Season 1: Players are captured by Thri-ken. They escape, beat the crap out of them, and then learn that their queen was being mind controlled (after Rhea burns her to a crisp). Figure out it is a doppleganger working for the not-Mayor of Redstone. Rush to town and Xelril and Drift track down and dispatch the doppleganger while the othe two sleep.

Learn that a Kahvlock, a wizard, is after the orb of fire -- one of a collection of magical artifacts of the old gods. The PCs find the orb, but Kahvlock manages to steal it from them, prying it from the little gnome's hands.

Through much traveling and conferences with wise folks, they come to understand that Kahvlock's plan is to burn the world down. The PCs don't like that idea and set out to stop him. First is to gather the other magical artifacts - which they do. Then to rally the races of Stretoris to form an army to fight Khavlock - which they do. And then to march on Kahvlock's fortress and kill him, which they do.

Along the way, the elven town is burnt mostly to the ground by Khavlock's dragon and Xelril's mother dies. Lunranil is used a pawn by the gods which greatly angers him. On the cursed islands, Lunranil is infected with madness. Tired of being a playing of the gods personally and seeing the world in general treated that way, Lunranil decides he wants to orb for himself so that HE can burn it all down. Khavlock is defeated, but Lunranil escapes with the orb at the end (the other PCs hesitating when Snowdrift urges them to cut-down the mad Lunranil).

Lunranil had a dire goat, Gorgon, Eater of Worlds. He was awesome.

Rhea messes with an evil magical necklace in the land of the drow. She's maybe up to no good as well?

Snowdrift talks to cats a lot. He's on a quest of some sort, but it's not clear what that is.
