TROUBLE WITH A WEIRD GNOME EVENT +0
DANGEROUS

Rumors of a weird gnome have spread through the kingdom. The gnome is described as a man with bright orange hair, glowing eyes, and a fashionably questionable red and yellow outfit. Some people report spotting the strange gnome lurking in unexpected and dangerous places, such as perched atop a steep roof or in the upper boughs of a tall tree, relaxing in a prison cell thought to have been empty, or wandering around in areas that are off-limits to casual visitors, such as in a private residence or the like. As the sightings increase, people begin to associate the weird gnome’s appearance with minor accidents or troubles, such as missing tools, illegible graffiti showing up in difficult to reach places, dangerous animals being set loose in the streets, and increasingly isolated fires that are caught and extinguished only moments before they could have spread to something more important.

Kingdom Skill: Intrigue; Leader: Magister

Critical Success: Kingdom investigators and spellcasters confirm that the weird gnome is likely no gnome at all, but a mischievous trickster fey, potentially from the First World. This knowledge allows your kingdom to both respond to the mischief more quickly and soothes the worries of the citizens. Decrease Unrest by 1.

Success: Kingdom investigators fail to track down the gnome, and while sightings eventually taper off, the damage is done and the citizens continue to worry. Increase Unrest by 1.

Failure: No explanation for the weird gnome’s antics are ever arrived at, and in addition to making the citizens uneasy, some of the gnome’s pranks had lasting effects. Increase Unrest by 1 and one Ruin of the party’s choice by 1.

Critical Failure: As failure, but increase Unrest by 2 and two Ruins of the party’s choice by 1.

Tandri's level is easy this time.

BUILDING DEMAND EVENT –1
CONTINUOUS DANGEROUS SETTLEMENT
Location: The largest settlement in the nation

The citizens of the affected settlement demand that a particular structure be built. The GM chooses one as close to the kingdom’s level as possible, preferably one that decreases Unrest when built (Orphanage). If you are willing to commit each upcoming Civic activity granted by this settlement to attempting the requested Build Structure activity until they succeed, you do not attempt the check.

Kingdom skill Politics; Leader Viceroy
Critical Success: You persuade the citizens to give up their demands.
Success: You quell the citizens’ demands for now, but they are not happy about your refusal to comply. Gain 1 Unrest.
Failure: The citizens continue their demands and some refuse to work in protest. Gain 1 Unrest and roll 2 fewer Resource dice at the start of your next turn.
Critical Failure: As failure, but violence during the protests also increases Decay by 1.

Resolution You can end this continuous event by critically succeeding or succeeding at the check or successfully building the requested structure.

So, we can end this one by building an Orphanage in town? I think that sounds like a fine idea, anyway.

Event? DC16: 1d20 ⇒ 18
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Crazy turn...

Sari works to help Tandri send diplomats to the lizardfolk. It goes really well after Nightsong shows its muscle and the diplomats are so impressive that it triggers Sari getting Deregar and Floare onto a full scale pledge of fealty. It goes very well and the lizardmen (presumably) sign up to be part of Nightsong.

This in turn leads to a rapid and well resourced expansion drive south west towards their turf, with hex claiming and roads to match!

Also 5 rerolls from Infamy and still gained 3 of that back with crit successes. (Maybe more if the 31 is a crit?)

The lizardfolk eagerly seek to join your kingdom. These lizardfolk have long regarded the eerie lights that glow and dance above Candlemere’s central island with something akin to religious awe, believing them to be the spirits of fallen lizardfolk heroes. The tribe’s current leader, Vesket, claims to be able to speak to one of these spirits. He believes it to be a revered ancestor and holds its advice in high esteem.

UNEXPECTED FIND, EVENT +0

Location The kingdom’s newest settlement

Local citizens discover a forgotten magic item while working on a construction site or while clearing out an old storage area.

Kingdom skill Trade; Leader Ruler

Critical Success: The citizens donate the magic item to the PCs as thanks. The item is either a permanent item or four consumable items (equal chance of each) of a level equal to your kingdom. The exact item discovered is determined by the GM. If the PCs decide to donate the discovery to the community, reduce Unrest by 2d4.
Success: The magic treasure is donated to the community; reduce Unrest by 1d4.
Failure: The found item is grudgingly donated to the community; reduce Unrest by 1.
Critical Failure: The recovered item is stolen before it can be donated, found to be cursed, or turns out to be worthless junk. Increase Unrest by 1.

-----------------------------------
Thanks to the preparatory diplomatic work done Nightsong's lands grow by leaps and bounds, encompassing both the lizardman village and the Old Beldame's lands before pushing further south-west to claim the old fort which once held the troll encampment.

With little room left to expand westwards Nightsong's ruler, not yet a queen but progressing rapidly towards that title in truth, begins to turn her eyes and thoughts eastwards...

Exploration continues as the scouts fill in the remaining gaps on the western side of the map. The settlers and their road crews make their way out to the troll encampment, marking the southwestern corner of Nightsong's borders - for now at least.

Increased size has brought increased resources and Nightsong's citizens enjoy prosperity.

Hex: Amid an overgrown section of blackberries lies a hidden cairn of stones marking the grave of a long-forgotten warrior. Toppling the stones and exhuming the body takes 30 minutes of work. The skeletal corpse still wears tattered remnants of hide armor, and the skull displays a crushed-in wound that spelled this barbarian’s doom. Of all the barbarian’s gear, only a strange ring made of green wood on one finger seems of interest. The band depicts several tigers chasing each other; it’s a ring of the tiger.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Nightsong continues to push its boundaries, heading east towards the lake in the mountains. Moving along the river is simple and smooth, but once the settlers reach the lake there is a major dispute between two factions of the settlers. A number are afraid to continue northwards to the 'haunted hills' where at least two separate expeditions have disappeared in the past. This halts any further exploration until a well equipped team of adventurers are sent out from Stag's End to clear the area. They return unharmed, but with a number of trophies which reassures a number of the settlers.

Back home Danteville continues to harvest timber for walls, in case of further goblin attacks, and in Nightsong itself a gorgeous mansion - the most elaborate building yet constructed in the small kingdom - rises next to the town hall. As the month ends and construction is complete Sariana officially moves in and takes up residence in her new 'palace'. Her two girls move in with her and Deregar moves up in the world as well, taking the 'ruler's apartments' in the town hall.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Nightsong is a hive of activity as Sariana sets a number of plans, both new and old, in motion. Deregar is put in charge of the continued scouting efforts to the east - although they are hampered by difficult conditions in the foothills. Tandri meanwhile conducts a little 'clandestine business', reminding the less-than-legal elements of Nightsong's growing population that their lady is well aware of their presence and expects her fair share. Floare is dispatched north at the head of a substantial envoy to treat with Restov over the two nations future borders. Sariana wants Fort Serenko and she trusts her Grand Diplomat to get it for her. The Lady herself spends her time taking the pulse of her subjects, keeping a close eye on comings and goings as well as any reports of unusual events...

Meanwhile a large group of colonists sets off eastwards and claims the recently built hunting lodge on the banks of the Gudrin as the nucleus for a new town. As a growing kingdom Nightsong is becoming rather expert in building and houses soon rise on the river bank. Meanwhile Danteville's new defenses are nearly complete and the kingdom looks forward to having some lumber available for purposes other than building walls!

----------------------------------------------------------
When Floare returns from Brevoy she finds Nightsong in the grip of something approaching martial law. After whispers from her spies that a new cult has established itself within the kingdom Sariana sets Magister Harrim on the job and when he proves less than effective she takes over personally and conducts a thorough and brutal investigation. The cult is swiftly rooted out and crushed with alarming thoroughness. Sariana, Deregar and Tyr personally lead the assault on their new headquarters and leave little more than a smoldering ruin filled with exsanguinated corpses behind them.

Three cultists survive for trial, where they confess their crimes and are immediately executed by Lady Nightsong's own hands - the punishment for traitors who have betrayed their oaths of loyalty. Tandri meanwhile is kept busy, not only cataloging the cult's valuables (which have been reclaimed for civic use) but also in recording and analysing the information which she extracted from the cultists the night before their trials.

Sariana is away when Floare returns, leading a counter-raiding party with Amiri to dispatch a pack of wargs who have journeyed up from the south to claim Howl-of-the-Night-Wind's former lands. They return somewhat blooded but largely unscathed, bearing numerous fine pelts. Tandri is given first choice of the furs, with Floare getting the second. Tyr already has his choice of luxury goods, as is fitting for a dragon!

Spending 1 luxury on making Tyr happy and getting Sari's girls some nice fur cloaks. ;)

-----------------------------------------------
With Floare's 'transformation' leaving the Grand Diplomat 'indisposed' for the month Nightsong finds itself functioning at something less than its best. Deregar oversees the usual reconnaissance missions but the scouts prove rather lackadaisical and it isn't until the Viceroy sets out to the east himself that he receives something like a real effort. When the reports finally come in it is clear that almost everything east of the mountains has been explored, at least partially. Jubilost is delighted and immediately petitions for permission to journey east to Varnhold.

Tandri concerns herself with Nightsong's continuing expansion and in particular, the issues this is causing to food production. She spends considerable time bartering with numerous different merchants, exchanging gold ore for foodstuffs to rebuild the kingdom's reserves after a public distribution of grain. A large selection of farm tools are also purchased and make the difference as the plains to the east of Danteville begin to sprout golden wheat fields. This task is barely within the competence of Nightsong's citizens however and Tandri resolves to discuss this with her Queen as soon as possible.

Said Queen spends a lot of time sequestered with Floare but, when she does reappear, busies herself with quelling the goblin tribe newly discovered on Nightsong's borders. Progress is slow but Sariana's loyalists within the kingdom do a good job of papering over the cracks that emerge with their leader unavailable for so long.

Peace returns to Nightsong and with it prosperity. The economy is proving extremely resilient and apart from a perennial shortage of lumber stores are nearly full. To that end Sariana commands further expansion in the Greenwood, where a new lumber operation commences, while Deregar continues to lead explorers in the mountains of the east. The ruler herself can be found in Danteville, where after nearly a year of work the town is at last completely fortified!

Floare meanwhile leads diplomatic overtures to the goblins of Greengripe and, with the help of copious bribes gifts, wins their fealty to Nightsong. Tandri, as always, is industriously working from the capital, maintaining her web of contacts and contracts, although personal matters keep intruding on the tieflings mind and leave her work less effective than usual.

------------------------------------------------------------
Nightsong continues to expand to the west as the oncoming promise of winter heralds a time of quietness. Further logging camps are established in the Greenwood, where quantity helps to offset the issues of sustainable logging which has been holding the kingdom back (pesky dryads!). Due to Danteville finally completing its walls there is less lumber expenditure for a while and the kingdoms stocks refill nicely.

The only notable event is Deregar's overseeing of an archaeological discovery in the mountains - which causes much excitement among the populace.

Deregar and Tyr personally head into the reaches to oversee the archeological dig. "Humans don't appreciate what the past can teach them," the dragon opines as they wait for workers to uncover the sight.

------------------------------------------------------------
With the western frontiers largely sorted Nightsong claims a huge swathe of land on its eastern borders and does so completely unchallenged. Efforts to capitalise on this new land are largely ineffective but at least the land is claimed and can be held in the future.

The only downside, as reported by Tandri, is that continued expansion is beginning to strain Nightsong's food supplies and the kingdom will be running a deficit for some time to come unless more farmlands can be established. That is not, however, the kingdom's forte...

Nightsong has levelled up to 8.

- Skill Training: Agriculture (since we suck at it and desperately need to make more farms!)
- Feat: Free and Fair (bonus to decs of fealty and a free reroll on them)
- Ruin resistance (Strife)

------------------------------------------------------------
Lamashan is opened by Sariana's birthday and over the past few years it has grown into quite a celebration. As usual the day itself is decreed a holiday and the population takes time off from its labours with great delight. The day itself is quite spectacular - Nightsong's growing reputation as a kingdom is beginning to attract both 'diplomatic gifts' and tribute from its various fealty tribes. These gifts, both clandestine and not, flood into the kingdom for the ruler's pleasure - prompting a vast boom in construction and expansion over the rest of the month.

In Stag's End a fine new embassy takes shape, a place for the diplomats to come and talk, as well as something of an office (and throne room) for Nightsong's grand diplomat. Danteville completes a town hall as the new center of civic pride and Oleg is overwhelmingly voted in as mayor. He immediately refuses the position and (to her surprise but no-one elses) Savannah is voted in with even more votes than Oleg - since he votes for her and lifts her arm so that she votes for herself too!

The flood of resources extends to every settlement in the kingdom, for a kingdom it is truly becoming. Greengripe constructs a 'secure facility to hold captured monsters' or a jail if anyone who isn't a goblin asks. Tatzlford gets a new herbalist and an inn springs up in Blomford. Combined with the new farms that Tandri supervises in the heartlands and an experiment in mining the mountains Nightsong expends a truly vast amount of resources and does so with remarkable success. Sariana has good reason to congratulate herself and her citizens as she officially opens the embassy - there are few lands who can match them now.

Tandri the level eight

Captivating Adoration
You become intensely entrancing, and creatures are distracted by you as long as they remain within the area. You can exclude any creatures you choose from the effects. If a creature is in the aura when you Cast the Spell or when it enters the aura for the first time, it must attempt a Will saving throw. If a creature leaves and reenters, it uses the results of its original save.

Tandri the ninth

After three nights with her mistress in full primal mode, Tandri wakes to a flutter of activity behind her... well, attached to her. Two translucent wings of various shades of fuchsia wrap around her small pink frame. Her succubus bloodline develops further.

A long winded way of saying she now has Divine Wings as an ancestry feat.

Nature became master and she has access to level 5 spells now: command level 5 to affect 10 targets at once, very vampire-y, and heal level five to support our one living teammate :)

I also changed up memorized spells to give her Restoration which if Tandri was thinking properly over those three days, she could have memorized to reduce stupefied.

Sari's way of dealing with it was much more fun! ;)
