A chronicle of Breegarra's court, written from a world that was actually played.
[BHB] The Progression —
canon timeline
This file is raw material for The Progression, the story of
Breegarra and her court on Bree’s Hot Box (BHB), and on its local mirror
Bree’s Bower of Bliss (BBB) from 2026-09-17. It records what happened in
the world: who arrived, who was named, who died and came back, what was
built, and where.
The rule: facts only; fiction lives elsewhere; every line has
a date and a source. Nothing here is invented. Where two
records disagree, both are given. Where the records are silent, the
silence is listed in Part 5 rather than filled. The character sheets
carry short bios that their own index calls “invented flavour”; none of
that flavour is used here.
Scope is [BHB] only. The guild server (40PAG) is a
separate adventure and appears once, as the prologue the BHB characters
were ported from.
How to read a line.- **who** — what happened. *(source)* [category]. Dates are
the records’ own. The owner plays in US Central time and many logs are
in UTC, so an evening event can carry two dates; where that matters,
both are given. Source shorthand: thralls/x.md means
docs/bhb/characters/thralls/x.md, animals/x.md
means docs/bhb/characters/animals/x.md,
ledger 2026-09-19 means the chronicle collector’s
D:\ConanLocal\chronicle\ledger\2026-09-19.jsonl (outside
the repository; see README.md), and
a bare hash is a commit in this repository. The category
[gear] also covers levels, perks and growth;
[meta] marks a real-world server event the story can render
as an omen or skip.
Part 1 — Timeline
2026-08-19 — prologue
The world — Bree’s Hot Box was rented and came up
after an evening of crash-looping on its first mod list. (STATE.md;
docs/bhb/ops.md) [meta]
Breegarra — Her character on the guild server was
captured in 13 screenshots, with her two followers there, Lian the
Unflinching and Bjorn Broadback, as the template for her BHB self.
(3a1046a7; docs/bhb/characters/breegarra-rebuild-log.md)
[arrival]
2026-08-20 — arrival in the Exiled
Lands
Breegarra — Created on BHB at a landing spot in the
jungle on the southern shore of Noob River. (docs/bhb/places.md;
docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md) [arrival]
Breegarra — Raised to level 60 by granting
experience; an attempt to set the level directly had snapped her back to
level 3. (docs/bhb/characters/breegarra-rebuild-log.md;
0ff08a5f) [gear]
Breegarra — Recorded as a complete sorcerer: all 15
Tome of Kurak upgrades, through the Transportory Stone. The upgrade path
was written down this day; the date it was finished is not recorded.
(docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md; b4454583) [gear]
Breegarra — Her appearance was designed fresh on
BHB rather than copied from the guild character.
(docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md) [arrival]
Liana the Unflinching — Spawned as
Lian, a named Tier 4 fighter of the Heirs of the North; two
were rolled and the better kept, then changed to female, renamed Liana
and levelled to 20. (thralls/liana-the-unflinching.md;
a7d9bb52) [arrival]
Tycho — A named bearer took the place of the guild
character’s Bjorn Broadback rather than copying him. (a7d9bb52;
thralls/tycho.md) [arrival]
Luba the Luscious — A named Tier 4 entertainer of
the Relic Hunters was spawned, restoring the Entertained
buff (+50% health regeneration) the guild Breegarra had carried.
(docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md;
thralls/luba-the-luscious.md) [arrival]
The world — The port from the guild server was
declared complete; from here the two Breegarras diverge. (STATE.md;
docs/bhb/goals.md) [meta]
2026-08-21
Breegarra — Built the Noob Inn, a small shack right
where new players spawn on the southern shore of Noob River, about 250
units from her own landing spot, meant as “a first place of succour”.
(docs/bhb/places.md; 54f61c60) [build]
The world — City Suburb Tower, two Dogs of the
Desert camps and a Desert Dog patrol were recorded as places on the map.
(833d7fbe; 51102b4d; 80dbb9c5) [world]
2026-08-22
City Suburb Tower — Named Breegarra’s main base;
“several bases are planned; this is the primary one”.
(docs/bhb/places.md; f224dd7a) [build]
Mercy Breakwell, Grit Galabar, Akivasha, Gal
Greenhammer — Four station thralls were admin-spawned at level
0: a Taskmaster at the Wheel of Pain, a Miner at an Advanced Mining
Camp, an Alchemist, and a Blacksmith II (the first Gal).
(thralls/mercy-breakwell.md; thralls/grit-galabar.md;
thralls/akivasha.md; thralls/gal-greenhammer.md) [arrival]
Liana, Tycho, Luba — Read off the follower screens:
Liana at level 20 with the perks Quick,
Born Warrior and Redeemed; Luba at level 12
with Robust. (thralls/liana-the-unflinching.md;
thralls/luba-the-luscious.md; b8bdf55b) [gear]
Touras the Predator — A named Tier 4 at level 0 is
on the roster by this date according to his sheet; the commit that first
records him is dated 2026-08-25. How he was acquired is not recorded.
(thralls/touras-the-predator.md; f50ce627) [arrival]
Ilyra Honeycrock — The house cook was present,
unnamed and unread. (thralls/ilyra-honeycrock.md)
[arrival]
Sly Silvera — A merchant was set up at City Tower.
(docs/bhb/characters/thralls.md; f224dd7a) [arrival]
The court — The crew could now be dressed in
working clothes through armour transmog. (docs/bhb/goals.md)
[gear]
2026-08-23
Tanith Rose — A Shemite Tanner III joined the City
Tower bench crew at the Tannery and was given her name, “a name from her
own people”. (thralls/tanith-rose.md; 73e2a9ae; 6d472d29)
[arrival]
Ilyra Honeycrock — Kept wandering in and out
through a City Tower cellar door until the door was locked against
thralls. (thralls/ilyra-honeycrock.md; eee5ca65) [build]
Two horses — Raised from foals at the Stables,
later named Columbine and Harlequin; the plain bay was judged the better
mount. The roster dates this 2026-08-23; the design file says “raised
2026-09-12”. (animals/columbine.md; animals/harlequin.md;
a3afcd13) [pet]
The world — Building was allowed anywhere,
including on unclaimed ground. (docs/bhb/settings.md; e5ee865a)
[meta]
2026-08-24
Bram Temperwright — A Darfari Armorer III joined
the City Tower bench crew; how he was acquired is not recorded.
(thralls/bram-temperwright.md; 95250d41) [arrival]
2026-08-25 — the first purges
City Suburb Tower — The first Threat VI purge was
called off before it spawned (“it is hard to reach your treasure”); the
owner gave the treasure room ground-level access the same day, and later
purges ran. (docs/bhb/purges.md) [purge]
City Suburb Tower — Four Threat VI purges were
survived by this date, three cages each: about six generic archers, a
Tier 2, three named Tier 4s, a Zamorian barkeeper and Isscar the
Sellsword. Not one crafter. The dates of the individual purges are not
recorded. (docs/bhb/purges.md; 7b69da2c) [purge]
Alren Storm — A named Tier 4 archer taken from a
cage. One table in the purge log calls him the only named Tier 4 of
these purges; the same log elsewhere counts three, with Makes-Waves and
Narcissa. (thralls/alren-storm.md; docs/bhb/purges.md)
[capture]
Makes-Waves — A named Tier 4 Kushite dancer of the
Cultists of Dagon taken from a cage in the fourth purge.
(thralls/makes-waves.md; 1e6dc1a1) [capture]
Narcissa Farsight — A named Tier 4 archer taken
from a cage in the fourth purge; the wiki lists her as obtainable only
from purge cages. (thralls/narcissa-farsight.md;
docs/bhb/purges.md) [capture]
Two Lemurian archers — Taken from the cages and
placed on City Tower’s wall as static defence, later named Xantha
Stillwatch and Orvath Longwatch. (thralls/xantha-stillwatch.md;
thralls/orvath-longwatch.md) [capture]
Isscar the Sellsword — Came out of one of the
cages, was freed, and traded with; Breegarra bought Mercenary Banners
from him. (docs/bhb/purges.md) [capture]
The Tavern — The freed Zamorian barkeeper (later
Ivga Cutwater) went behind the Tavern Bar, the one barkeeper who can
summon Isscar to the base for a fee; the original Darfari barkeeper
(later Nyala Neverdry) was kept and seated at a table.
(thralls/ivga-cutwater.md; thralls/nyala-neverdry.md; 2da651b3)
[move]
Nessa Dovetail — A Hyborian Carpenter III was
acquired and placed at the Carpenter’s Bench; the channel is not
recorded. (thralls/nessa-dovetail.md; 13dc695c) [arrival]
Achish Emberfast — A Shemite Blacksmith III arrived
at level 1 with experience already on him, “earned, not spawned”; where
he came from is not recorded. (thralls/achish-emberfast.md;
dc9e573c) [arrival]
Gal Greenhammer — The original Blacksmith II was
replaced by a Vanir Loysing Blacksmith III, almost certainly
admin-spawned, who was given the same name and re-skinned to match.
(thralls/gal-greenhammer.md; f353329c) [arrival]
Freydis Rivewood — A Vanir Loysing Carpenter III
was admin-spawned; reported as a named carpenter, the alias showed a
generic Tier 3. (thralls/freydis-rivewood.md; e8b01805)
[arrival]
Stoker Bram the Accursed — A named Tier 4 smelter
(+150% crafting speed) was admin-spawned after four purges yielded no
crafter, chosen at random from the named smelters.
(thralls/stoker-bram-the-accursed.md; 9bb31426) [arrival]
City Suburb Tower — Counted at 22 thralls: seven
combat followers, nine station staff, two wall archers, two barkeepers,
a merchant and a cook. (STATE.md) [build]
2026-09-05
The world — The game client patched and the server
did not, so the server could not be joined until it was updated.
(docs/bhb/ops.md) [meta]
Breegarra — The owner’s goal for her was written
down for the first time: move the retinue, the court and not only the
player, around the map together; the carriage is “immersion, not
logistics”. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md;
docs/bhb/the-progress-history.md) [move]
2026-09-06 — The Progress is named
The court — The plan was named The Progress, after
the royal progress of a monarch travelling between residences with the
whole household. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md; 685364d5)
[build]
The court — Settled as a second residence and then
about five more: City Suburb Tower stays staffed and the court travels
between houses. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md) [build]
The court — Followers were confirmed to ride
alongside Breegarra on horses and to dismount to fight.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md; f69a4020) [move]
The Lumberjack — City Tower’s lumberjack was
reported dead. He had never been recorded, so his name, origin and the
manner of his death are unknown. (docs/bhb/the-progress-history.md;
c0e0d6a7) [death]
Kestrel Vane, Sanda Holdfast — Two fighters, won in
a Headhunter competition before this date, both level 0, naked and
unarmed, were named. (thralls/kestrel-vane.md;
thralls/sanda-holdfast.md; a9102850) [naming]
Kestrel Vane — Built as an archer and levelled from
0 to 12 at the City with No Name, rolling the perk
Thick Skull. (thralls/kestrel-vane.md; adf0f60b)
[gear]
Sanda Holdfast — Assigned as standing staff, a
residence guard at City Tower; still unarmed.
(thralls/sanda-holdfast.md) [move]
Achish Emberfast, Freydis Rivewood, Nessa Dovetail
— The owner named Achish and Freydis; Nessa was found already named by
him. (thralls/achish-emberfast.md; thralls/freydis-rivewood.md;
thralls/nessa-dovetail.md; 5229ec77) [naming]
Columbine — The plain bay horse was named.
(4c41e1c5; animals/columbine.md) [pet]
Stoker Bram the Accursed — Named the first member
of the travelling crafter set.
(thralls/stoker-bram-the-accursed.md) [promotion]
The court — Three Heldamar carriages were chosen as
the wagon train of The Progress; what they would carry was proposed as
the Wardrobe, the household goods and the Chamber.
(docs/bhb/the-progress-history.md; 0609bc15) [move]
2026-09-07
Luba, Makes-Waves — Luba travels with the court;
Makes-Waves stays at City Tower as its entertainer.
(thralls/luba-the-luscious.md; thralls/makes-waves.md;
fbb51b23) [move]
Mercy Breakwell — Appointed Seneschal of City Tower
and renamed Seneschal: Mercy Breakwell in-game, the first
office in the household. (thralls/mercy-breakwell.md; 47000ffe)
[promotion]
The household — Pet policy set: one pet for each
residence, plus one that travels. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md;
7631194a) [pet]
Breegarra — Travel policy set: walk by default,
teleport rarely, fly only in emergencies. (docs/bhb/goals.md)
[meta]
Otchigin — A Hyrkanian Rancher III was captured and
held for later; the site is not recorded. (thralls/otchigin.md)
[capture]
Purge Base I — A Threat VIII purge fought from a
small outpost about 440 m east of the Tower was lost: Breegarra was
driven off, died three times, and her client crashed mid-fight; Kestrel
was displaced east of the Tower. The log times fall on 2026-09-08 UTC.
(docs/bhb/purges.md; docs/bhb/places.md; 222fd0e4) [purge]
Liana the Unflinching — Lost in that purge. The
records disagree: the purge log says she was alive and displaced and no
restore was needed; the operations log, written after, says she was gone
from the world with all 11 of her item stacks and was recovered by a
restore. Neither says she was killed; the only log line naming her has
her landing a killing blow. (docs/bhb/purges.md; docs/bhb/ops.md;
55fc5812) [death]
2026-09-08
The world — The first database restore rolled the
world back to before the failed purge; Liana returned with her 11 item
stacks, and three destroyed buildings stood again. (docs/bhb/ops.md;
55fc5812) [world]
Purge Base II — Built at the Treasure Coffer in
grid C7, because Mercenary Banners could not be placed at the first site
(“must be placed inside a friendly land claim”); a fortification, not a
residence. (docs/bhb/places.md; afbe1864) [build]
Purge Base II — A Threat VI purge from the new base
was won easily, the first purge to yield crafters: five prisoners, of
whom two wandered off and one came back on its own.
(docs/bhb/purges.md; f1b7dfe3; ddf1c390) [purge]
Daughter of Narcissa — A second Narcissa Farsight
came out of a cage, a different roll with 95% Vitality growth, and was
kept: “one fights, one stays”. One later record calls this the Threat
VIII purge; the purge log says Threat VI. (docs/bhb/purges.md;
thralls/daughter-of-narcissa.md; e24b6af1) [capture]
Unnamed captives — The same cages gave a Carpenter
III (kept as insurance), a third barkeeper (kept as “the next house’s
tavern”), a Blacksmith III that wandered off and returned, and one
prisoner that wandered off and did not return. None of these can be
matched to a named thrall in the records. (docs/bhb/purges.md;
6c1a0837) [capture]
The captives — Moved from Purge Base II to City
Tower, because every body at a purge site makes the waves harder.
(docs/bhb/places.md) [move]
2026-09-09 — Threat VIII
Kestrel Vane — At level 15 she had the perk
Brute and no weapon; an Elixir of Rebirth re-rolled her
perks to Expert Survivalist and Deadeye on the
first try. She took Turanian Phalanx armour, the bow Reach of the Red
Mother, 100 star-metal arrows and Black Claws.
(thralls/kestrel-vane.md; 09a845be) [gear]
Breegarra — Put on summoned Abyssal Armor and was
corrupted (health 660 to 360, stamina 195 to 97); she took it off within
the hour and moved to the Helm of Kraxus and Perfected Heavy, which left
her over-encumbered. (docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md; 0e892108;
c2cda2f3) [gear]
Purge Base II — The second Threat VIII attempt was
lost, though “closer than I thought”: Liana went down four times and was
lost; Breegarra respawned at a distant bedroll (the base’s bed was
probably destroyed) and the attackers’ camp vanished while the treasure
survived. The banner “helped a ton while it held”.
(docs/bhb/purges.md; 8507ede0) [purge]
Liana the Unflinching — Lost for the second time.
She is present again in the 16:26 UTC snapshot taken before the next
attempt; how she came back in between is not written up (the next
restore is numbered the third). (docs/bhb/ops.md; 8507ede0)
[death]
Purge Base II — Threat VIII won on the third
attempt, the first win at that level, after a full refit; Liana went
down four times and was lost again. (docs/bhb/purges.md;
f5a6247c) [purge]
The world — The third database restore rolled the
world back to 16:26 UTC to recover Liana. The won purge, its loot, seven
Commander’s Keys and any freed prisoners were surrendered, so this
victory did not happen in the world that continued.
(docs/bhb/ops.md; 998b7de0) [world]
The world — The Altar of the Fallen came to the
world: a resurrection altar whose default home is a sealed chamber deep
in Shaleback Hollow. (docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md;
33aba9ea) [world]
2026-09-10 — the first resurrection
Breegarra — Went into Shaleback Hollow after the
altar: pressure plates raised bridges out of the dark, another plate
only hummed (read as an elevator), and a locked “container” turned out
to be a stray storage box. She carried 176% of her load the whole way.
(docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md) [dungeon]
The Altar of the Fallen — Placed instead in the
open desert near the City Tower approach, about 44 m from the Tower; the
cave was never needed. Elixirs of Resurrection were crafted from blood,
skulls, bone and a sorcery reagent.
(docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; 4e47b548) [build]
Liana, Kestrel, Tycho, Luba, Makes-Waves — The
first five imprints were taken at the altar.
(docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; 65b7853f) [resurrection]
Luba the Luscious — Left behind by a teleport near
Shaleback Hollow; she had walked home to City Tower by the time anyone
went to find her. (docs/bhb/places.md;
thralls/luba-the-luscious.md) [move]
Purge Base II — The second Threat VIII win (11:53
to 12:09 UTC). Liana killed the Siege Demiurge; Breegarra was killed
twice; Kestrel went down late and was revived. The records disagree on
the boss: the purge entry says the boss challenged and the camp was
empty on arrival, while the later log analysis finds the boss never
spawned and the waves were never cleared. (docs/bhb/purges.md;
083c1530) [purge]
Liana the Unflinching — Went down once outside the
land claim, where she could not be rescued. By the dated entries this is
her fourth loss; the purge log and the altar record call it the third.
(docs/bhb/purges.md; docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; 0bde2c9d)
[death]
Liana the Unflinching — The first resurrection on
the server: she rose at the altar near death but regenerating, with no
gear and her behaviour settings reset to defaults. She came back on a
different body, a Dogs of the Desert Slaver, with health 3,609 raised to
22,448 and her level and three perks intact.
(docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; d4f8abda; 2fc6ba97)
[resurrection]
Liana the Unflinching — Re-armed with the maul
Quake and a 1,551-armour set, and set to chase, fight aggressively and
draw enemies to herself. (docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md;
thralls/liana-the-unflinching.md) [gear]
The world — Downed followers can now be rescued
outside a land claim, and thralls hit harder against enemies.
(docs/bhb/ops.md; c29494d0; 1aedec41) [meta]
Purge Base II — The third Threat VIII win, that
evening (logged as 2026-09-11 UTC): no thrall lost; Kestrel was downed
and rescued as herself, and rose from level 15 to 16; the base lost 33
building pieces. The capture commit calls this the second win; the purge
log calls it the third. (docs/bhb/purges.md; docs/bhb/ops.md;
adaa9414) [purge]
Corvin Blackdrake — A Black Dragon Master Archer
taken from a cage in that purge and kept: the hardest melee multiplier
on the roster, 2,916 health at level 0, carrying Kingslayer Daggers.
(thralls/corvin-blackdrake.md; adaa9414) [capture]
Leatherworker Kh’Urt — A named Tier 4 tanner taken
from the same cages and kept to replace Tanith Rose at the Tannery;
later named Marra Tallowgrain. (thralls/marra-tallowgrain.md;
adaa9414) [capture]
Hans the Brute, Tendonhacker — The other two
captives of that purge were released. (adaa9414) [capture]
2026-09-11
Grin — A Greater Hyena grew from the tenth whelp
raised in the Animal Pen at 12:20, after the first five rolled plain; he
became City Tower’s pet. (animals/grin.md; 0321aa75) [pet]
Otchigin — Read at level 0; the Hyrkanian took the
Rancher post that morning. (thralls/otchigin.md; cb357064)
[arrival]
Murilo Shaduf, Hiram Cedarfell — One trip to the
Dogs of the Desert yielded a Farmer III and a Shemite Lumberjack III;
with them, all four gathering professions were held for the first time,
and City Tower had never had a farmer before.
(thralls/murilo-shaduf.md; thralls/hiram-cedarfell.md;
cb357064) [capture]
Daughter of Narcissa — The second Narcissa had been
renamed by this date; the day of the rename is not recorded.
(thralls/daughter-of-narcissa.md) [naming]
Narcissa Farsight, Daughter of Narcissa — Both
archers by class were made swordswomen: bows taken away, Guardsman’s
Swords and Perfected Heavy armour given, tactic changed to chase.
(thralls/narcissa-farsight.md; thralls/daughter-of-narcissa.md;
e24b6af1) [gear]
2026-09-12 — the
household is named, and Midnight Grove
The court — Every thrall and pet (38 of them) was
given a nameplate of the form
<post> <function>: <name>, under four
headings: HC the Housecarls who travel and fight,
TR the Train who travel and do not, CT City
Tower, and Alt staff waiting for a house that does not yet
exist. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md;
docs/chatlogs/202609121310.the-nameplate-roster-travelling-artisans-and-a-solved-rancher.md)
[naming]
Liana the Unflinching — Named HC Hand,
the owner’s own choice over Sworn and
Constable: Breegarra’s senior body and front-line tank.
(thralls/liana-the-unflinching.md) [promotion]
Luba the Luscious — Named HC Almah, a
title “one only, ever”: Breegarra’s personal companion and confidant,
who travels with the court and fights when she must.
(thralls/luba-the-luscious.md; fe16ac3d) [romance/bond]
Sanda Holdfast — Taken off City Tower’s wall and
made HC Shield, the second tank beside Liana.
(thralls/sanda-holdfast.md; c907c1ff) [promotion]
Corvin Blackdrake — Promoted to
HC Harbinger, the one who rides ahead to a new house and is
set home there so the court can follow.
(thralls/corvin-blackdrake.md; f1a9cafb) [promotion]
Alren Storm — Made CT Castellan, head
of City Tower’s Watch, as “the best body not in use”.
(thralls/alren-storm.md; b19f81d3) [promotion]
Makes-Waves — Named CT Siren,
permanently stationed at City Tower’s tavern: “Sirens are the mythic
embodiment of alluring performance, and they are of the water.”
(thralls/makes-waves.md) [naming]
Xantha Stillwatch, Orvath Longwatch — City Tower’s
two wall archers were named, setting the -watch surname for
every Warder since. (thralls/xantha-stillwatch.md;
thralls/orvath-longwatch.md) [naming]
Nyala Neverdry, Ivga Cutwater — The Darfari
barkeeper became CT Hostess: Nyala Neverdry; the Zamorian
became Alt Siren: Ivga Cutwater and went into reserve,
taking the power to summon Isscar away from the seat.
(thralls/nyala-neverdry.md; thralls/ivga-cutwater.md; a46b1da7)
[naming]
Zabibi Saltcrock — A Zamorian Cook III was bought
at a bar for 100 gold and became City Tower’s cook when Ilyra joined the
Train. (thralls/zabibi-saltcrock.md) [arrival]
Ilyra Honeycrock — Named, and moved to the Train as
its travelling cook. (thralls/ilyra-honeycrock.md)
[naming]
Hiram Cedarfell, Murilo Shaduf, Otchigin — The
lumberjack, farmer and rancher were named and dressed; wood nodes and
farmer’s planters were laid out at City Tower and its gathering began:
“a Shemite timber man from cedar country, cutting a grove somebody
planted for him in the sand”. (thralls/hiram-cedarfell.md;
thralls/murilo-shaduf.md; thralls/otchigin.md; 1483778e)
[naming]
Sekhet Quenchwell — A Dogs of the Desert Blacksmith
III, found at level 1 and unplaced with no record of how she came, was
named and made the travelling blacksmith.
(thralls/sekhet-quenchwell.md) [arrival]
Jelme Mortise — A Hyrkanian Carpenter III wandered
off unnamed, was found on foot, and was named; his case gave the house
rule “rename on capture”. (thralls/jelme-mortise.md)
[naming]
Adisa Stockwell, Halvar Slagborn — A Kushite
Rancher III and a Vanir Loysing Smelter III, acquisition unrecorded,

1,187, load down to 63%, and Precision Strike working

Midnight Grove — Breegarra took nine followers into
the dungeon: Liana, Kestrel, Narcissa, the Daughter, Corvin, Tycho and

Pen was named HC Cat: Vesper, the evening star; the owner
chose to have her travel rather than guard a gate. Sirius
was held back for a Greater Sabretooth. (animals/vesper.md;

Vesper — Died in the field on the northern meat

wheel removed. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md; 7ae98323; 4ec4b833)

City Suburb Tower (CT) — Main base
from 2026-08-22: the seat and a Settlement. It has a Tavern with a bar
and seated hostess, a Wheel of Pain, a Tannery, Carpenter’s, Armorer’s
and Alchemist’s benches, a Furnace, an Animal Pen and Stables with a
Master Rancher Table, a mining camp, farmer’s planters, and a grove
planted in the sand for the lumberjack (2026-09-12). A shrine precinct
holds the Bower of Jhebbal Sag, a Derketo altar and, from 2026-09-12,
the Altar of the Fallen. Four Threat VI purges were fought here by
2026-08-25, after the treasure room was opened at ground level. Staffed
by 22 thralls on 2026-08-25. It is also where the reserve waits.
(docs/bhb/places.md; docs/bhb/purges.md;
docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; STATE.md)
Purge Base I — A small outpost of 19 pieces about
440 m east of the Tower. The Threat VIII purge of 2026-09-07 was lost
here, and Mercenary Banners would not place in its claim. Its
coordinates were never written down at the time and were recovered from
the database. (docs/bhb/places.md)
Purge Base II — Built 2026-09-08 at the Treasure
Coffer in grid C7, about 66 m lower than the Tower and a fortification
rather than a residence. It saw the Threat VI win of 2026-09-08, the
lost Threat VIII attempt and the rolled-back win of 2026-09-09, and the
wins of 2026-09-10 (twice). Liana fell here three times. It was damaged
by 33 pieces on 2026-09-10/11 and improved between purges. The war party
stood here on 2026-09-19. (docs/bhb/places.md; docs/bhb/purges.md;
docs/bhb/ops.md; ledger 2026-09-19)
Shaleback Hollow — A cave that holds the Tome of
Kurak on a Thaumaturgy Bench (noted 2026-08-20) and the default chamber
of the Altar of the Fallen, behind a door that opens only to a human
sacrifice. Breegarra went in on 2026-09-10 across bridges raised by
pressure plates, and left without the altar. (595fb70d;
docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md)
The City with No Name (the Unnamed City) — A
corrupted ruin of skeletons and dragons. Kestrel was levelled here on
2026-09-06. The Archives inside are a corruption-free pocket.
(thralls/kestrel-vane.md; docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Dragonwatch (DW) — The Unnamed City
outpost on the city’s south-west rim, outside the corruption: site
chosen 2026-09-13, built 2026-09-13/14. It has a Keep with a courtyard
in front, a Farmer Table, aloe planters, an Alchemist’s Bench, a
Firebowl Cauldron and a water well, so its healing potions are made on
site. It lies 1.91 km from City Tower, 756 m from the Archives and 329 m
from Pup Point. It is headed by a Castellan: Sonja, with Thalis and
Khafra on the wall, Bragoras in the kitchen, Jabari at the planters and
Sadeh as Siren. (docs/bhb/places.md;
docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Midnight Grove — A four-boss dungeon cleared
2026-09-12 by Breegarra and nine followers. It gave Shadebloom, Flesh of
Remembrance and the sixth religion.
(docs/chatlogs/202609131312.midnight-grove-won-the-war-party-imprinted-and-three-great-cats.md)
The Dogs of the Desert camps — Recorded 2026-08-21.
On 2026-09-11 they yielded City Tower’s farmer and lumberjack.
(51102b4d; cb357064)
Sepermeru — A Relic Hunter city near City Tower,
recorded as the place where all four gathering professions can be found,
with dancers in its bar. No visit is recorded. (docs/bhb/purges.md;
docs/bhb/characters/breegarra.md)
Rimehold (RH) — A stone and black-ice
Outpost in the snow near Star Ridge. It was designed 2026-09-14 as
“Starfall”, named 2026-09-15, and built 2026-09-17. Bearings: 543 m from
the Mounds of the Dead, 267 m from Skyfall Ridge, 1.99 km from City
Tower. It has a bent hillfort gate on the west into a low court, a hall
of black ice on the east, one tower (Strong Room, Barracks, Castellan’s
Quarters, roof), a stone kitchen with its own stack, and a Master Mining
Camp under a timber headframe. It was staffed seven of seven on
2026-09-18: Ulric, Thutmekri, Ctesphon, Ama, Merram, Brenna and Conn.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
The Mounds of the Dead — A Forgotten Tribe ground
531 m west of Rimehold, where Rimehold’s Cimmerians are native, and a
source of named Tier 4 crafters.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
The north — Frostneedle Forest (sabretooth
kittens), the Circle of Swords (foals), and the ground of the northern
meat run where Vesper died on 2026-09-13. A northern lodge site and a
northern mining site were surveyed that day.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md; a4feaf0d; 39c36ed9)
The Lodge (proposed) — The third kind of seat, for
rest and hunting, headed by a Verderer. The records place it both “on
the Jungle seat” and at a northern lodge site; nothing is built.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
The wagon train (proposed) — Three Heldamar
carriages chosen 2026-09-06, meant as the Wardrobe, the household goods
and the Chamber. Whether a train of three can be driven is untested.
(docs/bhb/the-progress-history.md)
Bree’s Bower of Bliss — Not a place in the world
but the world’s new home from 2026-09-17, after the rented server
stopped on 2026-09-16. (STATE.md)
Part 4 — Relationships on
record
Only what the records state. Nothing here is inferred.
Stated bonds and titles
Luba and Breegarra — Luba is HC Almah,
“Breegarra’s personal companion and confidant; travels with the court,
fights when she must”. Almah is a unique title, “one only, ever”. The
owner moved it onto Luba over the draft’s Favorite.
(thralls/luba-the-luscious.md; fe16ac3d; b0783f76)
Liana and Breegarra — Liana is
HC Hand, “Breegarra’s senior body and the party’s
front-line tank”. The superseded draft framed the pair as “Liana bound
by oath, Luba by affection”. (thralls/liana-the-unflinching.md;
b0783f76)
Narcissa and the Daughter — The Daughter of
Narcissa is a second roll of Narcissa Farsight from a later purge cage:
the same named thrall, with different growth. The records paired them as
“one fights, one stays”, and both now fight as blades.
(docs/bhb/purges.md; thralls/daughter-of-narcissa.md)
Luba and Belesa — Belesa Mirrorveil came out of a
cage as a second Luba the Luscious and was renamed and re-dressed so the
two are not mistaken. (thralls/belesa-mirrorveil.md)
Sonja and Ulric — Ulric Bearbaiter is recorded as
Sonja the Strider’s “melee-first twin, in the same Chieftain
Chestguard”. Both are Cimmerian and Forgotten Tribe.
(thralls/sonja-the-strider.md; docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Kestrel and Sanda — Won together in the Headhunter
competition and named the same day; they share a body type, the Slaver’s
411.5 health per point of Vitality. (thralls/kestrel-vane.md;
thralls/sanda-holdfast.md; docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Liana, Kestrel and Sanda — Since her resurrection
Liana wears the same Slaver body line as Kestrel and Sanda, and in the
purge log she and Sanda share one killer tag.
(docs/bhb/altar-of-the-fallen.md; docs/bhb/purges.md)
Nessa and Freydis — Named as a pair: “riving splits
timber, dovetailing joins it”. Jelme Mortise was named to pair with
Dovetail. (thralls/freydis-rivewood.md;
thralls/jelme-mortise.md)
Ilyra and Zabibi — The -crock surname
pairs the two cooks. (thralls/zabibi-saltcrock.md)
Brenna and Merram — Named as a pair: “Deepdelve
goes down; Hearthkeep stays up; both are keepers of something”.
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
The horses — A commedia troupe: Harlequin,
Columbine and Pierrot are “THE commedia love triangle”, and Brighella is
“Arlecchino’s fellow servant, so this pairs specifically with
Harlequin”. (docs/bhb/characters/thralls.md; eb3a2f66)
The great cats — A celestial set: Sol the sun, Luna
the moon, Vesper the evening star, with Sirius held for a Greater
Sabretooth. (818f3eb8)
The Tavern double act
Nyala and Ivga — At City Tower’s tavern the Darfari
Nyala Neverdry is the Hostess, “a promise, the kind of thing a house
advertises”. The Zamorian Ivga Cutwater is the barkeep who can summon
Isscar for a fee, “brokerage rather than hospitality… the fine print”.
Ivga went to reserve on 2026-09-12, leaving the bar to Nyala.
(a46b1da7; 3bbe31b8)
Makes-Waves — The Siren stationed at the same
tavern from 2026-09-12. (thralls/makes-waves.md)
Who serves under whom
City Tower — Governed by the Seneschal Mercy
Breakwell in Breegarra’s absence. Its Watch is commanded by the
Castellan Alren Storm, over the Warders Xantha Stillwatch and Orvath
Longwatch. “The court travels. The Watch stays.”
(docs/bhb/the-progress.md; thralls/alren-storm.md)
Dragonwatch — Headed by the Castellan Sonja the
Strider. Under her are the Warders Thalis Farwatch (Bow) and Khafra
Sandwatch (Blade), the cook Bragoras, the farmer Jabari and the Siren
Sadeh. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Rimehold — Headed by the Castellan Ulric
Bearbaiter. Under him are the Warders Thutmekri Coldwatch (Bow) and
Ctesphon Dawnwatch (Blade), the Siren Ama, the cook Merram, the miner
Brenna and the farmer Conn. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
The Housecarls — Liana is the Hand and Sanda the
Shield. Corvin is the Harbinger, who goes ahead of the court. The
Constable’s office is unfilled, and Liana is noted as holding it in
practice. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md)
Shared posts — Tycho and Pelor are the Train’s two
bearers. Thalis and Khafra share the Dragonwatch wall. Thutmekri and
Ctesphon share Rimehold’s gate walk. Nyala and, formerly, Ivga shared
City Tower’s tavern. (docs/bhb/the-progress.md;
thralls/.md)*
Spares behind posts — Bram Temperwright behind
Too-Many-Teeth (armorer); Hell Breath and Tanith Rose behind Marra
(tanner); Halvar behind Stoker Bram (smelter); Gal and Achish behind
Sekhet (blacksmith); Jelme and Nessa behind Freydis (carpenter); Adisa
and the unnamed Rancher III behind Otchigin (rancher). (the thrall
sheets)
Observed together (chronicle collector,
2026-09-19)
These are co-location readings from the world save, taken every five
minutes. They are not stated relationships.
At Dragonwatch, Sonja (sitting), Bragoras and Jabari (eating at a
table) were together at every reading through the day. (ledger
2026-09-19)
At City Tower, Nessa Dovetail (sitting), Too-Many-Teeth and Hiram
Cedarfell (eating at a table) were together at every reading.
(ledger 2026-09-19)
At Rimehold, Conn and Brenna sat together at 15:33 UTC; Merram,
Brenna and Conn kept their own round of work, meals and sleep.
(ledger 2026-09-19)
The travelling crafters were working at City Tower’s benches, not
with the court: Akivasha at the mixer, Stoker Bram at the furnace, Marra
at an artisan’s station. (ledger 2026-09-19)
Part 5 — Gaps
What the story will need and the records do not say.
Breegarra herself. Her origin, homeland, race,
starting religion, why she came to the Exiled Lands, and how she came to
be a level-60 sorcerer on arrival. The premise says only “newly arrived,
but arriving with substantial skills”. Her appearance was “designed
fresh” and is not described.
How the first companions came to her. Liana, Tycho
and Luba were admin-spawned in the port; the records give no in-world
meeting. The same holds for the four station thralls of 2026-08-22,
Stoker Bram, Freydis and the second Gal.
Unrecorded arrivals. Touras (and whether he is from
a purge at all), Achish, Nessa, Bram Temperwright, Tanith Rose, Ilyra,
Nyala, Sekhet, Jelme, Halvar, Adisa, Sadeh, Jabari, Thalis and Bragoras
(captured, but not where), Merram, and the Headhunter competition
itself: when, where and against whom.
The four Threat VI purges. Only their totals are
recorded, not their dates or order.
Liana’s second return on 2026-09-09. The records
show her lost after the second attempt and present again before the
third, with no separate account. The next restore is numbered the third,
which implies a second.
The rolled-back days. Twice (2026-09-08 and
2026-09-09) the world was restored to before a purge, and once a won
Threat VIII was erased. The records do not say how the fiction should
treat events that happened and then un-happened.
The 2026-09-14 purge. It is not written up: no
threat level, no account of the fight, no losses. Only its three
captives are recorded.
The captives of 2026-09-08. The Carpenter III, the
third barkeeper and the returning Blacksmith III cannot be matched to
named thralls. The fifth prisoner, who wandered off, was never
found.
The Lumberjack who died. No name, no origin, no
manner of death.
Vesper’s death. “Died in the field on the northern
meat run”: what killed her is not recorded.
What happened to the Greater Rhinoceros, Isabella the horse,
and the first Gal Greenhammer.
Why the Unnamed City outpost is called Dragonwatch.
The name first appears on 2026-09-13 with no stated reason.
Sadeh’s name. She was named and posted but reads
nameless in the 2026-09-18 save; whether she is still at Dragonwatch
under her name is unconfirmed.
Ivga at Rimehold. She was recalled from Rimehold on
2026-09-17 but observed there on 2026-09-19.
The Noob Inn. Whether it was ever stocked, and
whether anyone has used it.
Other people in the world. The roster lists one
likely player and a stranger, a traveller, who made a
character on 2026-09-18. Nothing more is known of either.
The Progress itself. The court has not yet
travelled as a progress. Corvin has not been sent ahead to set up a new
house, no journey by carriage is recorded, and the Lodge and a fourth or
fifth seat are unbuilt.
Relationships among the thralls. Beyond the titles
and pairings in Part 4, and the co-location readings, the records state
no feelings, rivalries or loyalties between any two souls.
Breegarra’s inner life, and the fate of her deaths.
The records count her deaths but not what they mean in the world, beyond
respawning at a bed or bedroll.
