Well, I haven’t had much time to work on it (or anything, really)… work has been superchaoticness, and I’ve been working on finalizing Louisa’s Portfolio Site.  But, despite all that, I spent a little bit of time today getting my Background and Synopsis written up for the Adventure.  Now, this is a first, rough draft… I’m having trouble figuring out the exact formula to use for the Background and the Synopsis… I’m more anxious to get to the meat of the adventure, so I don’t really know how to write it out.  I have a ton more than this written up, I just haven’t reached a point where I would like to share it, just yet.  Anyway, here’s the Background and the Synopsis to show where I’m planning to go with it.  As always, comments, suggestions and support are always appreciated.

Background

The town of Heartwood is a quiet, peaceful community, tucked between the Serpent River, the Blue River, and the Thunderhill Mountains.  Although the town is in an ideal spot for trade – sitting at the hub of two trade routes in conjunction with the two rivers – it is relatively far enough away from the major cities and nations that it is able to avoid many of violent wars and disputes over the years.  The people of Heartwood have been very lucky to live in such peace.  However, their peace may be short-lived.  Whispered rumors have been spreading around town, over the last few months, regarding sinister goings on in the abandoned Thundercrown Castle – a fortified stronghold constructed near the top of the Thunderhill Mountains, overlooking the town and the well-traveled mountain pass since time forgotten.  During the reassuring light of day, the townsfolk scoff at such tales, once the sun goes down, the people tend to stay behind locked doors.

(Note: If you’re intending to play in my PbP Campaign, I wouldn’t read the rest… there’s still 3 slots open!)
