Since the launch of the fourth campaign, recently appointed game master Brennan Mulligan has kept viewers on edge with deep backstory, a wide array of personalities, and a exciting storyline featuring angels, demons, and dark forces expanding in strength within the city.
Warning: Revealing details for Episode 3 of Campaign 4 lie ahead.
The Soldiers Table Introduced
The third episode concluded with a huge suspense moment and revealed the first table of heroes who will branch out from the primary party to begin their own adventure, apart from the additional parties.
The combat-focused team includes Teor (portrayed by Travis), the nimble rogue (Laura Bailey), the fierce warrior (the cast member), Wicander (Sam), and Kattigan (the actor).
Why Split the Party?
With a large ensemble, it was clear from the start that maintaining everyone at the same party would be impossible.
Hence, the opening chapters of this story serve as an Introduction, intertwining the characters’ stories before branching into three separate parties: Warriors, Schemers, and Questers.
What Defines the Soldiers Table
Per Brennan Lee Mulligan, the combat-focused party is for players who enjoy a classically intense fight-heavy story mode where non-violent answers are scarce.
At first glance, characters like the reluctant priest Wicander might appear out of place, but the actions of the third episode demonstrate why these particular heroes are perfectly fit for the Soldiers table.
Why They Must Go
To begin with, the party knows exactly where to go next after a intense initial meeting with the enemy group.
A former ally of Thjazi—whose passing initiated the narrative’s action—used The Crow Keepers for his selfish purposes, invading the hidden lair, assaulting the character, and stealing all the powerful objects to sell off.
The antagonist then cleared his debts and fled to a fortified location in the northern region, north of the city, with Teor’s brother pursuing him.
Character Drivers
Moreover, each member has a individual motive to depart the metropolitan area:
- The agile hero, as Thjazi’s partner and best friend, desires revenge.
- The knowledgeable figure is familiar with Timmony and warns that it is a hostile place.
- Tyranny and The healer, having defied his house’s orders to eliminate the fighter and instead freed him, have no safe haven.
- Yet, their reputation as key figures in the powerful family could help the team access locations they typically wouldn’t be able to.
- Additionally, The fighter vowed a eternal obligation to The cleric for his deliverance and will now go with him everywhere.
Wanted and Hunted
In addition, all of them are hunted by the rulers that control the setting for a multiple motives, making staying in the city too risky:
- The rogue and Kattigan are recognized lawbreakers.
- The warrior and Wicander betrayed House Halovar and the horde of evil beings they are partnered with.
- The target is wanted dead by the family.
This leaves them little choice but to journey toward the remote area in pursuit of the traitor.
What’s Next?
According to the recent installment’s follow-up content, we find out that the warrior group will not appear next week, leaving the rest of the cast members to form the Explorers and Planners parties.
