Our story. Are you ready?” “A long time ago, an arcane cataclysm known as The Breaking shook the earth to such a degree that it shattered. Pieces of land were propelled into the sky and were made unaffiliated with the chaos that began to ensue below. Magic ceased to pervade. Strange mutations and ecosystems reeved the world into something entirely new. The remnants of this old world, one home to magnificent constructs of building and engineering, became plagued by curses, broken ‘survivors’, and powerful daemons that are drawn to these seats of ancient power.” “Now the night is dark and full with terrors. In the absence of light, a misty twilight covers the land and in it lurks monstrosities. After The Breaking, from the cracks of the earth, came a species of unknown name. We call them daemons, or They. Monstrous fiends with only one drive – to consume flesh. They, and many other creatures, made it incredibly difficult for humanity to rebuild itself up for thousands of years. Long in the afterbirth, however, humanity began to gain in numbers and make safe havens among the wild but flourishing plant life across regions. People joined together to create clans and unities to not just survive – but thrive. Below the skylands, the world has become littered with bastions and cities that serve as testaments between vast swaths of harsh and mysterious twilight wilds. Up above are the skylands and there skywalkers live in legendary cities and have been glimpsed to sail on the air. Their land is said to be fertile and civilized. Far removed from grounders. Stories of tall lush and orderly cities and glimpses of riders on sharpwings high above is all that many below are able to see and know of them.” “Down here, community is central to life. If one is alone – they will most certainly be at a disadvantage. Together humanity has grown and has formed many clans across regions. Here in the north, Oratrova is a region known for its resilience – being in a colder climate made up of snowy mountains, green lush valleys of wildflowers, forests, and the odd hot spring. Villages are protected from the biting ocean winds by the nearby Mother’s Mountains and heated by the Companions hot springs - fueled by an underground caldera. We, the Trova people, have made a place for ourselves high up in this city of Hearthome. Scaffold, sturdy walls, and watchful warriors keep us safe. We have rejected invaders and daemons alike throughout our long history. To this day we Oratrovans have a reputation of iron wills, as a people of ferocious strength and hearty constitution who will sacrifice anything for survival. We are a people who deserve our chosen symbol of a saber tooth tiger bear.” “When you are older, you will each have a job to preform to keep Hearthome safe and our fellow Trova’s happy. Each of you is important, essential to life. You are the stand against the dark. My little beams in the twilight.” Weekly LIVE Schedule: -SUNDAY Curse of Strahd LIVE! | 7-10 p.m. ET -MONDAY Tomb of Annihilation LIVE! | 8-11 p.m. ET -TUESDAY Tabletop Legends LIVE! | 7pm-10pm ET -WEDNESDAY Brave/Wish LIVE! | 9-12 a.m. ET -THURSDAY Delve & Dash LIVE! | 7-8:10 p.m. ET Mystichour w/ Kristy Mysticwater!
