Icewind Dale: Difference between revisions

The first game starts off in the humble fishing village of Easthaven, where your party has [[Jumped At the Call]] of adventure to accompany the hunter Hrothgar to Kuldahar, a village settled in the soothing warmth of a gigantic oak tree that lately has been getting a bit too chilly. As you investigate the source of this, it turns out that the tree's vanishing warmth is part of a larger plot between two warring [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]] seeking to seize control of the region. The second game picks up thirty years later and similarly starts off with the village of Targos being beset by goblin attacks, and leads into a plot about an army of monsters preparing to conquer the region.

* [[To Be Lawful or Good]]: The party is confronted with a dilemma: kill Marketh, a cruel thief who works for the [[Big Bad]] and abuses his lover Ginafae among other things. Several of his victims will want you to deliver justice to him. However, doing so will doom Ginafae as she's been cursed with a geas. Only by sparing Marketh will the party be given the option of freeing her.

* [[Woman Scorned]]: Icasaracht. [[Your Mileage May Vary|Depends on how the conversation is seen]]. From one point it seems like she had Aihonen's ancestor as a lover then later died because of him, thus invoking this trope. The other, and most likely case, is that she was just doing what dragons do and then came along the Hero Aihonen's Ancestor who then killed her, depriving her of everything she ever cherished.

Seer - When a human heart breaks, it may heal and forgive. When a heart of winter breaks, it is like ice... it shatters and can never be made whole again.<br />

CHARNAME - Why does this... creature that's possessed Wylfdene... why does she want to destroy the Ten-Towns?<br />
