Fall of the Valorous

[b][size=6][color=#f1c232][font=Times New Roman]A Call To Valor[/font][/color][/size][/b]
[size=4][font=Times New Roman]A new evil has made itself known to Faerûn - raveners. These undead dragons, under the leadership of a mysterious "Ravener King", have wiped out the Valor Inquisition and threaten the destruction of all living things.[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=Times New Roman]Stumbling upon the journal of one of the last known inquisitors, you are tasked with taking up the battle against the ravener menace. Will you rise to the occasion, or let Faerûn fall to ruin?[/font][/size]
[font=Times New Roman][size=2][color=#ff0000]Note: [/color]the main quest and side quests currently only span Act 1 and Act 1b. The story will continue throughout the rest of the game in later updates.[/size][/font]

[font=Times New Roman][b][color=#f1c232][size=6]New Enemies, Encounters and Bosses[/size][/color][/b][/font]
[size=4][font=Times New Roman]There are 3 completely new, hand-placed encounters throughout the Wilderness, featuring the fearsome raveners as well as reanimated Valor Inquisitors, whose souls were devoured in battle against the forces of the Ravener King. 3 existing encounters have also been altered by the addition of raveners, adding an extra layer of immersion and danger.[/font][/size]

[size=4][font=Times New Roman]Additionally, there are 2 new boss encounters. By progressing the main quest, you will find yourself facing off against a formidable Sentinel of the Ravener King, as well as the Vindicator of the Valorous, a once-legendary hero struck down by the forces of darkness.[/font][/size]

[font=Times New Roman][b][color=#f1c232][size=6]The Valor Inquisition[/size][/color][/b][/font]
[size=4][font=Times New Roman]Once the bulwark against the undead forces of the Ravener King, the Valor Inquisition has been all but destroyed. However, not all hope is lost. By sanctifying the remains of a fallen hero, you too can become Valorous.[/font][/size]
[size=4][font=Times New Roman]Fall of the Valorous adds a new subclass to the [url=https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/18318]Inquisitor[/url] class, which is gated by completion of a side quest and not initially selectable.[/font][/size]
