Tales Of the Tower

Three tribes, bound by blood and separated by ideals...

Tower Mountain

Safe in their rockshaped mountain stronghold,  served and worshipped by a human tribe, the elves of Tower Mountain have survived on the World of Two Moons for thousands of years.  Currently re-awakening to the lures and dangers of the outside world after a long interval of darkness and decadence, the Tower elves pride themselves upon having maintained the skills and ideals of the High Ones in the face of a hostile world.  With its inhabitants free to explore the intricacies of  art and intrigue, and to develop their skills and magical talents to the fullest, Tower Mountain is a place of wonder, allure, and mystery to the forest elves who hear rumors of its magnificence.

New Hope

Founded by a group of elves and humans who left the Tower to seek a new life, New Hope strives to be a place where elf, human, and troll can all live in harmony and equality. With inhabitants drawn from many tribes and species, the seaside community of New Hope is becoming a center of trade–if it can survive the challenges from those outside the tribe who see it as easy prey, and those within the tribe who fear that in a hostile world, New Hope’s ideal of love for all people makes it its own worst enemy...

The Hidden Valley

Once the domain of the Tower elves' long lost kin, the Hidden Valley was plundered by trolls who left few survivors.  After centuries of abandonment, the Hidden Valley now harbors the Tower's deadliest enemies--exiles from the Tower itself.  Allied with savage Outsider elf tribes and a mysterious, powerful human empire, the Lords of the Hidden Valley plot their vengeance against those who betrayed them.
