Previously in Wehnimer's Landing

What is it?

Here will be an archive of all of the official recap posts about current events on a monthly basis in Wehnimer's Landing.

March 2016

A massive fleet of krolvin, led by Czag Dubra Kragnack launched an attack on Wehnimer’s Landing. In a powerful display of unity and power not displayed so beautifully in recent history, the heroes and allies of Wehnimer’s Landing defended the town and after hours of heated battle, pushed the krolvin back out to sea. There were defenses setup all over town and in the outlying areas and Darkstone Bay blackened with the blood of krolvin. However, the krolvin ranks were augmented by demons and undead, lending further credence to the fact that Kragnack must be working with a necromancer, or has learned some darker abilities himself. A second krolvin attack proved just as challenging, but the adventurers kept damage to a minimum, but were unable to stop some floating demonic spire from burrowing into the sands below the Coastal Cliffs. Many have speculated what could be a consequence of the spire burrowing close to town, but nothing else has come of it yet.

After a string of defeats, the krolvin fleet pulled back, but the waters beyond the bay are still littered with their scout ships and some war vessels, indicating a future invasion may still be possible.

A few days after some preserved bodies were discovered to have been smuggled into town by the Brotherhood of Rooks, the corpses went missing and many suspected it was an inside job that allowed the bodies, and the chest they were in, to go missing. The dwarf captain who had escaped, was found dead in the swamps of Upper Trollfang, a loresong indicating he had been captured, tortured and killed for his failure.

Wehnimer’s Landing kicked off another mayoral election cycle! On the ballot was the current Mayor, Puptilian, and the two challengers were Cruxophim and Kylinarr! To this date, voting is still underway with results expected within days.

A man named Granthem washed up on shore with limited memories many months ago. He has since taken on a handful of jobs in Wehnimer’s Landing, trying to find his place. Most recently he has found temporary housing in House Phoenix and been training with the Blacksmith Iron Jack, while trying to pick up some melee skills. One night, Granthem worked up the courage to ask for a date from a local bar wench at Helga’s named Anabeth, who he had been eyeing for weeks, and only spoken to briefly. Later, a murder mystery began to unravel, as a fight was said to have happened in the alley behind Helga’s, but only blood stains were found by local adventurers. Granthem was soon discovered nearby, and he confessed to killing a drunk town guard.

Later, the body of the guard was found, and through a bardic loresong it was revealed that two town guards attacked Anabeth and Granthem, almost incapacitating Granthem and one intended to harm and abuse Anabeth, who in turn defended herself and killed one of the guards. Granthem, out of blind devotion, confessed to the murder to allow Anabeth to escape because she claimed she feared who the guards worked for. It was later discovered that the guards were corrupt and worked for the Brotherhood of Rooks, who had some members targeting Anabeth because of her ties to a smuggling group out of River’s Rest called the Bayrunners. When the Bayrunners refused to work with the Rooks, Anabeth had got caught in the middle.

Meanwhile, Granthem was being held in the town jail until more could be discovered, but when the heroes went back to check on him, the guard on duty said he hadn’t ever been there, which screamed of an obvious cover up. Days later, Granthem was discovered in some ruins near steel golems and the Glatoph, with three town guards who appeared to have been turned inside out by magic, their eyes and flesh having melted. Granthem was taken to town and tended too, but he did not have any recollection of how the guards died. Having no evidence to hold him, Marshal Thrayzar eventually released Granthem, who as of now remains at House Phoenix.

Some local Ronanites and members of the Order of the Night’s Blade conducted a semi-private commune to Koar at the shrine in the Hendoran Outpost, seeking to gain knowledge into the workings of Prelate Chaston and his holy crusade. Attending the ceremony, was a Luukosian.

Two nights of mayoral debates kicked off! Fun was had by all!

Days after the commune in the Hendoran Outpost, word reached Wehnimer’s Landing that a group of Blameless crusaders had struck out from Talador and raided the location of a known Luukosian cult near Barrett’s Gorge and the Demonwall, in the County of Trauntor. It was said that evidence was discovered that connected the Luukosians to members of the Order of the Night’s Blade, who had some Ronanites operating in that area. Both groups were attacked by the Blameless, and a leader, by the name of Redding, among the Night’s Order was captured by Prelate Chaston.

A trial was held in Barrett’s Gorge in regards to Redding’s betrayal of his Ronan order and the God-King Koar, and many adventurers in Wehnimer’s Landing were given a way to remotely view the proceedings by Lady Casiphia. During the trial, Redding confessed to his crimes and sins of working with the Luukosians, and even named a handful of adventurers in Wehnimer’s Landing that were corrupted working with him. Two Hendoran soldiers who were dispatched by Sir Thadston were witness during the trial, and one even tried to attack Prelate Chaston but a mob of imperial citizens stopped him, and killed him. The second soldier was executed as a conspirator by Disean, the son of Thadston, at the command of Prelate Chaston. After his confession, Lord Redding was tied to a wooden post and lit on fire, presumably having burned alive.
