Fools & Flagons

Last time of the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests had delved deep underground to rescue some locals who had fallen into a sinkhole at the harbor's edge. Speaking with the survivors, they learned that something massive was moving through the underground and was likely the cause of the blight afflicting the surface. They also learned of a pair of nests nearby that they had barricaded to keep themselves safe. Resolving to rescue the pe...

Last we left off on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests launched a rescue mission to save some locals that had been consumed by a massive sinkhole. Going deep into the earth beneath the Kudong Harbor, they traversed through winding tunnels that looped back on themselves, fought off vicious creatures that lurked in pitch black waterways, and eventually found nearly twenty survivors from the surface; One of them being Haru, the older...

Last we left off, the Tempests had delved deep into the ground beneath the Kudong Harbor in Takatari in search of lost locals who had been consumed by a massive sink hole. One of these missing locals is Haru, the older brother of Tamami, a young elven girl they befriended. Through completely submerged tunnels, winding pathways, and large insectoid creatures that lurk in the dark, the Tempests searched for more survivors but have fo...

Picking up where we left off last time, the Tempests were helping to cure a rampant sickness that had befallen upon a coastal town along the Kudong Harbor in Takatari. Upon arriving, they encountered a small elven child named Tamami who bore a striking resemblance to Moriko. Tamami's parents were bedridden with the plague sweeping the area and not in proper states of mind to answer the probing questions from the Tempests. Tamami's ...

Last we left off, the Tempests were nearing the end of their quest to deliver healing moss to a blighted town along the coast of Kudong Harbor in Takatari. Along the way they picked up a new ally, Lakin, who had promised to aid in their journey if they would return the favor in the near future. As they help distribute the healing brew made from the Yutsushige moss, they encountered a family of elves with a child that bore a strikin...

Last time of the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests had successfully retrieved some moss that supposedly had incredible restorative and healing properties from the Yutsushige Forest after proving their worth to a trio of treants. Their next step was to bring the moss to a village along the coast of Kudong Harbor where an entire stretch was plagued by a savage illness. When they found their way to the Calm Water Piers, Lakin confronted...

Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests ventured deep into Yutsushige forest in search of a cure-all moss that supposedly grew on the roots of a "Weeping Sequoia". Along the way, the party discovered that they were going in circles despite Moriko's ability to know which way wasn't North and decided to take a rest before trying again. Some time during the last watch, the group was separated by a trio of Treants who wished to...

Picking up where we last left off, the Tempests ventured deep into Yutsushige forest in search of a cure-all moss that supposedly grew on the roots of a "Weeping Sequoia". After a short skirmish with a group of Trolls, the party proceeded with a little more caution. Soon, the light in the forest dimmed, the canopy blocking the sunlight until it was almost complete darkness between the trunks of the trees. Thankfully, Moriko has a f...

Previously on the Tales of Archeron, a new addition was added to the Tempests' roster: the Orc Warlock, Lakin. They encountered the Orc along the Western road leading away from Chunsu to the far off mountains that divides the continent in two. Lakin pledged his skills to their cause for as long as it took if they would promise to assist the Orc in his own daunting task: the destruction of a few orc clans. Luckily for Lakin, the Tem...

Last time on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests had gotten into a bit of trouble in the capital city of Chunsu, deep in the heart of Takatari. To pay for their crimes, they were placed under Country arrest and sentenced to community service. But they weren't tasked with cleaning up streets or helping the local orphanage.. They were given a supposedly very dangerous task that the Shogun had been loathe to risk his own manpower for....

Picking up where we last left off, The Tempests had been fairly naughty in the Takatari dynasty, murdering a sizable amount of Redguards who were attempting to apprehend them under the orders of the Shogun's Chief Advisor. After some hefty reprimanding from their acquaintance/kidnapee Tanaka, Kasumi decided that she would turn herself in the next morning. This was a lie however, as Kasumi slipped off in the middle of the night to r...

Last we left off on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests got themselves into a bit of a pickle. Early in the day, Tanaka had come calling saying that their presence was requested. Upon exiting the wagon, they discovered their home had been surrounded by a contingent of Redguard soldiers. Tanaka introduced the Chief Advisor of the Shogun, Okazaki, and then slipped into the Redguard ranks. The Chief Advisor demanded that the Shogun's ...

Last we left off on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests had a wonderfully spicy dinner date with their new friend, Tanaka, and learned a bit more of the dire nature of things around Chunsu and Takatari as a whole. The next day was filled with wandering shopping as Kasumi had many of her fellows buy clothing that would help them to fit in a bit better with the locals and Brick found himself a slew of books to read to continue his re...

Last we left off on the Tales of Archeron, (Many moons ago) the Tempests had traveled halfway across the Takatari Empire to the capital city of Chunsu to finally lay to rest Kasumi's redemption quest, only to be faced with hardship, horror, and a significant amount of red tape. Barred from seeing the Shogun personally, the Tempests received help from a local Redguard named Tanaka to set up a meeting with Taiko Suki, the Overseer of...

Last we left off on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests had made their way into Kasumi’s homeland of Takatari, but not the verdant landscape she was expecting to see. Dead and dying fields, barren farmlands, malnourished wildlife, and aggressive local monsters greeted them each day. Concerned for the well being of her home, Kasumi urged Cassie to travel day and night to reach their destination as quickly as possible, the capitol ci...

After a grueling battle against gargoyles and Iymrith, we rejoin the Mercs 4 Hire as they delve into the underground lair, to finally finish their task and slay the beast.

Last time on the Tales of Archeron, the Tempests descended into Takatari after encountering the two deities, Tlazocoatl and Shenshe, atop their mountain home where they gave their advice, blessings, and gifts to aid them on their journey forward. Making landfall, Kasumi became concerned with the state of her homeland. Much of the grass and vegetation is dead or dying. The vast farmlands are barren and there are few souls traveling ...

From the icy north to the High Forest, from depths of the ocean to the barren desert, the goofy, rag tag group of somehow highly efficient adventurers known as the Mercs for Hire have traveled nearly the width and breadth of the northern Sword Coast. After finding themselves in the midst of great turmoil and catastrophe the Mercs became the central players in a struggle between all of giant kind, as each clan fought to establish th...

As we proceed into a new chapter we'll take a quick look back on what has transpired on The Tales of Archeron, The Tempests had traveled to Aztlan so they could fix their companion Brick who had a faulty core. Traveling and fighting through treacherous oceanic mountains, the Tempests sought out the necessary magical stones, and subsequently discovered some interfering cultists skulking about, and gained a new companion, Moriko - Th...
