It is the year 4717 AR. Watcher-Lord Ulthun II of Lastwall has departed Vigil with a sizable army and marched upon Fangwood Forest intent on removing the Orc threat located there once and for all. Vigil has been left in the hands of the Precentors Martial and a skeleton crew of soldiers, but in the weeks since his departure a wave of crime has taken over the city and their reduced resources are unable to handle it. The Precentors Martial have tasked Venture-Captain Evni Zongnoss and Second Sword Knight Aylunna Varvatos with handling the situation.

Elandra Tilernos (female human) – Precentor Martial of the Cavalry. Elandra Tilernos is the favored daughter of the powerful Tilernos family, a Knight of Ozem, and highly regarded. Her style couples a deep affinity for the animals with a razor-honed understanding of cavalry tactics, qualities she seeks to teach her soldiers both by training and by example. She works all cavalry units hard, drilling them constantly and setting them tasks to test their mettle.
Axl Fordham (male human – Kellid) – Precentor Martial of Infantry. Axl Fordham rode into Lastwall fifteen years ago from places unknown. He doesn’t talk much about his past, but fought his way up in the Crusade one downed orc after the next. He is a man accustomed to war. An unparalleled soldier, his leadership style is subdued and humble, which makes him something of a hit with his men.

Keyron Saiville (male human) – Precentor Martial of Scouting. Keyron Saiville’s emphasis has always been on circumspect, cautious reconnaissance. He takes quality of information very seriously, and safety of his agents almost as seriously. In a land where the rule of law is near absolute, Saiville provides a little shade for the less orthodox means by which the forces of good sometimes work.
Veena Heliu (female human) – Precentor Martial of Magic. Veena Heliu is an ostentatious nonconformist, and the darling of many in the crusade for her aggressiveness in war and in her personal affairs. More than one fist fight has erupted when Veena’s lovestruck partisans have referred to her as “Our Lady,” a term traditionalists reserve for Iomedae herself. Met briefly during the Battle of Vigil on Watcher’s Tor when she thanked the party for defeating the Skum leader.
