The Warriors Prime
Makius was an ambassador for the Maerfolk people, as well as an accomplished weather mage. Maerynis, home of the amphibious Maerfolk, was a great floating city. All was peaceful there . . . until Admiral Voss of the faraway land of Thorathia and his conquering fleet arrived and razed the city, killing hundreds. Makius and some others managed to flee to the Alliance of Kingdoms, but not all there trust the Maerfolk strangers.
Hugh was a magistrate who dabbled in astrology. One night when Hugh was stargazing with his brother Nigel (a watchman) a stream of starlight fell to the earth near them. And when the brothers went to investigate, they found a wounded starmage, who bestowed her magicks upon them before dying. The next day, Hugh found that Nigel had disappeared, and so set forth across the land to find him.
Blake was an explorer who specialised in the excavation of tombs, crypts, and dungeons. On one such exploration, he uncovered a magical relic: a spear that was once wielded by a long-lost fire god. Touching the item, the deity spoke to Blake, and offered divine power to him. He accepted, and thus gained the ability to channel the power of the sun! However, Blake’s power also rose and fell with the sun every day, so he was at his mightiest at noon, and powerless during the night.
Makius and Hugh, along with two others — Anthony (a bard) and Helen (a paladin) — were brought together to defeat a rampaging earth elemental, and remained allies since (with the occasional aid of Blake), as the Warriors Prime!
