BANNERLESS- THE BLANK ORDER

- Parts 3
When orcs ravage the countryside or when a dragon sets towns ablaze, or when a mad mage tyrant brings kingdoms under his heel, few forces can be relied on to fight alongside local military and heroes. That is unless of course, a nearby order of the Realmswatch fly their banners in your region. This band of intrepid adventurers has sworn to risk life and limb for the good of all peoples of Arlann, albeit with a certain incentive of coin. Amongst their ranks though, one group sticks out like a sore thumb, a new addition that seems to like bending the rules. Are they more trouble than they're worth? What tales does this order hide behind its unassuming, plain and featureless ash flag?

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: Adventures of the Creeping Bam (BOOK 2: One Cold Trail)
After their fateful misadventure in the mountainous Norther Reaches of RUNDAO, a dark new threat to all of RUNDAO has been revealed to the mercenary band of THE CREEPING BAM and their newest member, half-orc bandit SHAYLINE SWIFT-KILL.

Escape from Whitestone Hold
When tensions flare into an-all out rebellion, Sapphira's hometown is turned into a city-wide warzone. The Magistrate are ruthless in restoring order within the blood-soaked walls, catching civilians in the crossfire. Hope is scarce. What more is there to do but flee with what survivors remain? This is a spinoff backstory for a D&D campaign based in the world from "Paladins: Champions of the Realm." Plenty of intellectual rights shenanigans here that I'm not smart enough to address, but it's all in fun. When writing I kept the theme from D&D world of "letting the characters choose wrong/useless paths to explore" as an unnecessary rule imposed on myself, which took more effort than I expected due to sidetracks, but I still enjoy the story that resulted. I wrote this rough draft with the *intention* to go back and polish it someday... Buuuut eh, I probably never will. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Complete
A Court of Ash and Necromancy
Two years have passed since Mikael Anik and Estelle Marzena survived the Illyrian Blood Rite and were mated. They've finally settled into their new life together, back in the Dawn Court. However, the peace they've known thus far is almost at an end.

It is time for the mystery to be unraveled, but what will it cost to do so? There is more at stake now than either of them could have imagined. Are they facing an isolated threat, or is it possible that some ancient foe lurks within Prythian's borders, waiting for her chance to strike?

The Misfits and the Devourer
In a world teetering on the edge of ruin, a Tiefling who has escaped the shadows of the Underdark seeks redemption-and the chance to prove himself worthy of the title "hero." But in a land where prejudice runs deep and darkness stirs, the path to heroism is far from simple. Joined by a band of unlikely companions-a hulking Minotaur with more strength than sense, a hapless human wizard, a druid plagued by a phobia of animals, and a Goliath bard who prefers ballads to brawls-he is thrust into a perilous quest. Their mission? Recover an ancient staff forged by the gods before a sinister secret society can unleash a primordial force known only as the Devourer, a being older than existence itself. Their journey will take them through treacherous ruins, oppressive towns under imperial control, and cosmic battlegrounds where reality bends. Along the way, they'll face fierce battles, puzzling challenges, and eccentric foes, from flamboyant pirate captains to pompous noble adventurers. As the stakes rise and bonds are forged, this ragtag group of misfits may be the world's last hope-if they can survive long enough to become the heroes they were never meant to be.Complete
