Intro

Год 351 п.и., Колыбель, Шпиль Совета Арканы, малый зал совещаний

По результатам оценки эффективности хексрейд партий, Триумвират ежегодно составляет рейтинг команд и награждает лучших. В рейтинг идёт множество факторов, от прямой боевой и зачистной эффективности, до вклада в исследовательскую деятельность и расширение известных и контролируемых территорий. И хотя некоторые молодые безымянные команды не показали себя особенно успешными, тем не менее они удостоились поощрительных призов и отдельных упоминаний за отдельные достижения. Некоторых даже пригласили на специальные интервью. Ваша партия - последние на очереди на собеседование, по кратким отзывам уже прошедших интервью, там задают странные вопросы, хвалят, желают удачи и отправляют восвояси. Но один из интервьюверов - лорд Эдвард Таск, A.D. - лидер и основной пропонент программы дальних полётов, неоднократно заявлявший что основные вопросы решены и дело только за малым - найти подходящих кандидатов.

  Integrated Tool. Hache has disguise kit integrated into its body, which doubles Hacke's proficiency bonus for any ability checks made with it. Hacke must have its hands free to use this integrated tool.
  Embedded Docent. Hacke has docent embedded in its chest, which is designed to advise and assist the warforged it’s attached to. A docent is a small metal sphere, approximately 2 inches across, studded with dragonshards. Despite a strong magical aura, it has no obvious abilities. A docent communicates telepathically with its wielder and can perceive the world through wielder's senses. One of the simple functions of a docent is to serve as a translator. Hacke can use a bonus action on its turn to request that the docent use one of its properties on Hacke's behalf.
  Spellcasting. As a 3rd-level ranger Hacke has three 1st-level spell slots. He has DC 13 spell saves and +5 to hit with spell attacks.
