Thayan Plotting
#4
Event Theme: There are currently two major factions among the Red Wizards. The Imperialists are devoted to an expansionistic and imperialistic policy of swallowing neighbor states and eventually the entire Realms. They have attempted this many times, but they are invariably stopped. Many of the Imperialists blame their lack of success on the inactivity of the most potent Wizards of the realm, who happen to be the other major faction and are known as the Researchers.
These worthies believe the true vocation of the magic-user is research and careful application of the research to acquire new and more potent wizardries. While a Researcher might go adventuring or use his powers to help his own fortunes, as a group they are notoriously uninterested in assisting the land of Thay in conquest. Researchers are essentially selfish. If the enterprise does not benefit them directly, they have no interest in it.
The main leader of the Researchers, as much as they have leaders, is Sabass of Thay. This powerful Red Wizard is seeking knowledge of a powerful artifact that could potentially unite the disparate factions of Thay and, in turn, lead to the establishment of a Thayan empire - not just a nation of petty self-centered wizards.

Recommended PCs: Those with an interest in discovering forgotten or hidden lore and artifacts, or those with the desire to see Thay united under a strong central leader.

Event Starting Location: Interested party members should make their way to the Last Chance Tavern in the Keep of Sorrows.

Start Time: October 26 at 8:00 PM Central
