The weeks leading up to the events that would represent the Obsidian Heart incursion into the Foulspawn Swamp of southern Madder were marked by many peculiar and troubling events. Animals and beasts, usually found only in the deepest areas of Foulspawn were suddenly making residence along its outskirts. There also seemed to be stronger currents and tide changes in the swamp than ever before, the ripples and white caps oddly present even when the wind wasn't blowing. In addition to such strange phenomena of the animals and environment itself odd sounds echo from the insect infested swamp at all hours of the day. Violent thrashing, the sound of ancient and massive trees snapping, and feral bellows that could make the biggest of dragons take pause. Several parties and local adventurers have dared to venture forth to find the source of these happenings, but few have returned and even less seem to have any true insight.
All this information is, of course, for you the player, to have your setting. The information that your character gathers by responding to this post can be used in the Return of the God Titan Story Arc. Most of it is specific to the second quest that takes place in Madder but there will be information that applies to everything. The RP posted here will result in XP and possibly GP. The actual amounts will be determined by whether or not enough RP exists to be board RP, a Mission, or a Quest.

The actual amounts will be determined by whether or not enough RP exists to be board RP, a Mission, or a Quest.
Guidelines:
- Simply RP out your character investigating the situation. Some Examples: 1) Trying to talk to locals or trying to track down the few adventurers who have made it back alive to see what information or rumors exist. 2) Sneaking around along the edges of the swamp to see what type of animals have run away from the center of the swamp. 3) Going somewhat into the swamp at various times to listen to see what sounds can be heard.
- After you have finished the RP use the board dice functionality to roll the appropriate Check, such as Diplomacy, Gather Information, Listening, Knowledge, etc. List your appropriate bonuses (skills, traits, etc.) in the same post as your roll.
- I'll come behind the post and see what the dice roll + bonuses equal and respond with appropriate information. While the responses will be visible to all players the details are only known by the character in which the response is for.
- Have fun and be creative!
