Shields of Sentynel

Once slaves sold as chattel in Otway, three enterprising young adventerers ( Roland, Hope, and Aesyn ) traveled north to a small ruined fort in the southern part of the Stride. Their new owner, Wayt, revealed his intent to arm them so he could retake control of Sentynel. Firstly, Sentynel would need they're stolen water back and thusly sent the three slaves to Lash's Cave, northeast of town. Our heroes deftly dispatched the goblins there and confronted their leader, Lash. Lash appeared plagued by a dark, consuming sickness which sluffed his skin off into ashy mud. The succumbing bugbear boasted that the hoped the stolen water doped with dragon bones kept his condition at bay. Before falling to pieces and reanimating, Lash warned the party of a "searing storm" slowly approaching from the desert.
Slaying the bugbear and returning with the town's stolen water, Wayt informed the heroes that he once was the towns constable. He was moved to a simple farm hand instead by the self-proclaimed mayor Callay. Wayt suspected foul play and wondered why they keep losing farmers. Hope was able to convince one of the fort's guards, to let them in to the fort to investigate what the farmers had been digging in its cellar. Deep underneath the fort, Callay had killed the farmers and sewn they're flesh into a horse effigy that he might transfer the life of his patron into. Mid-ceremony, Callay shoved a horn made of ground dragon teeth into the effigy's head giving it life as an undead unicorn. Chenval, awoken scorned Callay by ruining his soul in the ritual. Now, Chenval's resurrection was nigh impossible without divine intervention. The party imprisoned the now former mayor and decided to attempt to help the undead unicorn he had revived. Pledging to protect this town, Sentynel, and figure out the storm in the north, our heroes formed the Shields of Sentynel.
While traveling within the Starfall Mines, the Shields found an ancient Ariglass workshop and a dragon's lair where the lone lizardfolk shaman Six Tails was being held. Using him as a 'magic 8 ball' of sorts, Zyprexa the Echoes, was a schizophrenic dragoness who tried to interpret the ancient Ari texts and heard voices in the dripping water of the cave. The Shields were able to free Six Tails and escape Zyprexa and her legion of kobolds. Searching for a clan of his own, Six Tails joined the Shields acquire power and hope to find another lizardfolk tribe.
