Eberron Party


   My second story is set in the world of Eberron. Where magic meets technology and airships are powered by monsters made up of the elements of air and fire, and trains run on tracks powered by air elementals. The story is set four years after the end of The Great War, a war that almost destroyed everyone and bore the creation of Eberron's newest race: The Warforged. This Warforged are constructs made of metal, stone, and wood. Due to their organic nature, they are not as resilient as other constructs, but they have thoughts and emotions (Even if it is hard to show them). I decided to play one such being for this story. I made him a young Warforged, having only been in the war for six years before he was decreed a free "man". He had earned the nickname "Brick" from his human companions due to his immense size and the fact that he wielded a huge hammer. He struggled to find a purpose for many years until he met Elora. She is a young artificer, class that builds machines, she was the perfect person to have on hand if he ever got too damaged as she could repair his systems. He discovered that the natural fighting talents he was born with were well suited to battling in arenas as a gladiator. He began fighting, with Elora as his agent/manager. His natural talents carried him far until he found his way in the nation of Q'Barra, in the city of Adderport. This is where our story truly begins.

   My mother is also in this game, and here she is playing a Barbarian named Ariana. She came from Cyre, just like my character, and was unable to return with the whole nation suddenly "exploded" and turned into a desolate wasteland, her people gone, she sought purpose the same way "Brick" did. They fought alongside each other and sometimes against. and because of this, they formed a natural friendship. When they heard of the event in Q'barra, they both went without hesitation.

   Five miles outside Adderport, we met a young Halfling named Marina who owned a lighthouse/Bed and Breakfast on the coast. It was quaint and cheap, so they got lodging there. She joined us as we set out for Addeport as she needed supplies and then was suddenly dragged into the plot with the rest of us.

   The last two members of our party are made up of two new members to our group. The first is Grimsteel the dwarf Ranger who pretends to be tough because he is a dwarf, and that is how they are supposed to be..... And Daedrathrall Angora...Don't let his name fool you, he is a dangerous Drow Assassin who would probably kill you for a copper. We call him Dae or Daedrath for short.
