The Damascus Spears

Before you lies the beginning of a breaking point, a miracle to the masses, and an uncovering branching to forces so deep they shape the very world around it. The party has one the battle, but are certainly becoming more aware of the challenges outside the walls of civilization.

The ambush on the Lion of Naxos' ship is at hand! While half of their forces move inland to go for the Hydra lair the Agripas rams head on with a boat load of Mercenaries out for blood and ready to board. 

Breaking off from the group competitions, we see the individual games our party takes part in while one sees the corruption and a conspiracy transpire behind the scenes. An obstacle filled Archery course, a Haiku battle, and a Trial of Pain and Endurance await our party.

Fresh after encountering Demeter at the lair of the Hydra, the party comes to term with their chaotic disorganization when put under pressure. Thaumaturgy + Stealth don't mix well most the time, and neither does our duel wielding barbarian when they can't reach their target. The developments from here give us the perfect look at who our party members are and how they try to form a better battle plan for their next adventure.

The Second round of the tournament is at hand with the party going in with a few heads up gained from their friends betting on their capabilities. A race to kill the mobs without falling off a crumbling set of platforms into a lake of lava. They go in knowing that this game is the first lethal one that poses a threat to them. The bonds of the party are thrown back into the arena as they rapidly learn to work with each other after nearly tearing one another apart in the previous game.

The Nyxweave Hydra has returned to its lair and is on the prowl for thieving prey. The Damascus Spears must find an escape entrance out and away from this very powerful creature or risk the lives of their company. Unfortunately, they are far from the most coordinated when things go awry.

The start of the tournament is at hand and apparent with the choices of champions that win these events. Split against one another and joined by a curiously problematic team member, they take on what Knossos has in store.

At the doors of the Hydra's Lair the Damascus Spears enact a plan to find the artifacts while the Hydra is away. Sound and Time run against them as they race to retrieve the artifacts.

Testing the fates is an odd gamble. You either appear where you need to be, or you feel the consequences in motion that you had the power to affect. New blood and old flames join the crew, and the Aegean teases its control over the seafaring adventurers. An island of Doom, an Island of Dreams, and a simple quest that is not what it seems.

Finding themselves in a new opportunity, the party follows a secret taken to the grave. Bent on uncovering the riddled cypher, they sail to an island hidden away from mortal eyes. Danger is around every bend, but together, they can unify and repel all. Preceding their adventure, they are forced to hold faith in pirates to keep their word.
