[QUOTE="ValhallaGH, post: 3094446, member: 41187"] The Sword. Forged by servants of Gruumsh to help him gain his vengence, this simple and aged looking weapon (it's been beaten about and nicked but is still a solid looking weapon) is an extremely powerful artifact of evil (+X Elfdread, Acidic Blast longsword). Gruumsh got upset with that particular branch of followers (no one remembers why, exactly) and smashed the mountain they were working under. Unfortunately for Azrai, the sword is a) currently under a mountain and b) the sword isn't actually finished yet. It needs to go through a major ritual (dipped in lots of elf blood?) before it will be ready to slay the elf god. The Set-Up. Azrai has a few powerful and influential servants that will overtake the divine communication routes, spreading the lie that Corellean was killed by {insert human diety or champion}. The Heroes. They should be involved, at least tangentially, in all phases of the deity's quest. Either they are hired to ransack and raid the remains of the evil shrine or they run into the the groups that are hired for that task (friends or foes). They should be connected with the ritual. Arrive too late, have a chance to head it off or something else; maybe all of the above. Maybe it takes place on the Plane of Shadow so that the sword can be attuned to Azrai and become even more potent in his hands. Bam, you're now on the plane of shadow. There are some guidelines in the DMG for this plane (pg 152), which could help quite a bit. Good luck. Sounds like quite the epic challenge. Especially for a level 6 party. ;) [/QUOTE]
