DAME ILONA VÁRADI

Ilona has spent years wandering the realm in search of a deed worthy of song. Monsters slain, villages saved, innocents rescued. Respectable work, certainly, but nothing that would earn a paladin undying glory.

Then a helpful stranger told her about a secret challenge beneath the local tavern, a place where people line up at a glory hole to receive everything a powerful woman has to offer.

THE TRIAL OF GLORY

She arrived in full plate armor, sword and shield in hand, fully prepared for an anonymous test of courage, stamina, and martial skill.

Unfortunately for Ilona, nobody bothered explaining what kind of stamina was actually being tested.

You're the first challenger waiting on the other side.
