Message: <blockquote data-quote="Trevalon Moonleirion" data-source="post: 1943125" data-attributes="member: 492">Happy New Year, my fellow EN Worlders!I'm having quite a bit of fun getting to run some stuff since I'm home from school for the holidays, and have in fact started up a new and fresh campaign in a world that I'm going to try and build from scratch.  The latest adventure has the PCs in an unexplored forest valley that's filled with undead and other unpleasantness.What do I need help with, you ask?What the hell do I run tomorrow afternoon?!My group has 2 Rangers, a sorceror, a cleric of a moon goddess, and a fighter/rogue.  all are  10th level and rather well equipped magically.My vague plan is as follows:PCs are in the inn of a small village that's just about devoid of inhabitants.  they've been either scared off, turned into undead, or just devoured by the nasties that are suddenly pouring out of an ancient graveyard from a fallen empire.  I have several ideas for good challenges: some cool new baddies from the Libris Mortis, a few suped up undead, and a good number of cannon-fodder than the party sorceror can obliviate with a well-placed fireball or two.Does anyone have any maps of a huge cemetary in a slightly forested area?What are some interesting things to put in the cemetary other than gravestones, a crypt or two, and undead?  Quicksand or something similar?  I want to keep the combats quick, but different and fun.Finally, and most importantly.  Who or what is the BBEG?  What has unleashed the horror of the undead upon the world?  A foolishly uttered incantation of an evil book (Army of Darkness, anyone?), a powerful intelligent undead creature? A necromancer? Other considerations: the PCs quite literally fell into this valley from their home in a mountainous city they were exiled wrongfully from.  who should i put in to let the PCs know where they are?  Should i start feeding them information about the origins of the new king's advisor that had these heroes disposed of in the first place?You guys have saved my butt in the past, so thanks in advance for anything you can do to help spark my creativity (or can just give me to shamelessly steal <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> )Thanks!</blockquote>
