A troll named Sulgrim seized the demesne after a power struggle, claiming right to rule in Gore based on his consumption of Tarrasque blood. He is unpopular among the remaining Lords Sanguine, but he has managed to consolidate power thanks to the might of his troll knights. Despite his long reign, Sulgrim refuses the rename the castle. He assures his human subjects that he is merely a steward, and will relinquish power upon Brucoloc's return from the Singing Wastes. Sulgrim, for all of his flaws, is a troll of his word, so the peasants toiling under his thumb cling to the hope of their lord's return.Sulgrim and his ten troll knights occupy only a small section of the keep. Much of the vast, ancient castle has fallen into shambles haunted by vermin, aberrations and spirits. Adventurers able to slip in and out of the castle often return with gold, silver and gems neglected or overlooked by the troll lords. Legend tells that the Bell of Six Answers still lies in a dungeon deep beneath the castle. An imp from Hell will come to whomever rings the bell on the Messenger's Day to hear six questions. It will reappear in the same place on the Day of the Bard with the answers.Hooks-What happened to Lord Brucoloc? Is he still alive somewhere?-Tell me about some of the troll knights.-What creatures haunt the castle?-When was the last time someone rang the Bell of Six Answers?</blockquote>
