Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lobo Lurker" data-source="post: 3708050" data-attributes="member: 25172">Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil Setting: EberronThe Setup: 150 miles southwest of the small but notable trading town of Ardev, at the foot of the Graywall Mountains that form the Droaam/Braeland border nestles a small settlement with a long and dark history. This unremarkable village, called Hommlet, witnessed the growth of one of the greatest centers of corruption in the world would never know: the Temple of Elemental Evil.Hommlet is a small town with a population of just under one thousand. Only twenty years ago, it was a hamlet of around one hundred people, although even then most folk referred to it as a village. Since that time, the town has enjoyed unprecedented peace and prosperity. This is the place where you grew up. This is the place you left when the recruiters came and bid you to fight in the Last War.The town is not ruled by a mayor or a town council as many others are. Instead, two veterans of the Last War called Rufus and Burne have been granted control of Hommlet and its lands by the powers that be for actions that they undertook during the War and against the Temple of Elemental Evil all those years ago. Most folks don’t see them as rulers, however, simply referring to the pair as the towns “elders,” giving them the respect that they have earned. Few grumble when it comes time to pay their taxes to the two lords. Most everyone appreciates the protection Rufus and Burne’s soldiers provide, as well as the role the two played in the downfall of the Temple of Elemental Evil (and the threats they have had to overcome, namely incursions from Droaam, to protect the town during the latter days of the Last War as well).The Twist:  Your group is a semi-well known group of adventurers who grew up in the Hommlet area. You’ve spent the last 2 months in a Kaarnathi prison due to a frame up during your last job, excavating some ancient medusa ruins in along the Kaarnath/Mhor border. Not only were you thrown in prison for thefts you did not commit, but all your choice gear and loot were stolen by your arch-rivals Tithian di’Denith and his Jade, an adventuring group with whom you maintain a fierce but largely bloodless rivalry. Your group has recently returned home to visit family and regroup (i.e., pick up your old adventuring equipment). It will be good to see the old town as you haven’t really been there since the end of the Last War.<a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=206020#usercptools" target="_blank">First Game Post Here!!!</a>The Rules: Obviously, all PCs will start the game knowing each other; most grew up near each other as well.
