	The clan’s central shrine honors Vyrra, a black dragon who serves as its patron and protector. The Scorchtails owe her loyalty and observe oaths made in her name, but they retain their own clan leaders and govern their daily affairs. Members of the clan do not all regard Vyrra in the same way: some worship her, some respect her as a powerful guardian, and others treat the alliance as a practical necessity. Outsiders—especially Vyrra’s critics in Kyrecliff—often describe this relationship as servitude or subjugation.

			The swamp borders the hamlet and shapes Scorchtail life. Its plants, water, and other resources support the settlement, while flooding, insects, dangerous wildlife, and soft ground complicate construction and travel. The wetland forms a natural barrier along one side of the Nest, and raised paths connect the hamlet to areas the kobolds use within it.

	~~== World Lore ==~~

	== ~~Overview~~ ==		== Campaign Timeline ==
	~~The world surrounding~~ the ~~Scorchtail kobold clan~~ is ~~a vibrant tapestry of cultures~~, ~~locations~~, and ~~histories. From~~ the ~~bustling town~~ of Breachill to the ~~unique Tengu Village,~~ the ~~region is filled with opportunities~~ for ~~adventure~~, ~~discovery~~, and ~~diplomacy~~. ~~The~~ Scorchtail kobolds ~~are a shining example of resilience~~ and ~~ingenuity~~, ~~thriving alongside these other communities and leaving~~ a ~~distinct mark on the region’s evolving narrative~~.		''Vyrra’s Nest'' begins approximately two years after the events of the [[Age of Ashes\|Age of Ashes campaign]]. Breachill has repaired most of the visible damage from the fire and the Scarlet Triad conflict, but the town is still adjusting to renewed trade, new neighbors, and the legacy of the ancient gates.

			== The Region ==
			Breachill remains the region’s central settlement and the main meeting place for adventurers, merchants, and neighboring communities. Two nearby settlements have become increasingly important: Vyrra’s Nest, home of the Scorchtail kobolds, and [[Vyrra's Nest/Locations/Kyrecliff Roost\|Kyrecliff Roost]], a centuries-old tengu refuge.

	~~== Locations ==~~
	=== Breachill ===		=== Breachill ===
	* '~~''Description:''' A small town that acts as a central hub for adventurers~~. It ~~serves~~ as ~~a gateway for~~ the ~~Scorchtail kobolds to interact with other civilizations~~.		[[Vyrra's Nest/Locations/Breachill\|Breachill]] lies in eastern Isger near the foothills of the Five King Mountains. It began nearly 170 years ago as an outpost founded by human amnesiacs with the aid of the wizard Lamond Breachton. Its welcoming culture and long tradition of employing adventurers survived the recent crises.
	* '''Notable Connection:''' Pib and ~~Zarf, two kobolds from~~ the ~~Scorchtail clan, reside in Breachill and act as liaisons~~.

	~~===~~ Scorchtail ~~Clan ===~~		Pib and Zarf, two members of the Scorchtail clan, reside in town as liaisons. They represent the clan in trade disputes, arrange supplies, and help residents communicate with the Nest.
	* '''Location:''' A network of tunnels and chambers located in ~~the wilderness outside Breachill.~~
	* '''Notable Features:'''
	** A central shrine dedicated to Vyrra.
	** Various workshops showcasing the ~~kobolds' ingenuity~~ in ~~crafting~~ and ~~alchemy~~.

	=== ~~[[Vyrra's~~ Nest~~/Locations/Kyrecliff Roost\|Kyrecliff Roost]]~~ ===		=== Vyrra’s Nest and the Scorchtail Clan ===
	* '''~~Description:~~''' ~~A secluded and picturesque~~ settlement ~~inhabited by a community of tengu.

'''Vyrra’s Nest''' is both the name of the Scorchtail settlement and the campaign centered upon it. The settlement is a network of tunnels, workshops, storerooms, and living chambers built around the cavern claimed by Vyrra. It is about half a day’s travel from Breachill on foot.
	* '''History:''' The ~~Tengu Village was established centuries ago by~~ a ~~group~~ of ~~tengu fleeing persecution in distant lands. Over time, they developed a harmonious relationship with their environment, constructing homes that blend seamlessly with the surrounding forests.~~
	* '''Culture:'''
	** Storytelling is a revered art, ~~with elders passing down tales that mix history~~, ~~mythology~~, and ~~moral lessons~~.
	** Craftsmanship is ~~another cornerstone, especially in the creation of intricate wooden carvings, ceremonial masks, and unique weapons.~~
	** Festivals are vibrant and often include music, dance, and public performances of ancient stories.
	* '''Connection to Scorchtail:''' Occasional trade and shared lore between the Scorchtail kobolds and the tengu have led to a ~~mutually beneficial relationship. The tengu respect the kobolds’ resourcefulness, while the kobolds admire the tengu’s artistic skills and wisdom~~.

	~~== Regional Histories ==~~		The clan’s central shrine honors Vyrra, a black dragon who serves as its patron and protector. The Scorchtails owe her loyalty and observe oaths made in her name, but they retain their own clan leaders and govern their daily affairs. Members of the clan do not all regard Vyrra in the same way: some worship her, some respect her as a powerful guardian, and others treat the alliance as a practical necessity. Outsiders—especially Vyrra’s critics in Kyrecliff—often describe this relationship as servitude or subjugation.
	~~=== History of Breachill ===~~
	~~Breachill was founded~~ as ~~a frontier settlement and has grown into a thriving town due to~~ its ~~strategic location~~ and ~~reputation as a welcoming haven for adventurers~~. The ~~current timeline is set just after~~ the ~~events of~~ the ~~Age of Ashes adventure path~~, ~~marking~~ a ~~new chapter of recovery~~ and ~~growth for~~ the ~~town~~. ~~Over the years, it has become known for its cooperative spirit and openness to nearby communities, including the Scorchtail kobolds~~.

	=== ~~Legends~~ of the ~~Tengu Village =~~==		The alliance gathered a once-scattered population into a single clan and made the Scorchtails more influential in regional trade. Breachill recognizes them as neighbors and trading partners, although other communities remain wary of their allegiance to a black dragon.
	The tengu of the ~~village recount tales~~ of ~~their ancestors’ long journey~~ to ~~find a safe haven~~. ~~This arduous migration~~, ~~fraught~~ with ~~challenges from hostile environments~~ to ~~encounters with adversaries~~, ~~has instilled a deep sense~~ of ~~unity~~ and ~~survival within their community~~. Their ~~history is steeped~~ in ~~perseverance~~ and ~~creativity~~, ~~reflected~~ in ~~their architectural ingenuity~~, ~~vibrant oral traditions~~, and ~~communal life~~. ~~The tengu believe their resilience~~ and ~~harmony~~ with ~~nature are gifts from their~~ ancestral spirits~~, guiding them to~~ preserve ~~their rich heritage~~ and ~~maintain balance in their lives~~.
			=== Kyrecliff Roost ===
			[[Vyrra's Nest/Locations/Kyrecliff Roost\|Kyrecliff Roost]] stands on cliffs above a winding river and valley, roughly a day beyond the Nest by the established caravan trail. The hunting grounds and river crossings between the two settlements remain disputed.

			The roost was founded centuries ago by tengu fleeing persecution. Its people prize freedom, ingenuity, craftsmanship, storytelling, and reverence for the sky. Their spiritual traditions treat wind spirits as guides and ancestral spirits as the remembered voices of those who followed those guides to safety.

			== Relations Between the Nest and Kyrecliff ==
			The Scorchtails and the tengu maintain a tense but useful trade relationship. Kobold alchemical goods and crafted tools are exchanged for tengu carvings, weapons, stories, and goods brought through Kyrecliff’s human trading contacts. That commerce has encouraged mutual respect among merchants, artisans, and storytellers in both communities.

			The relationship is not peaceful throughout. Many tengu distrust Vyrra and regard the kobolds’ loyalty to her as a threat to regional freedom. Hunting rights and control of the caravan trail cause recurring disputes, and tengu raiders have attacked kobold caravans. Kael the Skycaller supports cautious negotiation while remaining suspicious of Vyrra. Tessa Sharpclaw represents a more hostile faction that wants Kyrecliff to dominate the Scorchtails. These factions explain why trade, admiration, mistrust, and violence can exist at the same time.

			== Regional History ==
			=== Breachill After the Age of Ashes ===
			The destruction of the Scarlet Triad and the events surrounding the ancient gates left Breachill with both scars and opportunities. Reconstruction drew craftspeople and merchants to town, while stories about its heroes attracted new adventurers. The gates and the people connected to them remain part of living memory, even as ordinary residents try to restore stable trade and civic life.

			Breachill’s recovery also brought more frequent contact with the Scorchtails. Their expertise in tunneling, crafting, and alchemy made them useful partners, while concern about Vyrra kept the alliance politically sensitive.

			=== The Founding of Kyrecliff ===
			Kyrecliff’s oral histories tell of ancestors who crossed hostile lands in search of a defensible refuge. They built into the cliffs and learned to read the valley winds, preserving history through stories, ceremonial masks, music, and public performance. Patron spirits are honored as guardians of places and crafts; wind spirits are associated with guidance and change; ancestral spirits preserve the memory and counsel of the community.

	~~Once a~~ small ~~and scattered group, the Scorchtail kobolds gained prominence after aligning themselves~~ with Vyrra, the ~~black dragon~~. ~~This relationship not only gave them a unifying purpose~~ but ~~also elevated their status among neighboring societies~~.		The Scorchtails were once scattered through small warrens outside Breachill. Their alliance with Vyrra gave them protection, a common center, and the resources to construct the Nest.

=== History of Breachill ===
Breachill was founded as a frontier settlement and has grown into a thriving town due to its strategic location and reputation as a welcoming haven for adventurers. The current timeline is set just after the events of the Age of Ashes adventure path, marking a new chapter of recovery and growth for the town. Over the years, it has become known for its cooperative spirit and openness to nearby communities, including the Scorchtail kobolds.

=== Legends of the Tengu Village ===
The tengu of the village recount tales of their ancestors’ long journey to find a safe haven. This arduous migration, fraught with challenges from hostile environments to encounters with adversaries, has instilled a deep sense of unity and survival within their community. Their history is steeped in perseverance and creativity, reflected in their architectural ingenuity, vibrant oral traditions, and communal life. The tengu believe their resilience and harmony with nature are gifts from their ancestral spirits, guiding them to preserve their rich heritage and maintain balance in their lives.

=== The Rise of the Scorchtail Clan ===
Once a small and scattered group, the Scorchtail kobolds gained prominence after aligning themselves with Vyrra, the black dragon. This relationship not only gave them a unifying purpose but also elevated their status among neighboring societies.
