The Empire as we know it originated on Aizo. The humans developed a civilization, cities, and more. There they fought against the giants, nephilim, and troglodytes and wiped them out. They developed boats and sailed in search of other continents. They discovered Pralgad and Vantanas. Vantanas was just a jungle to them, but Pralgad was much more hospitable.

The Empire made war with the tribes on Pralgad and took them over. Pralgad offered a better environment for crops and was much less mountainous, so they settled there and moved the capital to Pralgad. Eventually they returned to Vantanas and began to clear some of the forest. They discovered its rich mineral deposits and spices and rich trading companies sprang up. Around this time, the Anama faith was embroiled in a bitter conflict with the Empire, and they were slaughtered. The remaining Anama fled, eventually ending up on the Isle of Bigail.

South of Pralgad was Valorim, a land ruled by the vicious Ratbane clan of Nephilim. The Empire constructed Blackcrag Fortress at the southern end of the isthmus connected Pralgad and Valorim and began to mount attacks. After about 50-75 years, the Nephilim were overwhelmed and the cities of Gale and Lorelei were established.

At this point, Hawthorne I was the Emperor. His court mages discovered the system of caves beneath the surface, and he sent an expedition. The expedition was led by Thralni, and some of the other members were Scrioth, Karzoth, and Korthax. This expedition was slaughtered, "to a man and a woman."

After Hawthorne I's death his son, Hawthorne II, came to power. He began to send down violent and dangerous criminals of the foulest sort, instead of executing them. At this point, there was a power struggle among the mages, and Garzahd and his cronies won and appointed him the advisor to Hawthorne II. Hawthorne II sent these mages down to Exile, including Erika, Rone, Solberg, Aimee, and Patrick.

When Hawthorne II died and Hawthorne III came to power, Garzahd remained his advisor. Hawthorne III saw the portal to Exile as the answers to all of society's troubles. All the misfits, antisocials, petty lawbreakers, and more were sent down to Exile. And this proved to be his undoing.

Exile's History:

After the first few people were sent down, they established a city and began to fight the demons and sliths that threatened them. When the mages were sent down, they were able to help stage an assault on Grah-Hoth, and they captured him in a bottle and stored him in Akhronath, with the lich-ified Prince Hrothar, who had fallen in the battle, to watch over him.

When Micah was sent down, he worked closely with the archmages to establish a society. They created glowing mushrooms, built more cities, learned to fight, and they took over the caves.

A man opened the front door of the inn, walked through, and closed it softly. "Henri is dead!" he shouted. The men stared at each other. Triksi stared at Moppet, promptly falling under his hypnotic spell. Moppet, staring back at her, was hypnotised as well, and both snapped out of it when they fell to the ground.

The man removed his cloak from the chair behind him and took his watch from Wise Man. "It is one. Henri died at thirteen." He adjusts the hand on the clock, moving it past the bottom of the top of his shirt.

Coming back into the inn, he picked up his cloak from his legs and put it besides the dumpster of the palace. "There is only one way to save Henri. We must join the grand assassin to prevent him. He is going to kill the prime minister in the Capital."

No he wouldn't have. It would have been dealt with accordingly. I was away for the weekend and a bit shocked when TM and Scorp were demodded (everything had been edited away and TM left a fiery mess). It may even have been punished harder if I had been doling out the punishments, maybe not to TM but to Scorp.

Linear scenarios like Of Good And Evil, Nephil's Gambit, and even Tatterdemalion all have a plot that branches off and can be changed based on the actions of the players. It makes games much more enjoyable, even though straight linear scenarios like Chains and An Apology are excellent as well.

If this is what I think it was, there was nothing actually wrong with the images besides slight innuendo, and they expressed their feelings for each other.

I prefer linear sccenarios to open-ended, but having some side quests does not an open-ended scenario make. Exile I is what I'd consider an open-ended scenario, along with Chapter 4 of Exile II.

Linearity is good, especially when the party is involved in something vital to the scenario, like in An Apology or Requelle's Nightmare. I don't enjoy scenarios like TWotS.

Um, 65% is the lowest passing grade. As for the A's and B's, A-D is 100-65, and then everything below is F. I think the 100-65 is distributed between letters differently even within the U.S., so the percentage, not the letter, is what counts.
It's different everywhere. I've had 69 be an F, and I've had 49 be the first F (50 was a D-). It all depends on the teacher.

But when you're trying to conserve spell points, Spark is useful. And stumble or goo are good for binding up enemies.
