A bandit army is preying upon villages belonging to an isolationist religious sect in Aldis. Envoys must investigate the mysterious bandits and their beastmasked leaders, and learn more about the sorcerous forces driving them, while navigating the challenges of feuding factions within a culture that wants little to do with outsiders. If they fail, a small scale war could be the result!

This is a romantic fantasy scenario where the PCs are envoys of the Queen of Aldis, a force of good against evil. The setting is inspired by the works of Tamora Pierce and Mercedes Lackey, and embraces alternative gender and lifestyle choices. The world is filled with ruined mansions, masquerade balls, vampiric curses, mysterious masks, sorcerous secrets, ghostly hauntings, lost loves, looming threats, and tragic quests where heroes are called upon to make the right choices.
