The Opening

I am in love with the daughter of Elven nobility, but her parents are long dead and cannot grant their blessing. I need you to escort me to the ancient battlefield of the Sun-Bleached Sands so I might ask them myself. I will pay handsomely if you keep the scavengers and the law off my back while I perform the ritual.

Set the Scene

The party is relaxing at the Azure Anchor, a sun-drenched tavern overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean sea, when a dishevelled man in black robes approaches their table.

Silas Thorne

Silas is nervous, constantly checking over his shoulder. He speaks in a rushed, academic tone and fidgets with a silver ring.

Background Lore

Silas Thorne is a self-taught necromancer of mediocre power but immense romantic devotion. He has fallen for Elara, an elf whose parents fell centuries ago during the Battle of the White Cliff. Local laws strictly forbid the animation of the dead, punishable by exile or worse.

What the World Knows

Silas needs protection while traveling to a coastal ruin to perform a 'ritual of family remembrance' for his fiancee's lineage.
