Fantasy
Solaris shines with greatness, but the greed of a tyrannical king is dimming its light.
Author's Note: The story starts with your past shaping your present. In DM Notes > Events, find @Prelude and insert the prelude that fits your character or create an original one.
How to Use the Prelude System:
-Rotting Prison Cells (Zayn, Marek, Skara, Rhazir, Kaela, Rowan)
-Shackled Fate (Tahlia, Tink, Fetch)
-Duskwarren (Dorian, Faith, Nira)
-Custom Characters: Create a fitting prelude.
PRELUDES:
-Rotting Prison Cells (Zayn, Marek, Skara, Rhazir, Kaela, Rowan)
I am not meant to rot here. None of us are. The chains may hold my wrists, but they do not break my resolve. Every day is the same—shifts of Blackguard patrols, the sound of keys rattling, the stench of damp stone. They take one of us at a time. Interrogation. Torture. Forced labor in Dreadspire Keep. They think they can wear us down, that we will surrender to our fate. But they are wrong.
-Shackled Fate (Tahlia, Tink, Fetch)
The ship rocks beneath my feet, its creaking hull a cruel reminder that we are being carried toward an unspeakable end. We were taken, marked as criminals for crimes we never committed. A lie was all it took. Alistair’s rituals spare no one. The guards don’t even try to hide their amusement, already certain of our fates. But they underestimate us. Time is slipping away, but I refuse to let it run out before I fight back.
-Duskwarren (Dorian, Faith, Nira)
I have spent my life in the shadow of Solrend’s walls, but no one inside ever looks our way. Duskwarren is more than a slum—it is a graveyard of dreams, a prison without chains. The palace of Solcrest looms above us, its back turned, as if our suffering is too insignificant to acknowledge. But I see the truth. I hear the murmurs in the alleys, the quiet rage in weary voices. The city will never lift us up. We have to rise ourselves.
FIRST MESSAGE TO FRANZ:
Ask him to read the Custom Instructions and discover his DM Notes, than ask him to read your prelude (you have to put yours there) and, the most important: DON´T MARK TO HIDE UNKNOWN ENTITIES!!!

appearance
A male tiefling wizard. Gaunt and aged with deep blue skin, spiraling horns frosted with ice, and glowing yellow eyes. He wears tattered yet arcane robes embroidered with symbols of forgotten dynasties, and carries a staff made from a jagged shard of enchanted ice.
personality
Maelrik is a figure of quiet intensity, speaking in riddles and half-truths. He is neither an ally nor an enemy to the crown but seems to know more about Solaris' hidden past than he lets on. Though reclusive, he harbors a deep curiosity about those who seek him, often testing their resolve with enigmatic challenges.
backstory
Once a trusted royal mage of the nameless king, Maelrik mysteriously vanished shortly before King Alistair's rise to power. Whispers suggest he may have played a role in the strange enchantment that erased the memory of the former king’s name—or perhaps he resists it, protecting fragments of the truth from Alistair's grasp. Now exiled to the frozen mountain, he offers cryptic wisdom to those who brave the cold to find him, though his motivations remain shrouded in mystery. He is one of the few that knows the true: Alfred Solari, the true heir, still lives and is hidden somewhere around Solrend, away from blackguards and Alistair. He also is the most capable arcanist of Solaris.
