[QUOTE="Haltherrion, post: 5485451, member: 18253"] I once had a road called "The Century Road." It was a finely surfaced road with deep road cuts and remarkably straight segments. Legend had it that at certain times, a ghostly work gang could be seen laboring on the road. It's been a long time and I don't remember the exact details but there was a situation where the players could meet what looked like a runaway slave. If they aided the slave in a certain way, one of the players became a slave on the road gang cursed to work the road for 100 years. It turns out that a king had once needed the road built in a short period of time to win a war. He had contracted with a dark agency to get it created. It was built in a fortnight but by magic that caused the necessary work to be done in the future. An ensorcelled road gang would build the road for all time with each member of the gang to be a mortal cursed to work on the gang for 100 years. When your 100 years were up, you had to find a replacement or serve another 100 years. [/QUOTE]
