First Post
Welcome back to part three of the Pathfinder Adventure Path: "Rise of the Runelords", "The Hook Mountain Massacre".
The first part of this adventure, Burnt Offerings, spawned an 1100+ post thread, and took about 10 months to complete. The full thread is here, for those who wish to review what has gone before.
The second part of this adventure, The Skinsaw Murders, was even more sprawling in nature, taking just short of 14 months to complete and over 1200 posts. It can be viewed for posterity at this link .
And so we move on to a new thread to mark part three of the Rise of the Runelords adventure path. We will be continuing with the existing cast, but we have decided to convert to Pathfinder RPG for this, and future adventures in the path
So far the cast of players and characters have survived the assault of a crazy gang of goblins driven by a woman turned to demonic madness by her haunted past. They took the battle to the goblins, burnt their stronghold to the ground, and stopped a horrific evil that was lurking beneath the very streets of Sandpoint.
Then they were called in to help solve a truely barbaric sequence of murders. They uncovered a ghast and his ghoul minions, an old acquaintance, had been driven to build an army of ghouls. They tracked him down to his mansion, and put an end to him and the evil that lurked there. Clues led them to Magnimar, where they uncovered and defeated some great evil that seemed to be intent of driving countless murders to fuel some great slumbering evil. It was not without cost though, for they tasted death, and very nearly tasted defeat.
The doyens of Magnimar and Sandpoint, the heroes took a well deserved rest. They found that rest boring, and worse ... it made them realise that the frenzy of their lives, and their new found role as heroes, did not really offer them any easy avenues back into a comfortable life. Anxious to do something of some purpose, the heroes once again met up in Magnimar.
And so starts part 3...
