The most recent major event in the world was nearly a century ago when the last Orcish Warband tore through Northwestern Kel and ravaged the city of Destrum and many smaller towns. This Warband, like ones before it, was a coalition of tribes formed together through combat to raid Elven and Human lands. Warbands normally come through once every hundred years, though this past one was particular devastating due to the presence of the Gray-Talkers. These are powerful green-skinned shamans that dwell in dark magic. The city of Destrum was never recovered by Kel due to a large presence of dark, chaotic magic. King Godefrey, ruler of Kel, has recently given word they plan on recapturing the city in the coming years. This has little to dwell the stirring countryside that has had to deal with the undead and higher rates of bandits. Some of the braver, or more foolish, have openly started to denounce the king.
In present day news, there are rumors of another Warband forming to further push into Kel. The military has been on guard, and a small detachment of soldiers has been sent out from the town of Crownfield. Many in the village believe it was due to an Orcish scouting party.
They've been gone for nearly a week and the locals are beginning to worry, though the noble family Grelmon that is in charge of the area has stated the town should not worry and preparations for the yearly Harvest of Cornaith should continue as normal.

Crownfield and the Surrounding Area
The town of Crownfield is a pretty rural town in the district of House Grelmon, a noble family that prides itself in its horses and livestock. The finest horses in the Kellian military likely come from a Grelmon ranch and the tastiest steaks are from Grelmon cows! Many traders and adventures pass through here when dealing with Western Kel or on the way to the Elineshire forest. When traveling to and from the city, you're likely to pass by farms and ranches.
Crownfield itself is actually the largest of the cities in the Grelmon territory, and the town itself houses the Grelmon family home. A large church belonging to the Church of the Sun has recently been constructed here, much to the dismay of many of the farmers who still follow the Religion of the First Beings. The town has plenty of shops; including a smithy, brewery, fletcher, jeweler and butcher.
Two taverns are located here; the Drowsy Lamb Inn and the Tipsy Bull Tavern.
The Drowsy Lamb tends to be the one where travelers go to rest for their journey, and the Tipsy Bull tends to be the place where the locals enjoy a drank before a fight breaks out. Both places tend to be full around the time of the Harvest Festival.
While the locals tend to be relatively kind humans, some of the farmers have a distrust/dislike of Orcs and Goblins but they are still allowed in the city as long as they don't start trouble. Most people are distrustful of the Ratoakens that live in a small-slum like area on the western portion of the city close to the river. Elves and Dwarves are common enough here.

Character Building Tips and Questions
- The more magic your character has, the less skilled they are in each 'school of magic.
- There are written schools of magic (yet?) If requested I may write one up, but ATM feel free to be creative!
- Try to not make your character super powerful. There is always room for growth!
- If you're unsure if a particular race, backstory, magic or anything else would fit here you can always ask me. I answer DM's as fast as possible, and Discord messages even quicker!
