The players were evil and servants of some demonic like creature. Good was on the run and nearly beaten but as good always does - they rallied. The players investigated the source of the rally suspecting a new leader had rose to replace the ones they had killed....  What they found was the legend of the Sleigher (note they heard Slayer). Supposedly this Sleigher was of near demigod status and could only manifest during one day of every year in the heart of winter when the light of everything that was good was at its dimmest. He bolstered the forces of good - arming them, healing them, etc...So, they decide that they have to whack the guy. The first encounter occurs near the gate that would take the party to the place where he dwelt - a place that never knew darkness. Legend held that all sunswords were forged in this land. They fight a young warrior (ax, red leather pants, black boots) and his odd minotaur companions. The young guy is butch but the minotaur like creatures have some wicked grendade like weapons. These fragile multicolored globes gave off special effects (red = explosion, gold = hold person, silver =charm person). The minotaurs were a force to be reckoned with - one was a charging machine, one had some insane movement, one had some thunderclap powers. That first battle was a stalemate with both side withdrawing. After resting up a bit the party headed to the floating fortress where they faced the elves and the Sliegher himself.When I spilled the beans everyone groaned a bit but they still talk about the game 10 years later and how I had Santa beat them up and take their toys.</blockquote>
