The Ardence were found to be a quasi-religious sect set up by Ser Traintel in order to further his attempts to return to the divine plane and conquer it as the entity known as Tiamat.<br /> <br /> = History =<br /> First encountered in a small and eventually flooded ruin to the east of Riverrun, the Ardence were thorns in the side of the Joeshoes from the beginning. The Ardence were often seen dungeon diving around places associated with [[Religion#Abbatchtkan Pantheon|Draconic religion]] such as Tinch, Qi&#039;Frayne and Normore. During the events of Ser Traintel&#039;s escape from Calmore, parts of the Ardence were indicted as co-conspirators.<br /> <br /> It is thought that members of the Ardence were involved in the kidnap and torture of [[Criskira]] and the conditions of slavery. <br /> <br /> It was also believed that the group tried to replace [[Astrid Vellowell]] on the council of Calmore in order to divert attention from their other activities.<br /> <br /> After being thwarted in Calmore, the Ardence disappeared for a time, perhaps to recruit and rearm their forces. They resurfaced at Ettinsmore Lighthouse, where the hasp that held [[Cerulo]] in stasis was destroyed. The following rampage by the dragon destroyed the majority of [[Ettinsmore]]. After this victory, the group returned to a base of operations at Qi&#039;Frayne, where further research into the prison of [[Erethian]] was being undertaken.<br /> <br /> Despite the efforts of [[Fulgor]] and the Joeshoes, including vanquishing Morrison and Quillin in the same fight, Erethian was eventually freed, and heralded the start of his attempt at ascension as Tiamat. <br /> <br /> = Known Members =<br /> * [[Ser Traintel]]<br /> * [[Morrison]] of Calmore<br /> * Alexis Faerunnír<br /> * Birel Galanodel<br /> * Mornokk Shadowbringer<br /> * Quillin<br /> * Kallac Stonesmith<br /> <br /> [[Category: Factions]][[Category: Campaign 1]]</div>
