About the adventure
Years ago, the world changed. The Shardstorm, a magical calamity with causes yet unknown, brought about a new era of heroes and adventurers. Shards of magical obsidian litter the landscape. Those that become active become portals to other realms, worlds, or even different realities entirely. The city of Kalumnoir, a jewel of prosperity, stands tall amidst this chaos. The city of Kalumnoir has many factions competing for their own personal agenda. Many serve out of a sense of duty or benevolence. Some exploit the needy for unscrupulous gain. Others still seek to displace the crown itself. The Silver Guard has much simpler goals. Fame and glory, sure. But above all else, coin. The hard , ordinary metal that runs the world. "We are the silver guard. We serve ourselves and whoever contracts our services. We do not bow to the whims of the crown. We do not seek the glorification of duty or altruism. The baser instincts of thievery and extortion are beneath us. We will earn our coin, glory, and fame. The fruits of our labor will be plain and we will stand proudly having earned the luxuries grand adventures stand to offer." -Ceracin Snowstep, Merchant Lord and Leader of the Silver Guard.

About me
Hello, I'm look forward to the chance to play together! For over a decade, Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, and Shadowrun have been big parts of my life. I have played and GM'ed in both home groups and at conventions, and its super exciting to see the world of tabletop RPG's move to be more accessible online. If you are looking for a timeframe that you don't see listed or want a specific game run, feel free to reach out and we can work together to see if we can make it possible.
