Greylen pushes himself back from the scrying table with a small sigh. Rubbing his temples lightly with his fingertips, he smiles wryly to the little rust-red pseudodragon curled up asleep on his shoulder.

"Well, Xavier. It seems I am at an impasse. This information may be harder to glean that I had originally thought." He muses to him, not expecting a reply, but just talking out of force of habit.

"I shall have to investigate myself, I suppose." he continues to himself as he dismisses the levitating disk and stands, careful not to interrupt his best friends catnap.

With a practiced movement, Greylen makes an intricate sign and an iron-bound, wooden door appears in the wall of the small, unadorned chamber, and the soft white glow in the large crystal table in the center goes out. The door opens easily on well oiled hinges as he steps out onto the landing platform of the east tower and launches himself into the crisp, clean air of a beautiful summer day.

Greylen smiles to himself as he leisurely flies over to the central building of his castle home, the sight of the rolling ground far below never failing to get his heart thumping a little faster from the beauty of the view. Looking around he takes note they seem to be floating over the grain fields of a major kingdom, judging from the number of tiny workers in the fields and the extent of the crop being grown. He wonders briefly if those field workers would even notice the odd shaped cloud illusion that hides his floating castle, but then shrugs lightly, not truly caring if they did or even where they were at the moment, his mind still mostly occupied with the problem at hand.

“Meleniel!â€

Is is believed that....

Infyrana was hatched on the Prime Material plane, in a place full of sulphur, geysers, and heat vents. She was the first and only one of her clutch to hatch, for she destroyed the shells and weak bodies of her clutchmates immediately. This base treachery and blatant self-interest has characterized the rest of her very long existence.
She learned the draconic skills quickly, and grew even more rapidly. Her parents, somewhat fearful of her swift growth and preternatural intelligence, forced her from their cave. Infyrana flew for days, seeking a lair suitable for her purposes. At long last, she located a heated cave near a fallen tower in the middle of a shattered land.
After annihilating the old occupants of the cave, she began exploring the area. Despite the land’s battered appearance, it was rich in animal life and suitable prey, and the land held an added attraction: the tower
Exploring the ruin in polymorphed form, she found it to be an ancient wizard’s tower, untouched by the ravages of time. Inside were mysterious tomes, books of a highly theoretical nature detailing the character and casting of magic. Having hundreds of years at her disposal, she abandoned the usual draconic quest for treasure to study the magical theories she had found.
When at last she had finished exploring each of those theories, she emerged from her enforced absence from the world with a vengeance. Desecrating the tombs of long-dead kings and mages, and the fallen temples of perished gods of evil, she sought ever more power and knowledge. By conversing with the liches that dwelled within these tombs and temples, or looting these places if they had no intelligent dwellers, her power grew considerably. She learned enough magic to rival some of the greatest mages of her world.
However, even as she plotted even more devious and repellent ways to increase her might, she was driven from her cave by a stout band of dwarves who had heard of her forays into civilized lands. Her spell books were lost when she was forced to flee, and although she had little other treasure to lose, the race of dwarves earned her eternal enmity for their presumption in removing her from her territory. As well, they had marred her otherwise flawless snout; to this day, she bears the scar of an enchanted dwarven axe across her nose.
After more tedious searching, she found an appropriate lair far from meddlesome humans and demihumans. Unfortunately, this area was already occupied by those who found it more advantageous to be far away from any civilizations. Among these were kobolds. At first, the dragon took scant notice of these, discounting them as beings beneath her attention. However, when they began to steal from her slowly-growing hoard, she took the time to ensure that they would steal from her no more.
She flew to the kobolds’ encampment and stole their shaman from their midst, knowing they would come to retrieve him. Upon reaching her cave, she and the shaman fell to conversing while she waited for the rest of the tribe to arrive. She, like most other beings, was surprised to discover that the kobolds were far more intelligent than they seemed.
When the rest of the kobolds arrived at her cave, her ardor for vengeance had cooled, and instead of engulfing them in flames, established an agreement with them. In return for their servitude and a “smallâ€

I am getting more excited as I have chatted with a few and it seems the sentiment is that everyone is getting pumped to play these characters again. It's going to be a wild and crazy ride!

Along with the background stories, I was thinking that everyone may want to update their mini figs to reflect where the character is now?

FYI There is going to be a new element to the DMing this time around. I am going to have a co-DM. I hope to have a good friend and excellent player/DM named Mike join me in keeping all of this EPIC stuff in line, and hopefully move some of the combat along faster. I am sure you guys will enjoy having Mike around. (in fact, you'll probably like him more than me!)
