- Simril is ruined! Someone or something has been pillaging all the food stores of Luskan, leaving very little leftover for the feast of Simril, let alone the long, cold winter to follow. Your party has been hired to hunt down this ruiner-of-holidays and recover the stolen sustenance.
Halsin the Archdruid has arrived all the way from the Emerald Grove. Our first Featured Champion is a devout follower of Silvanus who thrives in good-aligned formations. Halsin can be unlocked during Simril from December 4th through 25th.
The second Featured Champion is Stami "Stoki" Gackle, and she has received a significant reworked to focus on Champions who attack quickly. The 2024 Champion Spotlight for Stoki arrives on Friday, December 6th and the reworked Stoki will become available in Simril starting on Wednesday, December 11th.
For details on Simril 8 - and to learn about our Winterfest Celebration - read on!
Featured Champions
Halsin
Halsin, the esteemed Archdruid of the Emerald Grove, is a wise and powerful elf dedicated to the protection and preservation of nature. After being captured by goblins allied with the Absolute, he escaped and now fights to protect his grove and its inhabitants from this encroaching evil. He channels his deep connection to the natural world to aid his allies in their quests.
Learn more about Halsin in his Champion Spotlight.
Stoki
Stami Gackle was a fun-loving and reckless youth, but she fled her home when this carefree nature invited tragic loss into her life. She found shelter in Waterdeep with the monks of the Order of the Even-Handed, who gave her a new name and trained her in their ways. Now a capable adventurer, Stoki approaches problems with intense focus and careful consideration, having earned a reputation for being uncommonly stoic. However, Stoki's patient demeanor belies a warrior's ferocity as she unleashes a rapid flurry of masterful blows to any foe who refuses to back down.
Learn more about Stoki's Rebalance when her Champion Spotlight goes live on Friday, December 6th.
