In-Character
Read the following prompt:
The rhythmic lull of hoofbeats are a marching drum to the small group of pioneers and variety of folk you have found yourself amongst, packed into a wobbling wagon. The rolling plains of the Southern Reach and a clear sky stretch out all around you, the buzz of excited chatter a dull wash in your ears as your mind strays to your former life and what has led you here to new lands.
“Nervous?”
You blink, returning to the present moment. A kindly older woman sat near you is smiling warmly with a crinkle to her eyes.
“I can tell it’s your first time. Still remember mine,” she flashes a grin and leans in.
“Tell me my dear, why have you come to the Reach?”
The young female looks a bit sad. Her amber pupil less eyes look down at her hands and a soft, yet audible sigh escapes her lips.
“I come from the Ashlands. My family is now gone as is my greatling friend who protected me to the end. My family had made a pilgrimage to the Dragon’s maw. We offered tribute and lit candles as we offered up prayers. The great skull was a beautiful sight to me as it was my first time there. I was seeking acceptance of coming of age as an adult. I was hoping for a sign of whom I should court. Instead I saw a witch there and she read for me. I first drew a Chrysalis in reverse. I almost scoffed at it. Why would I change, what would I change? This seemed to make little sense to me. As we headed back to our tribe we stopped at the Bastion and as we rested I explored the area around the fort. The hotsprings were amazing and relaxing but most do not do well if they are outsiders in our land. I came across a small troupe of travelers lost and I brought them back to the bastion with me.”
Here her gaze closes and she wipes the back of her hand across her eyes as if brushing away something. She shifts on her heels before looking back at the older woman.
“This was what I was to change. I didn’t know it at the time sadly. When I got them to the fort I introduced my parents to them. My parents seemed nervous as these travelers were Arsa Sidhe and my parents followed old ways and distrusted them. Maybe I should have as well. They stole a sacred object from us. A stone of light that had been handed down in my family. It was said to be from the time of the death of the great fire dragon. Father had never left it out of his sight. It fell to me to find it. It truly did because I went back to the witch and this time my card was the magister in reverse. The choice was taken from me.”
She at this point sits near the older woman and sniffles a bit. Her small hands squeeze her knees and she bites her lower lips.
“I do not think I shall ever be able to return home with honor but I can at least try to see and learn from those I meet. Spread my faith, make an altar to the great Fire dragon. Maybe make a pilgrimage out of this. A pilgrimage to learn and Grow.
I have heard much about this place called the Spire. Is it really as tall as they say? Does it touch the sky? And how do you take this cold. I know most say the weather is nice but it is not like my home.
May I ask where you recommend I start my travels, is there any one place more accepting of my kind?”
How do you respond (in character)? (250 word minimum - please make sure to include at least three references to our lore in your response, with two coming from different pages in the Compendium. Two of the three selected should also be in-depth, avoid simply name-dropping lore terms. Tie the terms into your character's backstory. Why are they important to them?)
