Introduction
However, when Asarin needs order and structure the most, the town is swept into a sort of insular chaos, as seemingly random, destructive events begin to coalesce in a dark pattern. Superhuman (and inhuman) forces rise up against the town, strange enemies raise their windswept faces towards the city, and a devastating snowstorm begins to brew over the region, fortelling of a great change in the city, and perhaps of even the atmosphere itself...
Alex Jones proudly presents this premier Forgotten Realms campaign. Beginning winter 2006, the game features newcomers Kathleen, Penny, Brian, and Steve, and introduces new elements to plots that began to weave together during the Shackled City and Awakening campaigns of years past. Join the cast of creative spellcasters, cunning diplomats, stealthy acrobats, exotic creatures, and wilderness-hardened fighters in a game where trouble trails a bloody line in the snow, and the most insidious forces of all remain shrouded in ice, hidden and clandestine.
