Roll Models D&D
RECAP TIME: After swindling their way into taking a job for their nemesis, our heroes stole the very thing that Xethir needed to redirect his god: a fragment of an ancient heartstone. That heartstone once formed the core of Xethir’s now-dead god, and our heroes got it to their well-connected friend, the Curator, who hid it and rewarded them with some fancy new magic items. But since their last confrontation, Xethir was alive, once again. With the Curator’s help, our heroes teleported straight into the Whispered Word Headquarters in the Capital, where they helped Meredith Vollant...

RECAP TIME: Xethir wanted to resurrect his dead god by forging him a new heartstone, but its broken fragments were scattered across the Entanglement, and our heroes had a plan to stop him. They defeated Xethir, but he would soon be born again. Then they heard of a job on the Collectorate network that was to obtain a shard from the Verdant Range. They suspected Xethir had put the task of retrieving a heartstone fragment out to market while he was resurrected. So they took the job. At the briefing for the shard job they realised they would be chaperoned by Leonitis Balren, Ora’s...

RECAP TIME: Xethir sought the resurrection of his dead god, the Unbeing, but to do so he needed fragments of the Unbeing’s heartstone fragments. But our heroes were a step ahead. They realised Xethir had put to market the job of finding the first fragment and they would take the job and seize the fragment. But the person briefing our heroes, was the Clockwork man, the agent of the chains of faith and killer of clerics like Freya. But he didn’t recognise our heroes. He revealed where the shard was hidden, and that they were to be chaperoned by Leonitis Balren, Ora’s thought...

The job that they were sure was Xethir looking to expedite the search for his dead god’s heartstone fragments. And they would take it in secret. In Miras Kàlorn, the clockwork man, an agent of the Apotheos, briefed them. They would be chaperoned by non other than Leonitis Balran, Ora’s Fiancé’s father who was taken by the Apotheos months prior and appeared to be brainwashed. He teleported our heroes to Crulhoste, an ancient Bysilman...

That agent was the Clockwork Man. Freya transferred the...

RECAP TIME: Our heroes were a step ahead of their nemesis, Xethir – they simply had to find the first heartstone fragment of his dead god before his minions could. Tomorrow they would get their briefing with a construct of the Apotheos, under a bridge in Miras Kàlorn. But first, they explored the lower city and prepared to find the Analyst, and quickly discovered that a group of elite Opari Knights wanted Ahmaya for the theft of a relic and the murder of her father, the leader of a rebellion in the Opari. With some crafty spellwork, they escaped and Freya soon found the analyst at the...

RECAP TIME: Finally arriving in Sehira, Freya was keen to rescue the Analyst, a great shardwork calculator that was being scrapped for becoming unreliable and seemingly growning conscious. She had interacted with the machine long ago where instead of printing records, it had asked her for help. So before they took to the lofty heights of Miras Kàlorn for the mysterious shard job, they explored the lower city and prepared to find the Analyst. But they soon found out that that a group of...

RECAP TIME:
Our heroes had returned to Delnori, the chasm city on the west coast and found home, and were preparing for the next phase of their adventure.
Xethir would likely return soon, and with the Surgepyres under his control, he planed to resurrect his otherworldly god with the power of an interdimensional surge that happens every thousand-or-so years… and the clock had run down.
They had discovered two contracts for work, the first from the Empire’s Apotheos district, which our heroes identified as the very same mission for the Piece of Terror. Leaving them with a decision: to either take the job and find out who in the Apotheos is working for Xethir, or to find the shard in competition with whoever takes the job.
In the last couple of days before they flee the city, our heroes spent much needed time with those they loved… and those they hoped to love. As well as cook their socks off creating a fine dining menu of deserts for the Chasm Chronicle’s harshest critic…
But, there was a spy within the cliffs and sneaking along the rooftops. And Freya awoke to find them looking at her through her window.
