[QUOTE="mseds99, post: 1920893, member: 5306"] [b]Can't wait for the next session.[/b] My poor, poor players. Set in the FR. My players live in the city of Thentia on the Moonsea, which has been taken over by a large force of Zhents and Melvauntians loyal to a Banite priest named Grundlin (a 20th level rakshasa sorcerer with the Shade Template!). The Zhent forces overran the city, but with the PC's considerable efforts, "the Resistence" has been slowly taking back the city. Grundlin, being desperate, plans a last ditch effort to kill off his enemies. He has ordered an innocent citizen of the city to be killed every 5 minutes until the PC's are given over as prisoners of war to his captain. Knowing the PC's and the rest of the resistence will refuse, and they likely will storm their stronghold in the City, he has begun casting the 9th level corrupt spell "Apocolypse from the Sky" to kill most of the cities inhabitants. After all, undead are easier to control than the living...hehehe. The PC's will have an approximate 10% chance to stop this from happening. Possible, but not likely. Then again, they have surprised me before. At this point, the pc's will be devastated that their city is ruins, even though Grundlin killed most of his forces in the process. At that point, the local Red Wizard, Azzadar Kasul, who has his own personal agenda against Grundlin will tell the PC's that this is their ONE chance to kill Grundlin, being weakened considerably from casting the corrupt spell. Grundlin will had teleported back into his unholy temple to Bane under the deepest catacomb in Zhentil Keep and will be guarded by his favorite pet/ bodyguard, Genreva (a Blackdirge special! Tauric Medusa/Gorgon monster of Legend). Azzadar has been able to manipulate a flaw in the arcane defenses of the catacomb and is willing to transport the PC's via a teleport spell directly to the lair of Grundlin. In return, they must bring back his head, at which point, they will be instantly brought back to Thentia. The PC's must decaptitate Grundlin in his lair, while holding back the ridiclous amount of forces stationed outside his lair. Good luck, my silly little PC's. <Adult themes coming up> To make sure all is successful, Azzdar will send along his own personal cohort, the disgusting Thayan Knight, Savron Dynn to assist the PC's. Savron Dynn is one of the arch enemies of the PC's and a suspected child molester. In the past, Savron murdered a child by the name of Andrea, who has returned as a Banshee, killing Red Wizards in the name of vengeance. In response to the killings, Azzadar had completely sequestered his enclave, both in a physical and an arcane manner.
