Snyde’s Interlude: Part 1

There are very few assassins and thieves in Tunaria that are not familiar with Snyde Cragsmear. He’s the first person a Human Rogue meets before he or she begins to train. Or, he was. A couple of years ago, Snyde abandoned his post as Master of the Qeynos Rogue’s guild. He recruited two of his top students and they went to Kerra Island to explore and hone their abilities. So when Snyde and his two students found themselves back on Kerra Island, they weren’t in the least bit lost.

The First Horseman: Part 3

The two Captains stood in front of us conversing about an attack plan. We were lined up in two rows, one in front of the other. We looked like an army ready to charge to victory and yet our enemy was no army at all. It was a single creature, possibly a Human but maybe just an Elf. He was sitting on his black horse on the horizon, completely alone and almost unaware of the troops that had gathered to slay him.

His stealth black robe covered him from neck to toe. The only piece of armor I could make out at this distance was his dark blue helmet. It reminded me of a battle worn helm I had once seen in the Freeport market. On his back hung a long Zweihander that had a whitish-blue smoke pouring from the blade. There was a Paladin standing in the front row that carried a similar sword. Yet the Horseman’s looked much longer.

The First Horseman: Part 2

Barbarians are some of the worst guests known to Tunaria. They wake up after just a few hours of sleep and always insist on doing their morning exercises. On this morning, a few had gathered together with some of the full-time Castle residents and were limbering up before the journey to the Northern Pass.Their huge bodies, some standing almost nine feet tall, caused the ground to shake as they went from standing to sitting and then back to standing again. God forbid they start doing jumping jacks.
