Recently i have finalized what i want to run for my players in a homebrew world/campaign. Which is probably good as we are set to play shortly (next week or so).
To start though, here is the
Ammon Yurgal was one such hopeful, having come to Shores End after his mining company was lost deep within the mountains of his homeland. He traveled to Shores End with a small group of fellow workers seeking new challenges and a fresh start in the hills surrounding Shores End, said to be fresh with new lodes of precious minerals.
He found more than he bargained for in the hills and mountains surrounding Shores End. His team managed to open a new crystal mine deep within Sappers Run, and it proved profitable for some time, his mines name becoming the chatter of the town, until one fateful day.
While digging a new shaft for the mine, his team broke into an ancient temple deep within the earth and discovered a trove of ancient relics. As the miners explored the temple, many of them died from traps and guardians. Ammon’s greed drove him further, a strange whisper in his ears as he delved deeper into the temples sub-levels.
He drove into the heart of the temple, and what he found drove him mad. In the temple he found one of the remnants of the Nagual, an ancient priest, long held in suspended animation. The lizard priest corrupted and tortured his mind, learning all it could about the surface world. Once it discovered what it could, it sent him back out, as a spy, and began its quest to subvert the town of Shored End. The lizard priest, Sirath, called to the local kobold tribes and invited them into its lair, and slowly began converting the remaining dwarves and humans into undead. Siraths kobolds chased Ammon back into Shores End where he was found by the town guard. In town he began babbling nearly incoherently, going on about strange gardens and primordial entities. The local guard thought he simple went mad, until no one from the mining teams could be found.
Days after Ammons return people began to go missing from Shores End, kidnapped by Siraths kobold and undead minions. Strange sights in the night have become regular to the people of Shores End. The town guard and the guild council have begun trying to hire adventurers to investigate “Ammons Delve”, as the locals have begun calling it, hoping someone can discover what evil has befallen the mine and their town.
I am currently working on the adventure summary as well as getting the rest of the adventure set up.
Let me know what you think, comments, suggestions, ideas, or anything else really. It all helps to create a wonderful adventure for my friends and family.
