D&D Today: Part 10

The Journal of Gars Sithersay : Golden Guardinel of Garland's Guardians Day 266 I joined the Brotherhood after my parents were killed. I wanted to stop the groups and organizations who felt they were above the law, free to do whatever they liked. Over time, thoughts of vengeance faded, but the desire to protect the innocent and punish the unjust remained. The laws of Snatta and the rights of her people must be upheld. But what of the rights of those who seek to subvert our ways and impose their own? If they cannot be reasoned with, then they should be stopped. And what of those who follow them blindly, not knowing the cause they are aiding? Ignorance isn't an excuse, however if laws cannot be bent then our rigidness would be our own undoing. The last of the problematic gnolls were slain a few days ago. Our worries are over, however the worries of their families is just beginning. Over two hundred gnollish women and children, left to fend for themselves. While capable of p...

D&D Today: Part 9

The Journal of Gars Sithersay : Golden Guardinel of Garland's Guardians Day 263 Our companion Kamtari has returned from his homeland and rejoined us in our travels. He doesn't always think his plans through, but he is good to have around in a fight none-the-less. The construction of my keep is well underway, thanks to generous contributions from the local nobility. One day I hope to have my own contingent of guardians to keep law and order. We are about to head out to find the last of the gnolls that have been harassing the city. Hopefully we will put that threat to rest once and for all.

D&D Today: Part 8

The Journal of Gars Sithersay : Golden Guardinel of Garland's Guardians Day 200 Things have been eventful to say the least! So much so that I haven't had time to put pen to ink until now. Our mission to Grumdorak Pass Keep was successful, although only two of the six thousand men took with us made it back. We honor their deaths by continuing to uphold the laws of our nation. The battle was fraught with much danger, at one point it seemed the oceans themselves were drained upon us, but we prevailed. Inside however, something much more sinister than mere skeletons and wights awaited us. Inside, we found spectres and mummies: the former warning us of the latter. The mummies themselves guarded what turned out to be a prison for some of the most foul creatures in the land today. To be sealed once all the inmates had arrived, the evil power of the ones already there was enough to corrupt the Guardians near by and the keep fell to the undead soon after. When we had gathered all th...

D&D Today: Part 7

The Journal of Gars Sithersay : Golden Guardinel of Garland's Guardians Day 163 My mind is at peace. I have come to terms with the death of Stalos . A hole still remains in my mind where I had felt his presence and I feel that it will be there for a long time to come. I think back to two months ago, when we arrived back in the city with the news we had to tell, and of the news that waited for us. After speaking with Jarconi , proxy for Sir Kedrith and Wabkeh of the Temple of Sho - Lum , we were brought before the spiritual and military leaders of the city. There we were tasked with the liberation of Grumdorak Pass Keep and given the command of a full contingent of Guardians to get the job done. I look forward to working with them. Another matter was brought to our attention. Six books, that had originally been until ted became so. They were to be ours on the successful completion of our mission, granted that we could translate them from the ancient language they are written i...
