Drake hunt of Darenberg

15 years ago the Salt Wars began. The land was scorched in war. Its sleepy hills were doused in blood as common-folk and soldier alike had to pick up arms. All to defend their homes and ways of life. The Wars have raged for 5 years; an armistice was agreed between the twin victors of the Duchy of Darenberg and the Orgun Alliance and their former enemy, the confederation of the Holds of Escanforen with the Kobold clutches of clan Blazeback all but wiped out.

For over a decade this armistice has held; fraught and tense, but held together by a begrudging reluctance to shed anymore blood so soon. Your characters find themselves the recipients of a following royal request in the mail.

"Adventurers! The humble Duke Daren the XVIII of Darenberg has requested your audience to prevent a calamity most foul and perfidious. A dragon has been spotted in the valley of Escanforen for the first time in well over a century and is laying waste to the Duchy's granaries and trade routes. You have all been cordially invited to make his most venerable acquaintance. "

How will you help slay this beast? Will you be the warrior or wise one to bring it low? Or will you look closer to try and see what's really going on in this valley. My Discord handle is auroracera2125. I have a choice of character sheets for people to peruse and request everyone interested to reach out to me to discuss which they would like to choose.This game is designed with new players in mind and I have experience teaching new players, the system itself is dungeons and dragons 5.5e.
