<p>The plot of the module concerns the PCs exploring the dungeons and grounds of Maure Castle, delving into the mysteries of the enigmatic Maure family, a clan of powerful and insane sorcerors, who used the dungeons underneath their stronghold as a magical laboratory and playground. There are darker motivations, such as the highest levels of the family worshipping a powerful extraplanar patron known only as "Y", as well as an eight-pointed star that could hold the key to any number of mysteries, with each point, once a special magical artifact has been place in it, leading to a pocket dimension.</p>concerro wrote:I just noticed Maure Castle on the boards.
