Jade Rabbit

On one excursion, Jade and the group entered a satellite town of the Azure City, only to realize too late they had walked into a trap - the town had been captured by Sienna, self-proclaimed leader of the Wildlings. She took the group captive and introduced them to her secret weapon: Fire. Banned from the city and considered taboo, Sienna planned to conquer the city and melt it to the ground. She released the Hunters, ordering them to warn the city she's coming.

While the rest of the party warns the city of the impending invasion, Jade meets with Mistleteinn to discuss a secret mission. They will send Charger, a Hunter scout, north to investigate the mountain she had seen at the spire. She sets off, without a clue as to what the Lunarians expect her to find.

While the Azure City sent warriors to intercept Sienna, the Hunters were sent to gather more Ambrosia. They encountered a dead hive, its last few residents barely clinging to life as phantoms. Jade and Chance fed Queen's Ambrosia to an Eadi and created Veenix, a cure sprite from the old world. She revitalized the hive and escorted the group back to the city, with barely enough ambrosia to keep it going for another year...

Shortly after arriving, the party is ambushed by a group of Lupercal and captured. They arrive at the Clan of the Moon, a city of Lupercal that Jade is initially enamored with. The clan has scrolls of knowledge that the Azurites would only dream of, and access to fire magic. The party meets with the Priestess of the clan, who brings them up to speed: The Clans of the Sun and Moon have been at war for centuries - the Moon clan believes wiping out the Sun clan will remove the sun from the sky and return the moon. The party sets out from the Clan of the Moon to try and find another way to end this.

While in the desert, the party enters the Temple of the Eclipse, where they encounter The Despoiler, who commands the powers of a god. After she is defeated, they meet the god of the sun, Solaar. He had been imprisoned and initially was wary of Jade, calling her a daughter of Selune with fear. He told them that Selune... "wasn't right," and that the Moon Clan were a death cult bent on destroying the one people that could help the desert. 

Solaar told the group that the Sun Clan, in a few days would commence a ceremony in his name, where he could regain more of his powers and try to bring balance back to the desert and heat to the Azure City so they could grow food. The party arrived at the Sun Clan's city as the Moon Clan began their march. They had only days to meet with their High Priestess and prepare before they would be at war. Jade, during the downtime, tracked down a Sun Clan priestess and learned fire magic from her in secret.

The Moon Clan quickly took over the city, slaying almost everyone they could find. The party fought a hard battle against one of the Moon Clan generals, killing him, but not before he killed Jade in combat. The party carried her corpse out of the city and retreated with the few survivors to a Spire. Solaar, dejected, ordered the party to return to the Azure city, revive Jade, and try to find a way to "fix" Selune as she would be their next concern...

Charger had found more Lunarians, but... wrong. They were bloodthirsty, killing anyone they could find. The Azure City and Sienna forged a loose pact to defend each other from this new threat. The Hunters were scattered - a group of zealous civilians blamed them as a scapegoat for their problems and killed as many in the city as they could find. Half of their already-small number had been wiped out in a single bloody night. The Lunarians of the city had been locked up for their own safety in the city jails. 

Moon Jumper plans on killing whoever is leading the Lunar Rabbits, and cannot stay with the party long. However, they manage to convince him to bring Jade's body to Mistleteinn in hopes of reviving their fallen comrade. The party begins the long journey north, unsure of what they will encounter in this new landscape...

In the Azure City, Moon Jumper sneaks past the civilian guards and finds the Lunarians locked in the castle. He drops off Jade's corpse onto her Mistleteinn and leaves without saying anything. Mistleteinn begins the ritual of revival - she is met with opposition at the use of rare materials, and she reveals Jade's identity. "I am the High Priestess, but I am a mother first and foremost."

When Jade is revived, she is brought up to speed on the state of affairs. Mistleteinn also reveals that Moon Jumper is Jade's half-brother, and asks her to bring him home. She is worried that his warlock pact with The Exile is corrupting him and will be his end.

Jade agrees, and eventually links up with the party as they camp outside the city. She introduces herself as Mizuki, scion of the Lunarians and asks to join them in their journey north.
