Skraggorn - The Bugbear
He couldn't take the oasis. So he sits in the dunes and takes from everyone who walks away from it.
Oshenne Zephrain - Wind Interpreter of Zharessin Oasis
Every night the wind howls past the black rock ring around Zharessin Oasis, and Oshenne Zephrain, an air genasi elder of the council of shamans, tilts her head and listens. She gives the sound first, what she thinks it asked second, and never claims to know who is speaking.
Pitchperch - The Gargoyle
Every stone along the ring turns cold after sunset except one. It has been keeping a seat warm for you.
Rhazik Skyscale - Chieftain of Zharessin Oasis
Rhazik Skyscale is the bronze dragonborn chieftain of Zharessin Oasis, a calm, unhurried leader who keeps the desert's peace by listening first. He receives every guest seated, and he is far more dangerous than he lets anyone see.
Issue #3 - Into the Ardent Woods: A Missing Woodcarver, an Unfinished Song and a Festival Gone Wrong
This week in the Ardent Woods: a free information broker and a treehouse mystery, a banshee's four-hundred-year-old song for Local Heroes, and a festival-sabotage encounter for Heroes of the Realm.

Jheri Dunebloom - Remedy-Crafter of Zharessin Oasis

Sunsting - The Giant Wasp
In a desert where every landmark drifts, the one hollow that never moves is not a waypoint. It's a nest.
Wenna Pellory - The Weight-Taker
It's only an afternoon, love. I'll hold it for you. You'll never miss it.
Murkfin - The Hunter Shark
