Our story thus far…
After being ravaged by the famed Shenzu Raiders , the survivors of the Blackbrand Mercenary Company were hired by Lord Calder to find the Vault of Graxus as his dying wish. Fresh bonds were forged on that quest, and The Green Dragon Brotherhood was born.
Songs of their exploits made them famous - famous enough to catch the eye of King Uldred , who sent them on a secret mission to broker peace with Nydissia .
Beset on all sides by trials and deception, the band braved mountain, dungeon, and sea to get a message to Melek, only to discover the missive was nothing but a magical trap all along.
Finding themselves responsible for Bess Ashglade , a young sorceress tied to a mysterious organization, the brotherhood returned to the Vault of Graxus and discovered an enormous Grey Ooze had been set loose upon the Argosian plains. They freed the Sentinel of Graxus, which fell before the awesome power of the ooze, giving birth to the Grey Guardian, last seen heading towards Crow's Keep .
The Brotherhood went North, forming bonds with the Thunderfolk , and following a strange map related to a being who fell from the sky. They soon realized they were pursued by the Shenzu Raiders, their sworn enemies. The two sides clashed near a strange, haunted tower, and the Raiders are no more. The tower was filled with Serpentfolk, spying on the Brotherhood.
Their travels led them to the mysterious Suurat Jungle, where they discovered strange items from other worlds, a thriving Serpentfolk community, talking apes, and an angry green dragon named Ur-Balat, who took umbridge with their name and signature green armor. They work for him now and have been charged to head for Melek with all due haste.
After a slight detour to Rainwall City, the Brotherhood defeated The Red, leaving Skarrow in charge of a criminal network while the rest of the party escaped through a strange glowing portal to another world - perhaps another dimension - filled with psionic creatures at war with the Serpenfolk but surely no friend of man.
While on the strange purple world, they encountered the Old Ones and their strange technology for scattering the sacred Slothshrooms around the cosmos. They also fought with and against some sentient Frogmen and encountered the mysterious Bandersnatch before finding their way back to the The Midlands, where they discovered a year had passed, resulting in an angry Ur-Balat and a Crow's Keep fully conquered by the Grey Guardian - including Graxus's own Order of the Iron God.
Luckily, they have a plan...
Can they defeat the Grey Guardian? How pissed IS Ur-Balat? Will they steal a kingdom?
People falling from the sky, strange whispers of an ancient time, yog bugs and a kingdom on the brink of war…these are the Tales of the Green Dragon Brotherhood!
