Sir Shane's Story (Legend in the Mist)

Sir Shane happily accepted the invitation to join Kyle at his dinner table. The knight joined the locals in their prayer, then reached for his visor to open it just enough to reveal his mouth. However, his hand paused halfway there. After a moment, both of the knight's hands moved to grip the helmet and remove it fully from his head. Once he had placed the helmet down by his feet, Sir Shane commenced his own dining.

"What brought you our way, Sir Shane?"

The question startled Sir Shane slightly. But other than that, he kept his response fairly even. "I... was pointed this way by a huntress of Barleytown when I told her about my quest." Sir Shane answered. "Her name was Elaine."

Italian style fantasy should be alright. Especially in the Venice-like city of Acquascura.

As for lore that helps you get a feel of the setting, here are nine pieces of lore to start off with:

• Every god from every setting is present in this one.
• Adventuring is seen as an uncommon yet respected profession, though there are no adventurers guilds or any other such organizations of the like.
• Many traditions and superstitions across the world concur on one thing: Being interesting or entertaining brings you good luck.
• Acquascura has been menaced on and off again since the day of its founding by an annis hag known as Old Annie Ogrehugger. As a result, the city has an abundance of 'bad seeds', children who have been manipulated into evil ways by the annis hag.
• Every so often, a night hag by the name of Nanna May Midnight sets up a cult in an old abandoned tower three miles north by northeast of the city. It is said among the people of Acquascura that whoever defeats the cultists earns an audience with the night hag, who is rumored to have the power to command the very forces of fate itself.
• The denizens of Acquascura are a passionate, deeply emotional people. Whirlwind love affairs and deadly duels are a common occurrence.

Di'Siveks: Adventure (A D&D 5E Game)

Sorry for taking so long, everyone. I misplaced the file I'd been keeping my notes in, but that's all sorted now. The final preparations are almost complete. There is just one more thing I need to do.

Expect to receive a PM some time soon.

Yeah, I've got a fair amount of lore figured out in my head. Was there anything in particular you wanted to know?

Sir Shane's Story (Legend in the Mist)

Yeah. Let's do that.

Eidolon: Conspiracy Theory

"You needn't worry about imposing. Reality itself bends to my whim. Even your most outrageous request would be a trifling matter to me." Luka explained. "Regardless, I appreciate your offer of assistance. I'll be sure to take you up on that offer should ever I have need of your talents... Now then, I do believe I have all I need to make a start on your living arrangements." Luka held out his upturned palm and flexed his will power. A moment later, a Master Ball from the Pokémon game franchise appeared in his hand. "In here, you will find an endless expanse of pine tree forest suspended in perpetual night." Luka stated. "Currently I have a full moon providing a little light in there, but I can turn it down if you desire. As for people, you'll find no one else save yourself in there, though I can add wildlife and the occasional tourist if you'd like me to. I would also be dropping in every so often to check up on you as well."

Also, if you have some homebrew ideas, I'm interested.

@third eye

I'm currently running a D&D game on this site that uses a homebrew setting of my own design. Almost all of my DMing experience comes from that setting, so I'd be best suited to running a game set there.

Sir Shane's Story (Legend in the Mist)

Sir Shane turned his gaze westward as he took in the words of the priest. As much as he wished to continue on and see to this trouble once and for all, he knew that would be unwise. The closer one got to the Craggen Highlands, the more likely it was that danger would be encountered. Anything from the inanimate hazards of the wild to the more violent beasts that dwelt there. Not to mention the highlanders who made their home in that untamed wilderness held a particular and violent distaste for outsiders. Add onto that this new threat of undead on the prowl, and Sir Shane knew full well - knight or otherwise - a man from the city such as himself would not survive long without assistance. Especially now that the night and all it additional dangers was only a few short hours away.

"Indeed." Sir Shane said in reply to Kyle's saying, keenly feeling the hunger within him making itself known after all that had happened since last he ate. "It has been a long, eventful day. And I could certainly use a meal after all of that... Come. We can plot our next move once our hunger is sated." Even though he said this, Sir Shane's mind could do nothing but ponder what would come next as the group made their way back to the hamlet. Kyle had said that either an army or a good tracker would be needed to survive a journey any further west than they had already come. Sir Shane knew of no armies in the Dales, but he knew of a tracker. Elaine, the huntress he'd crossed paths with in Barleytown. She likely possessed the abilities necessary to aid him. But would he be able to convince her to help him? Would he even have time to ride back and enlist her aid before the next set of dangers arrived at the hamlet?

For the time being, all Sir Shane could do was hope that a good meal would bring him the answers.

Do you have a preference?

Sir Shane's Story (Legend in the Mist)

"First, you make sure Willow gets home safe." Sir Shane said. "Once you have done that, come find me and Minister Kyle at the church. From there, we'll cleanse what remains of the creature. Then we'll follow you to where you made your discovery and cleanse that place as well. After that, the minister and I will follow the creature's trail back to wherever it came from and see if there is anything to be cleansed there as well."
