Session 006: In Which the Heroes, Lured by Treasure-filled Crypts, Face the Undead Gauntlet of Mott
Wherein Exposition Occurs
Ancient Holzanger crypts, sealed behind stone and mortar for centauries, contain unknown amounts of treasure. No hero has yet to claim the treasure as their own. The call for profit is too great for our heroes and they smash open multiple crypts under a veil of Silence. A few are rigged to defend their contents with explosive invisible glyphs and cause great injury to the heroes. Past the entrance they find the treasure within and fill their pockets with many gems. Distracted by the treasure they don't notice what lurks in the darkness behind them... The Evermaw, the Dry Lanes, Plane of the Undead connects to Midgard through a portal here. It exists as the afterlife for fell cannibals and vile ghouls, vampires, cannibals, and all manner of Lords of Undeath. It is a land filled of blood rivers flowing across great aqueducts that fuel powerful necromancers. Just a sliver of its full might begins its assault on our poor heroes. Wave after wave undead bring the assault but are brought down in turn. As the party begins to tire a wraith attacks from behind, looking to down the heroes one by one as skeletons clog the escape. If ever a hero was needed, now is the time of greatest need. Will darkness win or will the light shine true and pierce the darkness?We're not the Ghost Thinkers! We're the Ghost Punchers!
Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the Gods?
Where's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
