The town of Verdigris is the finest city on the island continent of Eleri, a shining-green jewel of the empire. It’s ruled by the founder of the city, Entrócenite the Eternal, an ancient emerald dragon. The Emeralden Emperor is the last of his kind but continues to watch over the city and share the gift of magic with the guilds of Verdigres.
Our story starts in the outer ring of Verdigris. Here the guilds are few and far between because when it really comes down to it, magic ain’t free. But one Firbolg isn’t going to let that stop his dream of starting his own blacksmith guild. He may not have the thousands of gold that it would take to license the spells he needs, but he does have a handful of shady friends willing to help him out.
This risky heist will take you deep into the heart of Verdigris, to the beautiful green-gilded streets that you’ve only seen on festival days -- into the magical library -- the hoard of the Emeralden Emperor.
This game will be great if you like heist movies, whimsical fantasy tropes, and the color green Players should build Level 5 characters ahead.

Your character could come from any background, but you’re currently down on your luck. You’re friends with a local blacksmith, Yuri the Firbolg. He’s promised you an enormous amount of money (20g) if you can steal the properly licensed spells it will take for him to open a Blacksmith’s Guild.
You have 75g to purchase any armor, standard weapon, or standard adventuring equipment you want during character creation.
For spellcasters: if the spell components you need have no price, assume that you have them. Otherwise, you must factor this into your 75g to spend.
If you have any backstory notes, please let me know. Please send me a copy of (or link to) your character sheet at least 2 days before we play.
