Description

From the introduction:

A warm spring day takes an unexpected turn into cold gray as the lightraiders are called from their training at Ras Telesar (Lightraider Academy) to the miserable Gloomy Forest in the Eagle Peaks region of the Dragon Lands. Master Carthia has tasked them with rescuing some precious talking animals that are missing and rumored to be held prisoner in a dungeon cave, including Featherking, one of the Rescuer’s most beautiful messenger eagles.

In this first part of the adventure, the lightraiders face many perils in the forest before meeting a rich Aladoth (Onceborn) couple who shows them great hospitality in their home. When their disturbed son enters a fit of rage over a map, the lightraiders are asked to intervene and save him after he runs into the woods having threatened to report his parents to the dark creatures at the cave prison. Part One ends with a dramatic rescue attempt, followed by the lightraiders being chased into the cave entrance by a large band of dark creatures.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Part One of this adventure deals with an Aladoth’s attempt to take his own life. Random results are put on hold for that small portion of the story due to the sensitivity and importance of the topic.

User summary:

This scenario presents an NPC's suicidal ideation during the course of the adventure. The PCs are expected to intervene at the moment of crisis.
