Act 1 culminated in a brief stand off with the very Paladin responsible for the Freeze, who alluded that a great power existed to the far north, a power that was connected to strange supernatural behaviors noticed during the freeze. A handful of heroes traveled the world (indeed traveling all the way to [[QuelmarCon 2025]] across the country) to investigate the dark power that lurked...in [[Paraska Manor]].

			A bit anticlimactic, but while those events unfolded, the Arctic Autumn then also ended, because [[Arctic Altercation\|heroes elsewhere]] stopped the ice age by killing the Paladin and rebalancing the elements.

	== About ==		== About ==
			In 466 PR, a veteran of the BR-Era [[War of Essence]] sought to finish the job he couldn't during the war: Kill the Elementals and destroy their homelands. That would become the story of [[Ancients Alive]]. But when the heroes of THAT campaign failed to contain or stop that Veteran [[Paladin]] in time, he took dramatic action, harnessing the primordial power of water itself to shift water into Ice everywhere, freezing Quelmar into an arctic extreme known as [[The Arctic Autumn]].
	It is 466 [[PR]].

	[[The Arctic Autumn~~]] happens.~~		=== Act 1: The Arctic Autumn ===
			The first 6-8 months of the campaign told the story of how southwest Osugbo (particularly near the city of [[Ravel]]) handled the Arctic Autumn. This was a long campaign of starvation, desperation, and finding the moments of heroism in a world that was destined to die soon.

			Act 1 culminated in a brief stand off with the very Paladin responsible for the Freeze, who alluded that a great power existed to the far north, a power that was connected to strange supernatural behaviors noticed during the freeze.
	That's apparently ''really'' bad for this region of south west [[Osugbo]].

			=== Act 2: The Cailleach Bhearab ===
			The next 6 months of the story covered the [[Bhéara\|Cailleach Bhéara]], a mysterious winter hag that seemingly had been awoken by the Freeze. In reality, while winter indeed made her strong, the inciting incident that unleashed her was actually brought on by all of the starvation and freezing death everywhere. The unthinkable number of dying creatures thinned the veil, and allowed her to escape from her afterlife prison.and hold a tight grip on Osugbo.

			She manifested as a friendly hag, and offered power and deals and XP and items and everything PCs could ever dream of...if they dared to take her gifts.

			Act 2 culminated in the [[The Fantasial Freeze/Megagame\|The Fantasial Freeze Megagame]] in which 20 or so of the campaign's PCs gathered together to lock away this hag forever, saving Quelmar for good from her corruption.

			=== Act 3: The Ending of Everything ===
			Act 3 told the tragic backstory of the Cailleach Bheara, and also revealed how she became a monstrous hag when she was once a beautiful Celtic deity named [[Brigid]]. The more players learned about her, the more they worked to save Brigid from her corrupted self, and in the process discover something more powerful than the Paladin, and more powerful than the Bearah, a [[Hething\|dark unnamed ''thing'']] which wanted nothing less than total destruction of Quelmar and desolation of its energies. Even worse, prophecies and visions of the future showed exactly that: It wins and the realm will end in just about 2 years in 468 [[PR]].

			Simultaneously to this 2-year long dramatic eldritch plot, 30 of the campaign players submitted their own personal goals, and most of Act 3 was about spotlighting individual PCs and helping them get their happy (or not so happy) endings.

			Act 3 culminated in the return to [[Paraska Manor]] where the dark power had formed a stronghold of sorts, and used its unimaginable prowess to melt the minds of those brave enough to try to take it down.
