ALEM

---

Sound the drums, head on to war — seized citadel Alem has already been there for the lion's share of a year.

Under the Scavengers' guidance, the four sand worms the party captured gently graze underground corridors allowing the group to reach halfway up Mount Attevar. From there, they quickly infiltrate Alem through a bustling trade route.

Young King Deimar strikes a simple bargain: serve Alem in its bitter last days until inevitable downfall, and the citadel will grant access to its Beacon before the final evacuation is completed.

Sounds simple enough. Now, survive it.

Characters arrive today, with our first proper taste of event chaos due on 27-28 January. Get your character settled in, check out the setting and their assignment, and strike some CR:

These two will kill me.

But seriously also tell her all about this investigation and mystery while she pretends not to be a walking bruise

[clavesregni]

oh don't worry, she will. While gently placing ice packs all over Vi's body

[faceblocker]

what about that knot between her shoulder blades from her too-offensive fighting stance that isn't meant for endurance runs??? pls help

[clavesregni]

Caitlyn is not a qualified masseuse but if she must take on the heavy burden of rubbing Vi's large muscles back, so be it 😔

[faceblocker]

obviously that just means she needs to practice! not as if Vi would let anyone else give it a go
