RECRUITING: Perils of Thunder Island

[Dragonwriter]

DM: Dragonwriter/Dragonson (Dragonwriter is my name on EnWorld, the primary host for the information.)
Campaign URL: None
Level(s): 5th to start, ending level unknown

Kingdom: The Empire of Ceomyr
Date/Time: Saturdays 7 P.M. PST (EDIT: More people wanted Sat, so no Tuesday.)
Expected Duration of this session: 2-3 hours each week
Format: Campaign
Adventure Plug: (What someone might have heard about the adventure before it started, or what the adventure involves.)
The Island of Thunder has been receiving colonists from Ceomyr’s mainland for many years. And for those many years, they have had to contend with the island’s natives, the fabled Lizards of Thunder. These great beasts have made expansion difficult, not to mention costly, both in gold and lives. Due to the problems inherent in learning the specifics of the inside of the island, the Cartographer’s Guild has finally put out a call for intrepid explorers, offering pay for explorers to detail their journeys within the island and to map sections of it.

Naturally, this duty is not without it’s hazards… Any foray into the interior of the island will almost certainly result in a meeting with some of the Lizards. Also, the Lizards have been growing restless of late. They have recently been actively attacking the cities when they used to be turned away by the massive stakes buried in the city walls. But truly, they are just one of the Perils of Thunder Island!

(The first session will begin as the party embarks on a ship to Thunder Island.)
Restrictions:
Any non-evil alignment.
Druids and Rangers will not be able to have dinosaur animal companions due to the current aggression of all dinosaurs exhibited on Thunder Island currently. Also, the 3.5 PHB Ranger is used, not Monte Cook's

[Typewriter]

Thanks for telling me how to get here from the openRPG thread. I sent you an e-mail requesting the campaign setting and some other misc. questions.

Thank you.

 

[Dragonwriter]

The Setting Guide is on its way. And if you have any more questions, feel free to ask them.

Oh, I forgot to mention another Restriction. We use the standard Ranger in the 3.5 PHB, not Monte Cook's Ranger.

 

[stevekro1]

Hi I'm from the Wizards of the Coast forum I saw you wanted us to register here. I registered and will be sending you a revised copy of my character sheet.

 

[Dragonwriter]

Well, it looks like the time slot is going to change a little. I'm getting more people saying that Saturday is better, so I'll go with the Saturday slot. It will still be from 7 PM PST until between 9 to 10 PM PST.

Character Biology:

Jeralt lived anything but a simple life. At the age of four while traveling on his father's trade caravan, bandits attacked and killed everyone, plundering the goods. Jeralt due to his young age managed to be a small enough target to evade capture. He sat crying over his father's body, his only mark the incident ever happened a scar on his right shoulder from when he was flung from the cart. A lizardfolk on his way back from a hunt by the name of Hrrash happened upon the scene. A bit of a hermit, Hrrash found young Jeralt amongst the carcasses and brought him home to his small hut deep withing the wonderful Forest of Gaunt.
Jeralt lived with Hrrash for the next 19 years, all the while learning how to survive in the forest, hunt and forage, fight, and speak both Common and Draconic language, as well as the ancient language Druidic. Hrrash was somewhat of a druid himself, his old mentor was one, and now he was passing on his knowledge to Jeralt, for he found an ambitious and eager to learn spirit within the boy, and decided it would be best for him to know it. And so, as Jeralt grew up on the pricipals of surviving in the wilderness, the knowledge of the druid came to be within him.
Life continued this way until Jeralt was of the age of manhood. As a right of passage, Jeralt ventured deeper into the Forest of Gaunt learning to become one with the forest, be a more powerful druid. As he progressed deeper, Jeralt noticed the forest was changing. The Forest of Gaunt, lying along the western edge of Paludosus, with its verdant expanse of great oaks and beautiful
glades was stricken by evil, slowly transforming the forest from a peaceful refuge into a place of malign intent. The forest Jeralt once knew was now a maze of firs and yew, with bogs and pools of stagnant water. When Jeralt returned to his master's hut, he explained to him what he has learned. Hrrash bid his pupil to go out into the world, adventuring, to gain more knowledge and power so one day Jeralt might return to restore the forest to its natural beauty. This is where Jeralt's adventure's begin.
