In any case, it's really cool to see how the Stormblades are being used in the various Cauldron campaigns! Anyone else have any Stormblade stories to share?
Stormblade stories eh?
For my players it went like this...
PCs: You guys are so snobby! You're trying to goad us into a fight and could you stop trying to steal our jobs (adventures). Get off our kool-aid!
Stormblades: (with a snobby laugh) Yes, I think I understand your street slang well enough. We will leave for now but remember we are very influential in this town. You won't operate here for long. This is our town!
So this went on for a while. The PCs joined the Cusp of Sunrise and had an enlightening, mind-expanding experience with the Stormblades (also members).
PCs: What is this stuff? You called it the house Leaf?
Stormblades: Yes. Now that you are adventurers of marginal wealth you can enjoy some of finer things in life.
PCs: (After much wine and much of this "leaf") Man, I feel funny. Also, I see this little ball of light and its talking to me. Is that normal?
Stormblades: Totally.
So, after many nights of hanging out at the Cusp and with some shared intelligence and experiences, my party is allied with the Stormblades. My party's rouge, Therival, is romantically involved with Annah Taskerhill. Both parties are wanted by the government and are fugitives. But together, they are a powerful force.
