Raphael's Narrative

Line 6:		Line 6:
	''This small town in southern Colorado just south of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range is located in a 'Shadowrun' Type Shadow, commonly referred to as Change World but officially called Shadow Garland. I visited this World and Town after I left my home in southern Arizona in an 'Apocalypse' Type Shadow, now commonly referred to as Plague World. I arrived in this Shadow and this small town unknowingly and at a time only 6 months after '''The Change''' took place; a Mystical Event that changed many people into Dwarves, Elves, Orcs and other Magical Beings, as well as unleashed Magic back into the world again and gave many people Magical Powers.

''

	''It wasn't long before things got ugly, what with all local bands of thugs and criminals wanting their little slice of the pie and the Big Crime Syndicates and New Governments wanting to claim all the territory they could... and for some reason, Fort Garland was in everyone's sites. I became known quickly and got involved in local events, willingly, and then Local and National Politics unwillingly. I was elected to become one of the Mayors of FG for as long as I stayed; I accepted, thinking I could do more good with ''some'' Authority rather than none. We fought off the Syndicate and the Broncos (the Armed Forces of the Government of New Colorado) with lots of help from all of my new friends... but the struggle ~~was not~~ over.''

	''A new threat from the West had arrived; a sizeable, organized and well equipped Military Force from the ~~New~~ Nation of Pacifica led by a female General trying to prove she could run with the ~~boys~~ and a psychotic Druid at her side. The Mayors of FG met with them and their Officers and realized they were taking over the area whether anyone liked it or not, and they were well armed and equipped enough to do it. We, the Mayors and advisors, met and talked about why everyone was so interested in the area; Christine had a Theory and a story to back it up... I listened.''

We, the Mayors and advisors, met afterwards and talked about why everyone was so interested in the area; Christine had a Theory and a story to back it up... I listened.''

	''It was soon discovered, by me and my new companions, that there was a Source of Power high in the southern part of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains just north of FG, so we went there, in a flying car named Chitty Chitty Bang Bang owned by my friend Zachary. I found the Source of Power at the bottom of Lily Lake just above the Tree Line in a Glacial Valley surrounded by high granite peaks; it was an Inscription of Power, which I soon discovered was a Low Order Version of the Pattern of Avalon. I named it 'The Sigil' but later officially became referred to as 'The Ft. Garland Sigil of Avalon' but usually its called 'The Sigil of Avalon' or just 'The Sigil'. I was the first to Assay the Sigil, followed by my companions; we gained its Imprint and some of its Powers.''

	''When we returned to Fort Garland things had gotten worse; the Pacifica Military had fully set up and taken over most of town. Many were about to be relocated to help in the War Efforts, most were afraid they were going to die if they left or be killed if they tried to stay. A plan was made to get as many out as possible, and with the help of H&TE, it came to pass that all the Orcs of Fort Garland (most formerly from Denver) and all the Dwarves of Fort Garland (including the Arco Boys and the Indian Hills Clan) left town in two different directions and ended up in other Worlds away from their old world at war.''

			''After a year of traveling with Zachary and Hepplewhite's Circus, the Arco Boys and I were 'Summoned', literally, back to Fort Garland... well, Castle Garland specifically. It was then that we learned of that Fortunadus had dropped a Total Warrior Constructed Castle on top of the Sigil and establish a Power Base with CHAD and H&TE. It seemed they had taken over all of Colorado and perhaps some surrounding areas as well. Fortunadus needed our help with guarding the Sigil, said it would be better politically if 'locals' did the job... it sounded a bit weak to me, but I went with it. Later I discovered that the Sigil was a bit resistant to Fort's people, but less so with me and mine. We all Assayed the Sigil repeated, established the Guardians Guild of Garland and helped to grant some stability to the local political situation.''
