At this point in our gaming group's history, the revolving door came into full effect.  We added three new players: Barry played Lorr, for a short time Josh who was later replaced by Joe as players for Toran, and finally Amber played Alliandra.  She lasted right up until the Night of the Infamous Flatulence.  Such an incident has never before been recorded in the anals of history.  I will not break the silence, and so I leave that night for another website to record.  However, since Dan was the purveyor of such an intense gaseous fortitude that evening...and she was technically his date...no one blames Amber for disappearing off of the face of the planet.

The new arrivals:

	Alliandra	Alliandra is an elven sorceress who survives on her charm as much as on her skills in magic.  She is a fortune hunter...hunting after her own good fortune.   Being the eternal opportunist, Alliandra seeks to attach herself to royalty, so that she may one day have the power and comfort that she feels to so richly deserve.
	Lorr	Leaving his home at a young age, Lorr went after the easy life.  In so doing he has gained the skills of a sneak thief and a footpad.  He lurks in dark corners to hit the easy mark.  He climbs "secure" walls to obtain valued heirlooms.  Lorr earned the ire of the three brothers Matthias, Andrew, and
	Taran	A paladin knight errant of the Order of Kord, Taran travels the land looking to prove his virtue by the might of his sword.  He seeks to redress the wrongs committed against those too weak to protect themselves. Taran lives a life of humble piety delicately balanced by the confidence of having the strength of Kord to back him when he finds himself in tight spaces.

The story may seem to have come to a nice and tidy conclusion...but things are never as clean as they seem.  Follow the further adventures of King Darius' rescuers in...
