Adventure Background

20 years ago, seemingly out of nowhere, monsters started to run rampant in the world. A half elf by the name Lia Evenwood disguised herself as a man and, taking on the name Varis, joined the humanoid forces in a fight against chaos. She quickly Became a hero in the conflict, and was promoted to one of tehe leading generals in the humanoid forces, despite her mixed race. When the war was over, she kept her disguise of a man and ruled over the city of Gariff (pronounced Gare-ITH) as a Baron.
