Adventurers
The Party
Six strangers in the same city on the same night — a sailor, a farmhand, a tinkerer, a wanderer, a scholar, and a caretaker of the wild. None of them know each other yet. That's about to change.
Keiki Mautaluk
Aasimar Druid — Level 1
Sailor
The Singing Isles
Bekah
Appearance
Wavy black hair, deeply tanned skin, sharp blue eyes. 5'1", 125 lbs.
What They Bring
The party's nature caster and healer — Faerie Fire, Cure Wounds, Goodberry, and animal magic. Her spell save DC is low (9), so she shines on buffs, healing, and no-save effects rather than raw damage.
Ebbory Wolfstalker Garndaliathro
Goliath Barbarian — Level 1
Farmer
Lumendal
Naomi
Appearance
Midnight blue-black hair, grey-blue skin. 7'4", 295 lbs.
What They Bring
The frontline tank and bruiser — the party's anvil. Rage and Stone's Endurance let her soak hits (17 HP, AC 14), Large Form adds reach and damage, and her weapon masteries (Vex, Slow) keep enemies off balance.
Tivrick Sprocket
Gnome Artificer — Level 1
Artisan
Lumendal
Phoebe
Appearance
Small, shoulder-length unkempt hair with goggles, round friendly face, covered in tools and pockets, gear glove on one hand.
What They Bring
Ranged damage and the deepest utility kit — Fire Bolt at range plus a big bag of spells (Cure Wounds, Grease, Caustic Brew) and clockwork gadgets. The party's gadgeteer, crafter, and Arcana brain.
Ish Basmati
Human Monk — Level 1
Criminal
Unknown
Levi
Appearance
5'4", 120 lbs. Chaotic Good. Believer in Basmatism.
What They Bring
A fast, slippery skirmisher — flurries of unarmed strikes, the party's best initiative (Alert), and stealthy enough to scout ahead or slip away. The mobile striker and infiltrator.
Acadia Strigidae
Aasimar Warlock — Level 1
Sage
Lumendal
Lara
Appearance
Pale olive skin, dark brown eyes, thick dark hair. 5'1", 120 lbs. Non-binary, age 31.
What They Bring
The party's lore and investigation mind (highest INT and WIS), with a familiar to scout and disguises to deceive. Very fragile in a fight — AC 9, 9 HP, and no attack cantrip — so keep her out of the front line.
Mossbell
Halfling Cleric — Level 1
Emerald Enclave Caretaker
Libby
Appearance
Curly, greenish vine-like hair tangled with twigs, and grey eyes. 4'5", 110 lbs.
What They Bring
The party's divine caster — healing, blessings, and the cleric spell list.
