Ardent Silathin \u2013 Knight of the Waxing Moon<\/h2>\n

Ardent is a veteran of dozens of skirmishes against the Irinaxi Drow. In doing so, he has earned much favour with the Temple of Glanbeli, and admiration from his peers and the commonfolk among the Glanbelite Drow. His experience has resulted in him being ordained as a general in the war against Irinax, now that it swells to a conflict beyond the skirmishes in the tunnels and villages of the Underground.<\/p>\n

Ardent\u2019s life has always been one entwined with the Irinaxi Drow. As a boy, his siblings were taken from his village as tribute for the dark divine, and his parents fled soon after, fearing that they might return to take their last remaining child. Though he could hardly remember the day his siblings were taken, the scar it left on his family never healed. Through childhood he watched his parents crumble beneath the weight of their grief. They had more children to replace those they lost, yet his younger siblings never received the same affection as his deceased elder ones. When his parents eventually took their own lives, Ardent was left to fend for himself, and become the caretaker of his two sisters and single brother.<\/p>\n

The only way he could earn security for them was joining the military of Hirika, the city of the Glanbelite Drow. The Temple, in exchange for his pledged loyalty, provided housing and security to his youngest siblings. Ardent\u2019s devotion was driven solely by his resolve to his family, both living and dead. In combat this manifested with an unwavering and zealous fighting spirit, fighting on even through injury and on the verge of death. It was this fervent heart that saw him knighted by Kadna Glydrin, after the battle that claimed his eye.<\/p>\n

Now Ardent Silathin is a loyalist to Kadna and the existing Glanbelite Temple, readying himself against the emergent separatist threat of the New Moon. Whilst others may see the New Moon as misguided followers, Ardent sees them for what he believes they truly are: deadly cultists veiling their malicious intent under Glanbeli\u2019s light. He will have no mercy on them when the time comes to draw blades against them, and will treat them as though they were the very cultists of Irinax that tore his family apart. For all he believes, they very well might be.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The set<\/span><\/p>\n

The Drow of Lo Fuin have long been a secluded people, owing to the deadly nature of their homeland. In recent years, the Glanbelite Moon Drow have open limited contact with outsiders in the expeditionary outpost of Zander\u2019s Peril, but that has suddenly ceased. A schism is brewing within the ranks of the Moon Drow, and they suspect outside influence to be the cause, be it the Overworlders, or their Irinaxi Spider kin. Either way, they are now at each other\u2019s throats, and peace is carefully balanced on a knife\u2019s edge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The campaign<\/span><\/p>\n

In Schism of the Drow the party undertakes a quest that no other adventurers at Zander\u2019s Peril dare: to escort a conjurer through the deathly swamps of Lo Fuin to the Glanbelite Drow city of Hirika. Whilst the journey itself is seen as nigh-suicidal with the friendly Drow no longer tending the route, finding entry to the city may be almost as difficult. If the party does manage to make it inside, they will find that tensions within the ranks of the Glanbelite Drow are bubbling, and the fabric of their once-peaceful society is beginning to unravel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
