Company Lore
Posted: Sun Aug 02, 2020 2:22 pm
This thread is for the Company's lore, history, backstories and myth. Players here are encouraged to write the history of their characters particularly in relation to 'The Troll Company'.
At intervals players are expected to write a summary of the adventure from their characters point of view (first or third person).
In this way, we can collectively create a setting using The Troll Company as a base. the Scenario expanding from our humble group of trolls.
So let me begin,,,
Some words and inscriptions remain of the origins of the Troll Company, now lost to circumstance and hard luck. For now, the Company is but a shadow of its former glory.
The books mention a group of adventurers using the underside of a ruined bridge, and its tunnels, to bottleneck an entire province into submission. Tunneling deeper, these 'trolls' as the surrounding lords called them angrily, fashioned an entire underground town, pushing deeper and deeper.
But that is legend.
Now this once powerful mercenary fold is a Company in name only. Given that name by a sarcastic tradesman to a team he hired to explore the Observatory of the Great One. This mission in hopes of opening trade routes and caravans into that deserted region.
