Heads-up: Spoilers for the third episode of Campaign 4 are included. The Combat-Oriented Party Revealed Episode 3 finished on a major cliffhanger and revealed the first table of characters who will split off from the central cast to begin their own adventure, apart from the additional parties. This warrior group includes the determined fighter (played by Travis Willingham), the agile character (Laura Bailey), the fierce warrior (Whitney), Wicander Halovar (Sam Riegel), and the mysterious adventurer (Robbie). Dividing the Cast With 13 cast members, it was clear from the beginning that having everyone at a single group would be impossible.

Kattigan is familiar with Timmony and advises that it is a dangerous location. Tyranny and The cleric, having resisted his family’s wishes to execute Teor and instead saved him, have no safe haven. But, their status as prominent individuals in the influential clan could help the party enter places they normally couldn’t. Furthermore, The grateful character pledged a eternal obligation to The savior for his deliverance and will now follow him anywhere. Wanted and Hunted Lastly, all of them are sought by the powers that govern Dol-Makjar for a multiple motives, making staying in the city no longer safe: The agile adventurer and The hero are known criminals.
