Disclaimer: The following narrative assumes that all of you are somewhat fatigued from saving the world and are quietly going along with what is happening. I have tried to judge your actions based on what you all were most likely to do under the circumstances. If anyone has a particular objection to this state of affairs, write me back and let me know.

This is the first tale in the open-ended chronicle of Steve's infamous invoker, Tyconderoga Sampsonite, before his adventures with 2nd Group, and fleshes out his early history and the village of Ipmore.

This tale, set before the beginning of 2nd Group, is really the first piece of 2nd group fiction. It concerns Justin's infamous rogue, Bono Fosbury, and details a pivotal event early in his adventuring career. The story also pays homage to the long-forgotten Lunch Group campaign, revisting a character Justin played long ago and revealing where he went after that short-lived party disbanded.
