Red Knight Expeditions and Training

Unread post by Mork »

By call of Ignatius Lyonhelm, sworn Paladin of the Red Knight

To all adventurers, denizens of the Sword Coast:
I call upon all disciplined minds of good hearts to arms! Friendly Arms Inn for training! It is time to forge your body and spirit in fire of battle and companionship.

I summon all who wish to assemble beneath the Red Banner for training and exercise.

Drills will not be just simple contest of arms, but the study of movement, formation and tactics.
Victory is born not from strength alone, but from foresight shared among the allies.

Approach the banner, state your name and motivation and should your intentions be pure receive training.

Seems like this time expedition was quite successful with many more people joining - some for training and some just to observe and listen.

Image

At first group marched on from Friendly Arm in direction of Durlags Tower. On the way topics covered basic battle commands about movement and shield-wall formation.

- Advance! Shields front, steel behind!

Image

- The ants go marching three by three,
hurrah, hurrah, hurrah, HURRAH
We're off to face our destiny, hurrah, hurrah


After practicing multiple battle scenarios group reached depths of Durlag tower were some tackled elemental challenges while others learned about more advanced Lanceboard Formation - a line of soldiers that allows for rotation of the front line for prolonged fighting.

Image

As it was first time group experienced fair bit of chaos but with practice comes perfection!

- Fall back, no panic! Withdraw in order!

Group of people wearing markings of Red Knight, Helm and Valkur descended into depths of Beregost Mines bearing gift of freedom to captured would-to-be sacrifices to Baphomet cult. Man named "Carl" is rescued from the cage and escorted back to Beregost shaken with the experience but alive and well.

There's rumors that man leading the group took upon himself to gather like-minded people in defense of the Sword Coast. Something about Falcon's Wing? Perhaps one could ask around to learn more...

// Thank you DM Cowboy !
