Tabletop Lore
Hidden deep within the unforgiving peaks of the Steelpeak Mountains, the Crucible operates as a bloody open secret strictly governed by the Belfrian Merchant League. While the nobility gathers annually via hidden teleportation circles to empty their coffers and watch blood spill on the sand, a much darker machination stirs beneath the fighting pits. The adventurers summoned here are no mere entertainers; they are the unwitting keys to an ancient, emerging plot that threatens to unravel the kingdom’s fragile hierarchy from the inside out.
