The Twisted Hunters
Possible Session 0 for a new character.
Also, the players may have to face off against an old foe. Looks like they may want to help a new face in Eschbach.
Plot points/Scenes
A stranger comes walking into town and attracts unwanted attention, first from the Burgeaters and then both the Church & especially the Grove. A strange Druid has arrived from Hibernia who seems to be as much as an explorer as themselves. Unfortunately, there is a sudden upsurge at night of murders done by the draining of blood from victims. Why this is happening is anyones guess but most have their suspicions. They can make their way to the inn, maybe even the Eschbach Arms.
Some are likely to think the newcomer but likely to be old opponents of the adventurers. One thing is pointed out in some of the victims is the four sharp slender points on the neck or the neck being torn apart. Little blood remains. About 2 1d4 townspeople have been killed like this.
The players may notice that this is nearly the same way as Baobhan Sith kill and there seems to be some animal with them, a four-legged creature that possibly flies.
If they go hunting they may find that there is 2 Dragonnels in a heavily forested area nearby to the east. Both appear well-groomed and taken care off.
They may also find that the victims were murdered in the east of the new town, and looks as if they were killed slowly in out of the way places at night. The victims seem to have died slowly of exsanguination as if they were kept alive for a while.
Each if left for a night again another 2 1d4 townspeople are killed.
Though if the players camp out they may be able to confirm their suspicions and find that there is 5 Baobhan Sith operating in the area, and they attack in different directions, and potentially at different times.
If one of the players is attacked the Baobhan Sith may try to subdue the player and try to question them as to where Granny Barrowbye is. They may not even know who she is, and the Baobhan Sith may then decide to kill them out of hand and move on.
If all defeated, the players can warn Granny Barrowbye that both the Baobhan Sith and potentially Adalwolf is looking for her.
