DM Blayde MacRonan's Of Aeons and Giants: The Continuing Adventures of Team Ruby (Private Campaign, Closed Recruitment)

Game Master Blayde MacRonan

The orcs attacking Trunau have been defeated, but the danger remains - the hill giant chieftain Grenseldek still wants the treasures of the tomb beneath Trunau. In order to protect their chosen community, the members of Team Ruby must leave it and travel to deal with this most imminent threat. Yet even putting down Grenseldek and her squabbling monstrous minions may not be enough to save Trunau. For there are stranger forces at play, and a storm is brewing on the horizon...

Since this is both a private game as well as a continuation of another game, and I already have some idea as to who will be participating in this campaign (due to active recruitment on my part), we're going to handle this like before.

My players will post their characters here, along with a description of them.

Liesel-Marie Frostvale is a young woman of Erutaki descent. She is obviously quite strong, just looking at how she moves, but she is not covered in bulging muscles. I think my vision of her has evolved as the game has carried on, so here's my current mental picture of her.

Just shy of 6' tall, broad shoulders but not so broad you are going to mistake her for a man, and a slim athletic frame. Her skin is the dark of a people that spends its time outside nearly every day of the year and her hair is jet black and long. Her attempts to control it are limited to simple ties to keep it from flying around, but even those are infrequent. In battle, her hair is as likely to be a cloud of black around her head as not.

She prefers informal clothes and interactions - she's not one for formal gatherings or dress and she really has one way of dealing with conflict - head-on, preferably with a blade of significant heft in hand. Her preferred weapon is a greataxe and the one she carries has an unusually heavy haft and head, even for such a large weapon, with many runes carved into its face, some barely discernible from age, a few looking sharp and distinct like they'd been cut yesterday.

Her black eyes regard you with an expression that defaults to a small smile, but they flash with a promise of danger when she gets angry or frustrated.

Tsadok is a grey-skinned half-orc, standing just over 6' tall, lean but well-built. However, he seems leaner than the typical half-orcs you've seen. He wears a common-looking long coat, fitted for his torsos with the sleeves removed and the lower half flared out a bit more than normal. It exposes his full-length dark trousers, tucked into his mid-rise tabi style, soft leather, black boots. A broad belt is slung across his right shoulder carrying his ringed blade on his back and a single strap around his waist.

His crimson eyes seems to peer into your soul, with the air of judgment.

”I believe that my character has evolved a lot over the last 5 levels and has changed mentally and physically. So here his new look going forward, for now.”

Rohan Scythe is a giant of a man for at least what you would think might be a man. Rohan frame while doesn’t appear very burly and strong makes up for it in physical agility and overwhelming endurance and health. This guy stands above the others in any room or city, coming out at an outstanding 7’11 foot tall, just 1 inch shy of being considered large in perspective. His skin is of a grayish color much like you would find for some harden rock, and his skin is nearly as thick as one too, with harsh rock like textures displaced around his body as though it would take a decent amount of force to penetrate his skin. Though much of his skin is tough, but looks much like a rhino hide. His face is chiseled and where hair once stood on his head now remains nothing but a bald replacement of skin. When he turns and looks at you, his blue eyes still were showing through as though they were gazed upon you and bright overwhelming sight. He wore what looked like a Chain shirt that would be nearly bigger than any other man of medium size would likely fit, and the chain shirt dirty as though there was sand and dirt mingled in the mix of it. Under the chain shirt was what looked like a simple white shirt that had its sleeves torn from it at the shoulders and looked raggedy. The chain shirt was long enough to cover down below his waist, but none the less he wore what looked like dark black pants that completely covered his legs, but where very baggy to say the least. Attached the bottom of his right leg was a buckled strap holding what looked like a ceremonial dagger that looked very fancy with gems inlayed in the hilt of the dagger. Rohan wore no shoes on his feet, but anywhere he went if he touched sand or stone his feet would simply vanish into the ground beneath him. A belt held the chain shirt down around his hips holding what looked like a really incredible Warhammer that was held there with a metal chain to prevent someone from taking it on the whim. There were other little pouches around his belt but not much else. On his back was a huge backpack filled with unknown amount of things, but this backpack didn’t look like any other backpack, it too had symbols sewn onto the pack, pictures of mountains and caves, as well as what looked like possible giants. Aside from this the man carried no other weapons and would always stand near what looked to be fellow friends. If you were mistaken you would literally thought you were looking at a Stone Giant, but you were not alone in that assumption as many people in the area were likely thinking the same thing. Stares were not uncommon for him in anyplace he goes.

As you gaze upon this strange looking figure and his dragon like head and face his golden eye watching his surroundings and towering over most at an easy 7’6” his scales looking almost black until the sun reflects their true blue color of his face as it looks like he is wearing a dark blue leather cape till you notice that the small claws at the neck are crossed and he unfurls them to stretch his wings and arms to show that he is wearing a black body suit with an open neck, short sleeves, and almost full-length leggings. With this, he wore a white cloth over his right shoulder and the left side of his hips as well as a wide leather band from his left shoulder to his right hip. Behind him, his tail whipped about absently. He seems to move with a hard step of that like a dwarf but more graceful and with purpose. The air around him seems to be acting strange as it creates an slight wind that has what looks like particles of sand swirling around him .

Since I never really gave a description of Aodhán (other than being a human of Chelaxian ethnicity), I figured that I'd do that here. So, without further ado...

Aodhán

Aodhán is a muscular, pale skinned human male that has spiky black hair with several bangs framing his face, lavender eyes, and a stubble beard. He wears a dark red shirt under a dark gray trench coat with frayed hems, black leather gloves with metal plates on the back and knuckles (called caestūs), and large gray boots. At the age of 26, Aodhán stands 5 feet-9 inches tall and weighs 175 lbs.

Though serious more often than not, this outward demeanor belies a wilder and more reckless side. Aodhán has a positive attitude and is always ready for work. He is steadfastly loyal and true to those he cares about and is driven to protect them, going as far as to hide his pain and emotions so he will not worry them.

And here's the description for the newest NPC that could be journeying along with Team Ruby.

Araki Aiko

Aiko is a human woman of Minkai heritage, with a small delicate frame, lean, but with medium shoulders and well-defined muscles (particularly noticeable with her legs). She dresses in blue and white robes consisting of several layers of cloth and an outer layer of silk intricately woven with gold brocade designs and covered with metal studs. At the age of 27, Aiko stands 5 foot-3 inches tall and weighs 137 lbs.


Colt is a tall, thin man, with the light brown skin tone of a man with Garundi ancestry. His limbs are long and gangly, to the extent that one would expect him to be clumsy and ungainly, but he moves with a cat-like grace. He wears pointed leather boots, simple dungarees, and a collared shirt under a long duster, as well as a wide-brimmed hat.
Riding low on his hips he wears a pair of Alkenstaran revolvers, Judge and Jury. His Rifle, Executioner, he wears on a back holster with a bayonet attached to the barrel. Two bandoliers of bullets cross his chest.
His duster is adorned with a silver badge bearing the crest of Alkenstar, a pair of crossed rifles.
By profession, Marshal Winchester is a dedicated Shield Marshal, but he can often be mischievous and has a strong independent streak. He doesn't always follow the rules, but he gets the job done.
