  • A skirmish in the woods, using traps and terrain to corral the PCs. Snipers will open the combat once the players discover a spiked pit trap. Other traps will include quicksand and poison darts. The players have been hired by a Marquise; she is the sponsor of numerous orphanages in the province. She has been receiving reports of missing street children over the past few months and has hired the party to look into it. The party has determined a pattern to the disappearances; they seem to line up with the schedule of a visiting dignitary, Prince Immerel Lithose. The Prince himself seems beyond reproach; he is charitable, friendly and well-loved. The party suspects that someone in the Prince's entourage is responsible.

  • The elven settlement of Lithos has always valued peace and solitude, but few can stem time's flow. Led by House Lithos, the settlement has engaged actively with neighbors while attempting to maintain elven traditions. Successes in trade, cooperative ventures and mutual defence actions have built the trust of the populace in House Lithos, so few objected to the plan for all residents to submit to a shared dreaming state known as Reverie.

  • The Sinistral Manus is fiercely devoted to the members of House Lithos, especially the royal family. This group is led by a man that has been devoted to Rykos and his children for hundreds of years. He witnessed the events of Rykos' grandfather and saw what the Furum had done. The Furum almost wiped out house Lithos and half the kingdom along with it. He also was party to the cowardly deal the preists made with the god of House Lithos. Knowing that the deity has brought back the Book of Unbidden Rituals, the founder has vowed that the threat will be eliminated without making deals. The Furum will be destroyed. The Book will be destroyed. There will be vengeance against the God of House Lithos. He will be exposed as a fraud, a coward, and a petty trickster.

  • Kemuel has served in House Lithos for hundreds of years, and he thought he'd never see a Fel Rose again. Two of the three known texts used to summon the foul vine were destroyed long ago. The last was translated into a tongue known only to Kemuel and the god he serves. At the time, the two entered into a friendly pact to protect House Lithos. The gods, however, are not keen to keep secrets or promises. Like any other creature that loves to talk, a god can only be trusted for so long.

  • The leader of the Brotherhood of Infinite Nights believes in elven superiority; elves are the longest-lived race, and he believes the most intelligent and wise. His empire is more than a criminal one; it is the seed from which a stronger, more decisive elven nation will grow. For Caius, each member is a future citizen and a future soldier.
