Player Setup: A Call for Assistance

The newly christened “Hawktail Coalition” (CY 9169; Pelmon, Monaides, Glois, Tufflim, Bondeu) has set aside differences and finally been brought together by the incursions from the dark-spawn enemy. Pelmon and Glois are bearing the brunt of the raiders’ incursions, with the main advances from the Hawktail Hills out into the Blue willow Valley to the south and Scael’s Basin and the wheatlands’ of Glois. The containment attempts have resulted in great losses and spreading raids from the Orrish. The west foothills of the Hawktail Hills are the site of constant battles – a half dozen smaller breach tunnels with defensive fortifications at their entrance have taken a tenacious foothold.

The League of the White Lily in the Riverdan of Monaides has brought in professional mercenaries from the northern merchant cities and made a formal alliance with House Du’Orlok and the “Stone Horns Druidhold” of Pelmon Ridge to contain the dark-sapwn.

[i] DC 17 History/Lore Riverdans (Intelligence)

In CY 8802, after the calamity where the druids flooded the area with White Lake, the area became abandoned. Over the years, it began to be referred to as the plateau of mists – strange fog banks would roll over the area, and mists would form when it rained. Bad weather could form in a matter of hours at times – seemingly with no relation to the rest of the area.

Getting There

The fort is remote, but with a commanding view. To get there you will need to go through the old abandoned high Maithen Plateau, and follow its road to even higher to the Dovender Valley.
