Introduction:
Your entire life you’ve spent here in the borderlands between Shadowdale and Tilverton at the outpost with your family. The Spiderhaunt woods to the north kept trade w/ Shadowdale down a little, but with caravans coming up through Cormyr through Tilvers pass it was only a little annoying, plus the keep had plenty of adventures to keep any wildlife at bay.
A couple years ago Shadowdale sent the call for troops. Shadowdale was being attacked by the Zhentarim, and Drow had once again struck from the tower of Ashaba. So every able-bodied man was sent for the war. The war was won but the repercussions were devastating. Few men returned home, mostly grizzled veterans and a couple wounded men with limbs missing. The harvest was poor requiring the young and the women to pull what they could from the fields that had been left untended by the men folk and their war.
Drought came in the spring and crops withered and didn’t grow. Caravans were sent from Shadowdale and Cormyr, but then Cormyr became engaged in something in the Stonelands leaving only relief from the north. Unfortunately the denizens of Spiderhaunt woods have gotten desperate and caravans have stopped. Winter is nearing and food is scarce.
The few adults left in the village and keep say to hold tight and eventually troops will win through, but it means for a harsh winter. You and your friends have determined that its up too you. You grew up here and you are convinced you are the town’s only hope. Yeah you are under aged being in you early teens and tweens. But what is mother going to do, ground you?
So you’ve collected what you could around the house to help in your mission. Collected what little you had in your piggy bank, and made you way up to the keep to get your trust fund and try to equip yourself and meet up with your friends to save the day. Hopefully you and your other young friends are up to the task, your town needs your help, even if they won’t ask for it!
