Their are a crownlander third child, resurrected by Lady Love as they died heroicaly for love. A near useless cavalier, his arm was broken, his lance shattered and his beloved stead was slain, by the time he arrived in a halfling village. A fire elemental was tearing through the forest, with all the water lost in a drought they couldnt ritual/ pray to the South Wind. While the village was being evacuated, he ran into the forest hearing about a star crossed couple who would sneak out to a cliff on the other side. he slew three fire elementals their, obsorbed their souls into items/ gems, and by the time he reached the couple, he could manifest an obediant fire elemental stead which carried the three through the flames and back to the village. there the couple left with the last of the evacuees, by this hero stayed in the village where they, with their steed could obsorb flames in the village and draw the elementals after them instead of the evacuation. when the evacuees found a river they called Rain Knights, but by then They had died. When they all got to the city of song, they spoke of the hero, and the shrine on the cliff which had magicaly dominated the stored elementals into the steed, and Lady Love herself would cannonise, resurrect, and raise to knighthood, 'Valentine' the young Flame

Lord in the crownlands, shes discovered these gems under her hillfort, but they are actually a geode prison of a Gith Lich, who can astrel project to move like a ghost through the great gem vain, and store psychic versions of enchantment spells in the gems. He is slowly corrupting the mind of the lord to desire more and order the dig to speed up. Some crystals aCciDentLy broke off in perfect sword shape, and these were enchanted to make the gaurds who were given them, super territorial over the gems and the hill, keeping them within the clan. One gaurd may have chased a thief (who the pcs meet) and then lashed out wildly at the public when they asked innocent wuestions about his sword. The farmers have stopped working, converted all to miners who are loosing their wits and 'diggy diggy hole' as per their crystal picks. They hillfort has raided a neighbour for food , by the time u arrive.

link up with the raided hillfort's punitive expedition. fight the crystal weilding and armoured cavaliers. bust into fort, past the terrified and unpossed servents who explain the lore, and that the lord is preparing something in her quarters, she brought her son in there and they heard screaming! Partys kills the summoned angel, busts in and finds her in a ritual circle, with her son dead (only 2 min ago, revivable) and a roughly carved crystal golem in the center. she clutches her son and looks totally confused, as the crystal golem shows the ghostly gith with-in, as it fights. Hopefully after the example of the punitive expedition holding the gem cavaliers, while party went in, will make the party divide. some hold the angel, some go through and res boy, some fight crytal golem. The queen is knocked out when angel banished, boy says "DONT PUT ME IN THE MINE MAMA PLZ!!" and the gith ghost slips beneath the castle into the mine below ounce golem broken. pcs will have to fight through the possessed miners with their new psyonic powers (think gene stealers) and survive a barage of enchantment spells launched from the opening in the geode. The crtystals could be all throughn in and the tunnel sealed up again with the cap stone/ outside dark rock of the geode before they removed it. Any enchantment spell shot into the geode repounds all through the geode bouncing into the Gith Lich a bunch, is automaticaly succeds. The rival hillfort lord talks about this clan's history of nearly loosing it. theyve had two child-lords in the past 50 years. wheather by bad governance or bad luck this clan has failed its people, and mine. we will take over these responibilities. keep that monster contained, at least until we can kill it, or bring some god in on this. We had better tend to the gaurds and peasents of this place, keep an eye on them, but they should be fine now. Lady Leonarda, will need specialist help, little leon two, but i will seperate them, at least physically. use Joffery pic from below this one, as a pic of Leon later on. The neighbouring lord tries to get him to marry his daughter. she not happy about it cus hes moody but not in the poetic way she likes, but hes alright, aestheticaly and is really humble which is rare. He is fine with marrying her because it secures the alliance, to him that means a perm allie against the crystal intelligence, but really hed want to go live in a city. secure and far away.

a goliath death Knight from the city of Silk.

She ounce hunted for magic artifacts and got trapped in a tomb. Haunted by the ghosts there, tortured by the traps, starving, and praying to her god and ancestor. Then every other god, until finally praying to the deep one.

The deep one gave her shadow magic. She could fight the ghosts now, (same dimension/plane) and she made it to the end of the tomb. She got the 'crown of angels' embers'. An artifact from the first war, crafted by the forge father for a son of his.

Now the forge father wants her dead and the crown returned.

Death sends her as an infiltrator and thief.

She has the attitude of a mercenary, dosn't like being in the death Knight 'brotherhood'. She would leave it and never work for this opportunist who took her future and physicality/ (she's an unfeeling robot like, now). -when she was at her darkest moment. But her very body is formed from his element, surly she is bound to him. She sees him like a demon and her a warlock. Tries to say it's just like mercenary work.

she was a famous explorer. Others from her city would know her name and maybe her last quest, but not her fate for the past 10 years.

The crown of angel embers makes her resist light magic, keep the shadow form in sunlight and areas not 'of death'/home terrain. And it can absorb defeated angels. Originally crafted from a dead angel/loved by forge prince, so he could return his other allies like in Pokémon rather than other angels dying like his beloved one did. She uses it to waylay weak angels real fast and capture em. She conducted the ritual of (elfication) under the deep ones orders, she could do it again if she had enough angels, and then become a light demielemental? Free of the deep one, maybe joining the city of Silk again, (she's stayed away to keep her reputation not show her failure and enslavement). But actually going from shadow elemental to light ele, will fuse and split and tear her soul apart. Angels and shadows will war, each bearing her face and a fragment of her persona. When all defeated, her broken soul will be claimed by the deep one (repaired in the old neatherworld, which is a big deal that he'd have to go there to heal her) she hates the idea of living forever or being sent where deep one wants when she dies. She wants to be reincarnated in the city of Silk, like she deserves and always assumed.

thrown of Claws. (bears)

first guy is Voytek, he's a shurpa, kinda shy and awkward at small talk 'whats ur fav ? -flower, colour, pet? ever seen an undead? Ever see a city? What's ur home town like? Excuss for flashbacks.

That possum is was a normal girl, cursed this way by a higher demon deal. Lady love cursed her for using a higher demon to try and seduce the guy she liked. Oscar the owl bard has no idea the possoms weird drug-like performance is her last chance to free herself because he needs to kiss her volenteerily. He prob wouldn't if he knew the truth, and it won't work if he only knew half truth (she needs a bards kiss, u so it!). The wood elves can't talk to her because she's only speak in infernal.

Bearded Elf, half woodelf is a firm believer in balance of civ and nature. He's a druid and herbalist, and looks after the rare plants in all the mini biomes like the geyser and the swollow hole (blocked off casam with isolated and one of a kind biosphere). He hates politics and talks about power and just wants to let things be. If I subscribed to any politics it would be my wood elf family's, they expected me to kill people who tresspassed, any time I wasn't pregnant or mothering the next 'generation of warriors'. Murder and motherhood was not what I wanted for myself, obviously. I think power and politics inevitably leads to individuals being pushed into roles they aren't meant 'for the needs of the many.'.

owl bard is retired from the city of song and it's celebrity rat-race. He's settled here for a quiet life, and feels used by his fans who now don't remember him, but he barely knew the people he spent with the night with, so he's no better. He blames the city lifestyle, bares no grudges, stays here and feels a old and little dirty with himself.

masked druid is a typical look at the average tourist who comes here and hikes the trail.

This elf is an amature herbalist, from the vague west, who dosn't talk about his backstory, even lies about small stuff to Voytek. Shake voice and nervous. He really loves the druid stuff and would love to learn magic from a PC. He is secretly a city boy and dosn't do well in the outdoors and camping. Really wants help from magic to clean and stuff. He clearly never had friends. He's actually from the city of Silk and he's come to steal the rare plant that is super endangered. But a druid master-apprentice thing, a romance or kind friendship, can make him back down. He has a scroll that can teleport him under moonlight. "And now under the light of the moon my escape with this... It's day?! How long were we in there?". Voytek "two hours maybe" "I really thought it was longer, combat was quick... How long til sunset?" V: "do u mean sunset or Moonrise, because those are diff-eh-rent" "o right sorry, am moon rise then do do u know when that will be?" "Yes..." "Will you tell me please?" No... "Well that's fair, ya sorry..."

Last is a half-fire elf who is chill himbo, loves his ducks. Gladiator in the city of Ice on the weekends, builder in the log town otherwise.

A Game of Thrones, Daenerys III

Viserys came upon her as sudden as a summer storm, his horse rearing beneath him as he reined up too hard.

“You dare!” he screamed at her. “You give commands to me? To me?”

He vaulted off the horse, stumbling as he landed. His face was flushed as he struggled back to his feet.

He grabbed her, shook her. “Have you forgotten who you are? Look at you. Look at you!”

Dany did not need to look. She was barefoot, with oiled hair, wearing Dothraki riding leathers and a painted vest given her as a bride gift. She looked as though she belonged here.

Viserys was soiled and stained in city silks and ringmail.
