Tric and Heppa experience daily saurian life up close and learn more about the society.

GM Notes

Of all the peoples that Tric and Heppa interacted with during this campaign, the saurians have always felt to me like the most foreign. They have very short lives, they have a very rigid gender divide in their societal roles, and they are not mammalian. Those are all details drawn from their entry in the Battle for Wesnoth wiki. I decided to lean further into all that in this arc, inspired by the various fish, reptiles, and amphibians that can change sex (ref: https://www.treehugger.com/animals-can-change-their-sex-4869361). Although Salras is not transgender in the same sense as a human in the real world might be, I did talk with the transgender player in our group prior to introducing this topic, just to make sure I handled it in a way we would all be comfortable with.

This arc contains spoilers for the Battle for Wesnoth campaigns Eastern Invasion and the Legend of Wesmere, as well as references to Ashen Hearts, a User-Made Content campaign.

Our character art by Del Borovic and the map we refer to (by me!) can be found here.
