VikingIrishman's Hell's Vengeance (Inactive)

Game Master VikingIrishman

The Hell’s Vengeance Adventure Path begins when the Hellknight Order of the Godclaw reveals that its members have found Heart’s Edge, the legendary sword once wielded by the goddess Iomedae. A group of Iomedaean knights calling themselves the Glorious Reclamation, upset that a Hellknight order held an important relic of their faith, raided the Hellknights’ fortress, Citadel Dinyar, and reclaimed the divine weapon. And rather than stopping there, they set their sights on overthrowing the diabolical Thrice-Damned House of Thrune! It is your job to stop them.

NPCs:

Cimri Staelish
For Cimri Staelish, Longacre is a prison. She could simply leave, taking a barge down the Whisper River to Remesiana and starting a new life, but the fetters of time and uncertainty weigh heavily upon her. She’s not about to run off into an ambiguous future. She needs gold and promising prospects, lest she find herself fleeing headlong into some blind alley. Yet promises like those are in short supply in Longacre. Although Cimri’s ambition alone might not be enough to help her escape her childhood home, if it’s teamed with that of other ruthless souls, maybe she can find a way.

Locations:

Louislik Tannery
One of the most respected businesses in Longacre, the Louslik Tannery has a reputation for sturdy leather and for treating fairly with local craftsmen. Because of the smelly processes involved in the operation, the tannery sits a mile west of Longacre.

The Ash House
Before the Chelish Civil War, the Ash House was Moragatalli Manor, home to one of old Cheliax’s lesser noble families. In the decades following the rise of House Thrune, numerous supporters of the old order lost their lands, their titles, and—in many cases—their lives.

The Moragatallis tried to remain neutral during the revolution and, upon surviving it, congratulated themselves on their quiet canniness. But House Thrune proved equally quiet and patient with their accounting of their allies, enemies, and milksop bystanders, and decades later, Thrune gave the Moragatalli lands to House Fex, which had risen in Thrune’s esteem. The Moragatallis would have complained, of course, had most members of the family not died in their manor’s violent, midnight conflagration. No one doubted what had happened, but the town children’s explanations—blaming witches and ghosts—proved far less frightening than the truth. In the 60 years since, Moragatalli Manor has been known as the Ash House.

The Ash House still stands just outside the town to the northwest. The dilapidated structure is a dangerous site most Longacre citizens avoid. Most of the Moragatallis’ wealth burned along with their manor, while looters carried off what little survived soon after the fire.
