Character Backgrounds
1. Lord Soth Series (Castle Ravenloft Board Game)
- Fighter – Arjhan
- He has lived most of his life in hiding, defending his version of good and fighting injustice in the name of Kiri-Jolith. He is a flame draconian with a hatred for evil, he sees himself as an abomination made from evil. He is stoic in nature and will lay down his life if necessary for his companions.
- Cleric – Thorgrim of the Iron Head Clan
- A Neidar Dwarf raised in the city of Solanthus that follows Reorx. He has a brash demeanor with a zellios nature for destroying undead and drinking dwarf spirits. Fiercely loyal to his friends and has a weakness for finely crafted items of the forge.
- Ranger – Alan / Allisa
- He is a Human Ranger who is searching for artifacts to help save his small village. I’ve heard stories of the great treasures that Castle Ravenloft might contain so I will do whatever it takes to retrieve them and help my people. And I’m really good at killing stuff, sometimes.
Recap
- This is the fourth and last part of our customized Dragonlance themed adventure arc. In part one Thorgrim, a Niedar Dwarf Cleric of the Iron Head Clan and Arjhan, a Flame Draconian fighter for Kiri-Jolith entered a secret tunnel beneath Dargaard Keep in search of an ancient amulet that is rumored to play a part in the downfall of the Death Knight Lord Soth who plagues the lands of Nightlund. They were not successful in escaping with the artifact and fell in the darkness.
- The second adventure featured Alan, the human ranger of Chislev entering the dungeon after Thorgrim and Arjhan. The mists of Ravenloft surrounded them and transported them all to Sithicus. In order to escape they searched for the experiment to escape the mists but at the last moment it was taken by Azrael, Lord Soth’s seneschal.
- The third episode featured the exhausted adventurers combing the dungeons beneath Nedragaard keep, searching for Azrael. Lord Soth’s seneschal had bitten Thorgrim and the companions quickly discovered that the dwarf was losing his battle with lycanthropy. They finally discovered and defeated Azrael, ending the curse on Thorgrim and collecting the experiment to lead them out through the mists. Now all they have to do is find the exit!
