Characters
Two parties. Some of the same people around the table, none of the same characters — the roster you want depends on which game is being played.
Courts of the Shadow Fey — Party
Four adventurers at level 8, in a court where rank is currency and the season is turning against them.
The Adventure Begins — Party
Four adventurers at level 7, two Shardseas behind them, last seen bleeding in the lower streets of a city in the Sea of Governance.
