It stands to reason a people the Orlanthi term the Horse-spawn would have a great kinship with the beasts of the same name.  Some of these animals, though, are definitely the equal of any treasure.

Event Dialogue[]

Your explorers found an encampment of the cruel nomads you call the Horse-Spawn, and come back to tell you the rest of the clan about it.  They report seeing a magnificent horse, one that seemed so big and powerful that it must be magic.  The warrior <X> is excited by their words, and says that you should organize a war party to capture the magical steed.
  1. Convince the people that sending a party would be unwise
  2. Recruit warriors from other clans to join the party
  3. Reject <X>'s suggestion
  4. Seek the blessings of the gods before sending a party
  5. Send a party to capture the steed

Consequences[]

  • Outright rejection of the suggestion may cause a slight decrease the weaponthanes' spirit, unless the clan ring explains why.
  • In a way, this is the equivalent of a cattle raid, and as such there is a chance of failure.  If this happens, your party may be captured, or killed.
  • You can bolster your numbers if you have sufficient goods, and seek the favor of the gods to try and shift the odds in your favor.
  • If you succeed, you will have acquired a treasure:  the Goldeneye Horse.

Note:  Even in success, sometimes there is a cost.  In this case, a warrior may lose their life, while two others are wounded.
