Southbend. Population: 127 4 3
A missive has arrived from the far south. Its destination? Osrona, 'Or thereabouts'. Its wild journey through the continent has its own story, and its messenger has had a long and weary road.
But Sentinel, the wearer of the Fenossi Interlocking Plate, is not difficult to find. The armored figure is a familiar sight in many places, a lumbering, good-natured behemoth, locked into the Advanced Plate Suit for the past six years, ever since leaving her home town, the tiny, forgotten hamlet of Southbend.
She receives the missive at the Osrona inn. It's very simple. It's from the mayor, of all people.
Her father, Elmar Fenossi, has died, age 79. Heart attack. Very sad. She has inherited his property, as custom in Southbend law.
Unfortunately, others have come to claim the spoils of his workshop, vultures circling around the old, curmudgeonly inventor's mysteries. Bandits, mostly -- those who long ago were promised the first prototypes of the Fenossi Plate.
Sentinel doesn't care. The old man is dead.. She can finally go home.
It turns out, her father probably didn't design the Interlocking Plate after all. But who did?
She knows her place is no longer in Southbend. She can use the armor for good. And one thing could be the key to the entire mystery of the Interlocking Plate's origins-
Elmar Fenossi's journals.
So, what is there left to do? She calls on anyone willing to help her, or she will go at it alone.
It's time to head home.

Event Name: The Journey Home
Risk: Anything. Bandits! Warlords! Angry rival inventors! Fenossi, an inventor who fell in a long time ago with some bad people, is finally dead. A lot of old problems are coalescing in Southbend.
Attendees: Anyone who knows Sentinel and wants to help. The more the merrier! If you're curious about the armor, there's history and lore behind it. Probably a limit of 4-5? Sentinel knows a lot of people!
Currently on board IC: The Black Knight, presumably the entire Black Order
DM: Anyone who wants to DM this! Have fun with it. It's the culmination of all my character's dev and a fantastic piece of lore that we can discuss ahead of time.
Time: I work weekends and Fridays so those are bad for me. Good any other time!
Rewards: Some last bit of dev for me, random gizmos, gadgets, maybe ores for the others? Sentinel doesn't actually want to keep the workshop and she burned down the old house, so she just wants the journals.
