Azazela's children.

Everything’s Fine!

Alikeri Kind - A dungeoneer/druid obsessed with mushrooms. She set out originally to create a general botany textbook, but became fascinated with mushrooms and fungus. Eventually she got caught in deep trouble investigating a sentient evil mushroom called the Bleeding Heart. After an incident that allowed the mushroom to grow over 50ft tall, and an ensuing battle, she made it her mission to track down every last Bleeding Heart and personally see to their destruction. She’s now a professor and an archfey, but honestly the tenure is a bigger deal.

Lightning strikes the same place twice!

Schmendrick The Abjurer - An orphaned wizard who traveled to Agaras to study the bismuth-colored lighting that plagued the area. We learned that he was related to Maximilian Goron-Del the Fourth, a Lich that had been terrorizing the peninsula, and that Schmenny was the only person who could destroy his phylactery (which he did, spectacularly, in an incredible display of crackling bismuth lightning). The ordeal killed him, but the party managed to bring him back to life with one last crafting of a True Resurrection potion.

The Fastest thing in the Feywild

Lyrshel Elmwhisper - A centaur formerly forced to participate in gladiatorial combat in the Giant’s Commune, Lyrshel was on a mission to return to her herd in the Feywild. She’s a bit of a lone-wolf who likes to get things done herself, and while her risky choices often came at a high price, they also yielded a high reward. While she was eventually reunited with the Elmwhisper tribe in the Feywild, she departed to start her own information gathering network, securing her position as an archfey, and the fastest thing to ever come out of it.

It’s A Great Day To Die!

Gresh’am, Son of Grellak, House Kurita - A Hobgoblin that was rejected by his tribe for insubordination, refusing to harm non combatants/women/children in a scuffle. He was hot on the trail of a giant magically altered wolf that had killed one of his escort clients with the Fighters Guild, and considered it a matter of personal honor to see to it’s demise. We eventually learned that it was commissioned by Finneas Hammerlock and created by Maximilian Goron Del the Fourth, and to Gresh’am’s honor, the party dealt with all three. He was accepted back to his tribe a hero.

Gresh’am would refer to the party to others as “my warband,” which eventually led to them being affectionately called “The Agaran Warband” despite their general lack of actual participation in war/killing, and the fact that not everyone stayed in Agaras post-campaign. The implication that they had become a small family unit during their short adventure was enough for the name to stick.

I can take ‘em!!!

Cullpepper - the rightful leader of a tribe of barbarians that call upon their ancestors to aid in battle. He’s got a very “wild child” sort of energy and has little to no filter... which, to be honest you should expect from a 7 year old. Mid campaign he proved his strength to his tribe and became their leader, utterly eviscerating a giant barbarian four times his size that had taken the mantle in his absence.

Born to Explore! 

Malotz Arykethen - a cartographer with an itch for travel. He’s a lover of people and cultures, and believes that each map he makes is nothing short of a love letter to a place he’s visited. While in Agaras, he was forced to reconcile with his past when he found out his father was taken as a political prisoner, and eventually apologized for running away and completely disregarding his family. Malotz still doesn’t care for politics and makes a point to live off only what money is necessary, but the wounds associated with worrying his family were finally allowed to heal over.
