From the very beginning of Campaign 4, recently appointed game master the talented storyteller has kept fans guessing with rich lore, a wide array of personalities, and a gripping narrative including angels, fiends, and sinister influences increasing in power within the city.
Heads-up: Revealing details for Episode 3 of Campaign 4 follow below.
The Soldiers Table Introduced
Episode 3 ended with a huge suspense moment and introduced the initial group of adventurers who will separate from the primary party to embark on their independent quest, distinct from the remaining groups.
The Soldiers table consists of the determined fighter (portrayed by Travis), Thimble (Laura), the fierce warrior (Whitney Moore), Wicander (Sam), and Kattigan (Robbie).
The Reason for Division
Given 13 cast members, it was evident from the start that having everyone at one table would be impossible.
This explains, the initial installments of Campaign 4 serve as an Prelude, connecting the characters’ stories before dividing into three separate parties: Fighters, Planners, and Seekers.
Characteristics of the Soldiers Table
According to the Dungeon Master, the warrior group is for players who enjoy a traditionally charged battle-oriented narrative style where non-violent answers are rare.
At first glance, characters like the hesitant healer the cleric might appear out of place, but the events of the latest installment make it clear why these specific adventurers are ideally matched for the combat party.
Why They Must Go
First, the team knows exactly where to go next after a intense first encounter with The Crow Keepers.
A former ally of the deceased character—whose death started the story’s plot—used the foes for his selfish purposes, entering the hidden lair, assaulting Thimble, and taking all the powerful objects to auction.
The traitor then paid off his debts and fled to a Halovar stronghouse in the northern region, beyond the city, with Cyd hot on his heels.
Individual Reasons
Additionally, each adventurer has a personal reason to leave the city the urban setting:
- Thimble, as the companion and closest confidant, seeks vengeance.
- Kattigan has experience in Timmony and advises that it is a nasty location.
- The strong character and The healer, having resisted his relatives’ demands to eliminate the fighter and instead freed him, have no safe haven.
- However, their position as important members in the influential clan could enable the party reach areas they normally couldn’t.
- Moreover, The fighter vowed a unbreakable promise to The savior for his rescue and will now accompany him anywhere.
Fugitives
In addition, all of them are wanted by the rulers that rule Dol-Makjar for a multiple motives, making staying in the city dangerous:
- The rogue and The character are notorious outlaws.
- The warrior and The cleric turned against the influential house and the legion of demons they are allied with.
- Teor is targeted for elimination by the family.
This means them few options but to journey toward Timmony in search of the traitor.
