Reason for Vengeance A group of adventurers from Neverwinter threw the Gray Wolf clan into disarray when they hunted down one of the great chiefs of the Gray Wolf tribe, Syken Nightblade.Sample file Eventually, Envir Sykensdottir managed to wrest leadership of the tribe from "pretenders," and is now bent on revenge against the adventurers who dishonored her tribe. Enter the Wheels and Swords caravan, which sent luxury foodstuffs and clockwork machines from Neverwinter to Mirabar. The Gray Wolf clan pounced on the caravan and took Efrio Potter as a prisoner. Fearing for his life, Efrio gave the Gray Wolves information on the inhabitants, locations, and organizations within Neverwinter. By being forthright he earned a quick and painless (if unexpected) death. With this new understanding, Envir Sykensdottir and her shaman Aav'nrr began plotting revenge on the murderers of Syken Nightblade. At first Efrio's information seemed useless, but soon a plan emerged. The shaman and a group of Sykensdottir's most loyal werewolves would infiltrate Neverwinter and slaughter the adventuring party that managed to kill their great leader.
