Iron Gods Adventure Path [IC]:
You have come together to plan your next move as a group. Although most do not know everyone there are enough acquaintances that everyone can introduce those that are unfamiliar with some. You have decided to meet at The Copper Coin tavern. It is mid morning. After a short comparison of what everyone knows you have come to the conclusion that there are three courses of action:
1. The violet flame that has burned atop Black Hill for over a century has gone out, leaving a strangely seeping pit of rubble and bubbling fluids where the town’s livelihood once glowed day and night. An investigation of the site might provide information about what has happened to the flame.
2. Ever since Councilor Khonnir Baine, one of Torch’s more powerful wizards and a well-liked individual, went missing on his second expedition under Black Hill, the citizens of the nervous town have edged closer to outright panic. With their hands full handling the growing refuse and waste problems in town now that their primary disposal method is gone, the town council is eager to find out what happened to Khonnir and rescue him— they’ve made public a reward of 4,000 gp to any group that can recover Khonnir’s body; if he can be returned alive, they’ve promised to throw in the scroll of resurrection they’ve been holding on to in case they need to revive him. Interested parties are invited to speak to the council at Town Hall.
3. Khonnir Baine discovered the signs of unusual traffic on the banks of Weeping Pond, and shortly thereafter, the submerged tunnel that provides access to several heretofore unknown tunnels under Black Hill. His emergence from the caves with a deactivated semi-humanoid automaton sparked worries that something strange might be going on in the caverns, but when he failed to return from his second expedition a few days ago, those worries turned to outright fear. Several other adventuring parties have gone missing in the caves, and Torch finds itself running short on new volunteers.
Now all that must be decided is what to do first...
Each of you has also head a rumor:
[sblock=Aja]"I always figured Black Hill was hollow. There’s probably some big ancient ruin under our very feet connected to whatever machine makes the violet fire on the hilltop."[/sblock][sblock=Haley]"My cousin says his friend saw a monster snake in Crowfeather Lake, a beast big enough to swallow a wagon!"[/sblock][sblock=Olrich]"Jhestine over at Tempting Tonics is hoping to sell all of her stock so she can leave town—my wife says she’s taken a lover in Chesed and is moving north!"[/sblock][sblock=Twist]"The Technic League is behind the problems in town. One of their agents put out the torch so we’ll all go broke and they can take the place over for free!"[/sblock][sblock=Vandor]"The mechanical creature Councilman Baine found under the hill wasn’t the only one. Others have been crawling out of the ground around town and attacking people!"[/sblock][sblock=Zeta]"Wonder what happened to that good-looking woman with the purple hair? Doesn’t anyone else find it strange that she showed up a few days before the torch went out, and that no one’s seen her since?"[/sblock]
