Murder in Arabel: Meet Gormon
🕑 Added 2025-05-16 22:11:03 +0000 UTCYou’re a master of sleight-of-hand, conning the wealthy while charming them with your flute. Arabel’s shadowy streets are home, and while true friends are few, your connections run deep.
Despite your tricks, you care for the downtrodden. As a teen, you befriended Yurkash, a bullied outcast—until your friend vanished without a word.
Now, you rent a room from Gertrudt Falken, a kind old widow who’s become like family. You share meals, stories, and the warmth of companionship.
But trouble brews. Since her husband’s death, Gertrudt has led the Stallholders' Guild. In four days, she must turn over the guild’s savings to its new chair—but corrupt city guards have extorted every last coin from her.
If word gets out she’s empty-handed, she’ll be ruined—or worse.
You’ve scammed nobles and slipped past guards before. But this time, the stakes are personal. You’ve got four days to set things right.

Ortega-Namir. Gifted fiery powers by an efreeti, you arrive in Arabel to avenge your murdered cousins—only to uncover a chilling conspiracy and secrets that could burn far deeper than grief.
Dawa. You found hope in Arabel—then lost everything. Now, with your brother and friend dead, only vengeance remains. The real killers are still out there—and you'll stop at nothing to find them.
Yurkash. Once exiled for your strange looks, you return to Arabel to stop a rampaging werewolf. But the city still hates your kind—and your past won't stay buried for long.
Moonlight. Undead stalk Arabel’s streets. As a holy knight sworn to purge their kind, you suspect a necromancer hides in plain sight. You’ve lost family to darkness before—you won’t let it happen again.
Swaying Dandelion. Trained by monk-mages to recover lost relics, you now seek forbidden artifacts stolen by a warlock. With a holy knight at your side, your pilgrimage could end in glory—or tragedy.
