Why bother defeating real villains when you can invent your own?

Alchemist and illusionist Tristan Thornwood has distilled heroism to a simple formula: spook the locals, seed rumors, then produce a little light show after offering a solution. Reap the rewards and move on. It's good business.

Up until the real heroes arrive...

What to expect:

- Slower paced, character driven introduction.

- More dialogue and other character interaction than combat and action.

- Somewhat relaxed, but NOT slice of life.
