We had a great session 1 @gmbenguest.bsky.social was a spymaster-absolver & i was a general-herectic. My pc had the favor of our monarch and their heir which made Ben's pc want to start exposing my heresy to gain more control. It was super fun w lots of drama! I'll give more thoughts in the replies😊

Starting at level 6, you and your party are members of the Red Gaurdians for the town of Bright Hold. You respond when the town is in crisis. So when a Dragon attacks your home it is your job to respond, and your job to make sure it can't happen again.
