[QUOTE="Delandel, post: 6381510, member: 81364"] [B]Backstory:[/B] Rune's Hollow used to be the headquarters of the Thunderaxe clan, wild dwarves running a profitable business in the mountain ranges of Chult. Their treasure vault was stored safely here, a gathering of untold riches, with a powerful artifact called the Myststone as the cherry on top. Rumored to be a fragment of the dead goddess of magic, Mystryl, the Myststone had the power to imbue mundane items with magic, and is said to have been the superior prototype to the mythallar constructs and the Spellforge in Phandelver. These priceless treasures were hidden away in a secret section of Rune's Hollow, protected by vicious guardians to ensure the clan's treasures remain safe. During the events of the Spellplague, massive earthquakes caused Rune's Hollow to cave-in, and blue flame flared up deep within the mountain, incinerating nearly all the inhabitants. The survivors fled for their lives. Hundreds of years later, when the calamities of the Spellplague finally settled down, kobolds now inhabit the ruins of Rune's Hollow. However, the treasure vault -- and its guardians -- remain hidden and intact. I'm looking to build a sweet encounter for four characters of 4th level. I need some guardian(s) that will protect an ancient dwarven treasure vault. The dwarves would've spared no expense to keep their treasure safe. Any suggestions for what could be suitable guardian(s) would be greatly appreciated as my brain is currently running blank! [/QUOTE]
