[QUOTE="Angelsboi, post: 411067, member: 1219"] Thanks to ScS (on the Kargatane boards). It is supposed to be 3 adventures long: [b]Season of the Witch[/b] [b]?[/b] [b]Hell-o-ween[/b] Fell free to add your own ideas. It needs to last 3 games. About 13 years ago after everyone parted their ways, the people of the hamlet rooted out a solitary young and inexperienced hag, posing as a baker. She was kidnapping children and burrying their bodies at the root of a large tree. The hag was hung from the very tree she was corrupting, but not before laying her final curse: [b][i]"My goal, i shall not fail, Hung to a tree, seperated claw and nail. Now i die but you will see, A bakers dozen opens the way for me!"[/i][/b][i][/i] Since then, the Hag Tree has continued to grow on the edge of a farmer's land, becoming warped and twisted. Many say its because of the hag who was hung on it. The tree is horribly twisted and ugly with age, and some say that strange things go on near it at night. Now, the hag has returned from the grave, resurected by the dark magic of the demonic tree. At the dawning of the harvest festival season, she hopes to finish the job she started 13 years ago. She intends to feed the tree the lives of young people (teenagers, children, and infants) so that it will rise as a hideous monster, a Death's Head Tree. She has corrupted the farmer who owns the property near the tree. Under her supervision, he has hired on her minions, enchanted human adults, as laborers on his pumkin farm while she resides in the forest close by. The pumpkins, raised in the vile earth of the farm, are malignant creatures. Once freed of their mother plant, the gourds are possessed by demonic spirits. When midnight draws near, they become jack-o-lanterns, vines grow anew into a skeltal body. They gather together and seek out a victim, most thus far are teenagers, since at festival season they are usually out and about at night. The victim is either killed out right, or dragged to the hag, who sacrifices them to the Hag-tree. The hag's black cat familiar is a common sight in town, though veryone thinks its quite harmless. The creature has a way of charming people into letting it into their homes. It can lie down over a sleeper's mouth and nose, effectivly suffocating them in their sleep. She has a cache of magic items at her disposal to use against the hamlet. [b][i]Notes[/i][/b][i][/i] - The hag has come back as a baker and has started her sweet shoppe back up. - The festival, Trouver d'hiver (Finding Winter), has started 3 days after she has set up shoppe again.
