The Background

It is the largest unexplored continent in the World (for the World is what the everyday folk call this orb on which life teems while the learned scholars name the place Taermus). This great new land is ripe for colonization by the King and Queen of Kingsland but the great minerals and other secrets hidden in the deep woods, mountains, and perhaps even in the swamps or icy glaciers are coveted by not only the throne but others who would seek out this land to plunder its spoils or to set up their own seat of power. For those willing to help explore and protect the colonists of this new land, there is good work and spoils to be had for them as well. Indeed, this is where we find the Troupe of the Newdawn, named for the new opportunities that await those brave explorers. The Troupe has set up a consignment for able bodies explorers who would face the unknowns in this new land.

Camp Newdawn is a modest establishment, having a makeshift "mess tent" that passes for a tavern and place to grab a small meal, the cabins where those of the Troupe and other visitors can get some rest, the Temple which is mostly devoted to Pelor but also holds a host of minor shrines as well, as well as the Officer's Tent for those of the Troupe who are considered its leaders, and a few storage tents for supplies and equipment.
