About Me...
My name is Sean Holland and I have been a gamer for a very long time. Starting with war games and soon moving to roleplaying games, where I have stayed ever since. Gaming is my primary hobby, but not my only one, I am also an avid reader (fantasy, science fiction, history), watcher of politics and general geek. I hold a degree in History (BA, minor Philosophy) along with an unfinished MA in the same field. These days I work at Tyche’s Games, a small games and anime store in Athens, GA, and do some freelance writing for the gaming industry along with my work on the Sea of Stars.

  • The Toysmith family has been associated with clockworking, gearsmithing and golem making for generations, but they primarily stick to working in the Dwarven freeholds. Azania, a talented student, quickly moved from apprentice to journeyman. Her talents lay in creating more delicate toys and flights of fancy, things not usually found among dwarves, but immensely popular with other races. After much discussion, it was decided to send Azania to work outside the freeholds where her talents could bloom.

  • The Red Monks came and offered aid, buying blighted grain for fair prices only to destroy it, and trade what untainted grain they brought with them to feed the hungry. The local nobility searched for a remedy, magical or otherwise, but worried about the growing influence of the cult as well as their people. Agents of the King were dispatched to find the origin of the blight, and now the peasants gather to seek answers, seek hope.
