Session 7: Into The Mountains

The Nine Lives, alongside Sirus Whitefeather and two-hundred members of the Aurelian Vanguard, partook in a festival in Rocktown. Just after midnight, the town was assaulted by dragonborn who rode in on the backs of giant lizards and kidnapped dozens of civilians. After interrogating a dragonborn captive, Sirus told The Nine Lives that they must chase the dragonborn and rescue the captives before they become sacrifices to the barbaric tribe.

Session 6: The Dragon's Whereabouts

The Nine Lives, after a short meeting with Vega Wardragon, have become independent contractors of the Aurelian Vanguard. They have accepted a mission from Vega to travel north, just behind Sirus and a platoon of two-hundred soldiers, and discover where Dalakar is, what's he's been doing, and if possible, put an end to it. In the meantime, Vega and the rest of Dollet's guard will look into the presence of the spellcaster known as Kane.

Session 5: Threats Near And Far

The Nine Lives managed to prove that Rham of Vinbold acted in self-defense when he burned three people alive. In their pursuit of the truth, they also discovered that a man named Kane, who they believe to be a powerful wizard, is trying to make use of renegade members of the Onyx Syndicate. On the same day they also discovered that Sirus Whitefeather, a member of the Aurelian Vanguard, also has memories of a life spent in the city of Waterdeep.   In the morning Sirus will be headed north to the Contal Mountains with other members of the Vanguard to assist the dwarves of Petrichoria with fighting back against the dragonborn in the region. That same morning, The Nine Lives have a scheduled meeting with Vega Wardragon on the nature of their working relationship.

Having followed Vega Wardragon to Courthouse Six in the Guild Ward, she and The Nine Lives interrogated a red dragonborn after he was arrested for burning alive three people and beating another into a possible coma. During the conversation, a group of brigands attacked the courthouse, slaughtering most of the guards, but were ultimately thwarted by Vega, her warrior-comrade Sirus, and The Nine Lives. Their goal: kill the dragonborn.

Session 2: The Beast of Marston

Still bewildered at the their intense, contradictory thoughts and dreams of the past few weeks, the Nine Lives began to settle back into the port city of Dollet when they heard a knock on the front door of their tavern in the early morning. A hunter from a nearby village introduced herself as Suli Grackard and explained that a horrible beast has been attacking and killing her fellow hunters, and that the same monster nearly took her life. When she heard that a group of warriors faced a dragon in the city and lived, she felt that they would be the next best thing to take on this monstrosity, as no other person has seen the beast and lived, to her knowledge (not to mention the usually available Aurelian Vanguard is stationed along the coast for fear of war with Vantice).   The following morning, the Nine Lives took a carriage and followed Suli back to the village of Marston, a twelve days ride. Along the way they passed a friendly group of orc riders whom watch the roads between towns for threats. Upon arriving in the village, they saw that a large number of citizens were riled up over a missing girl, named Anna Goldwind. Her father, Jeremy Goldwind, brought the Nine Lives to the well where she was told to fetch water, and the group found tracks that could be hers, but they mysteriously end a short ways into the neighboring woods.   Could the Beast of Marston have resorted to kidnapping? Or did someone, or something, else take the girl? Find out in Session II of A Dream Beyond!

Session 1: One Hell of a Hangover

Barry, Jakob, Kiin, and Violet had a successful grand-opening of their tavern, the Nine Lives. When they awoke, however, they were met with strange anomalies. Jakob's familiar was a puppy instead of a kitten, a citizen told them the current month was "Jantarr", which is no month they had ever heard of, and their so called friend "Rami", who has a striking similarity to Renar Everember, informed them they were in the city of Dollet, and not Waterdeep. Confused, the group began to look for answers, suspecting that perhaps someone had meddled with their minds through magic.
