Noteworthy Broken Tusks

In addition to your party, below are some of the most noteworthy members of the Broken Tusk following, which numbers 74 strong at the outset of the campaign. While creating your character for this Adventure Path, consider ways in which you might already have friendships, rivalries, or other connections with your fellow Broken Tusks, including other players’ characters as well as non-player characters. Your Game Master can tell you more about each of the following’s non-player characters and help come up with additional members of the following to tie into your character’s backstory.
The Broken Tusk is led by five Mammoth Lords: Argakoa the Songsinger, her dour but willful husband Letsua, Merthig the Firekeeper, Nakta the Healer, and wise old Grandfather Eiwa. Of the five, Argakoa and Eiwa have filled their roles longest, followed by Merthig, Nakta, and Letsua.
At the outset of the Quest for the Frozen Flame Adventure Path, head scout Wipa has taken your party under her wing and is training you to become the next generation of great Broken Tusk scouts. Along with you, she is training Pakano, the great-grandson of Eiwa’s late sister and heir apparent of Falcon House. Though the web of friendships in the Broken Tusk following is complex, haughty and self-righteous Pakano is more likely to be your character’s rival or bully than a childhood chum.
Wipa and her sister Panuaku (one of the following’s best hunters) are the half-elf children of Argakoa and Letsua. Wipa is currently far into her own pregnancy, which is one reason why she selected the party and Pakano as pupils. Her best friend and the father of her children, Weohotan, died a few weeks ago in an accident while hunting aurochs with Pakano. Though all Broken Tusks pitch in when it comes to raising children, Wipa will obviously need time to recover from the physical tolls of childbirth, and it will be many moons before she’s able to serve the following as a scout again. In the meantime, others in the following, such as the spirited hunter Panuaku and the knowledgeable young herder Imek, will help further the characters’ training as scouts. As native Broken Tusks, these individuals can also teach the characters much about the history, customs, and values of the Broken Tusk following.
