Relics of Gods

Forgotten over the passage of time, Malar, the God of the Hunt, and Talona, the Goddess of Disease and Poison, held an uneasy treaty, to combine their powers together to increase their influence on Faerûn.  Their highest priests created cursed amulets to spread the evil interests of their dark deities, in honour of this alliance.  Brutal competition between the evil sects, however, eventually led to the failure of the alliance and loss of the artifacts.

For centuries then, the dangers lay dormant. Now, there appear to be two unconnected threats in the foothills of the Cloud Peaks Mountains.  In Quillford, there have been strange animal attacks. Seemingly unrelated, there are unexplained areas of poison and disease near the village of Skiepdjip.  The trees are turning dark and withering; their leaves covered with a smelly dark slime, as they fail.  Farmers’ fields and livestock are suffering the same fate, and the farmers are growing fearful.  

If this evil is not stopped, the region will descend into chaos.  Willing heroes are needed urgently to solve the mystery of the animal attacks, and start to learn the dark background behind those, as well as the unexplained pestilence.  Attempting to remove this threat will lead them through the Cloud Peaks Mountains, along the Sword Coast, and across the sea to the Moonshae Isles.

This adventure will take characters from level one through to level 8 (Tier I and II), and includes several new monsters, original artwork, as well as many new maps, for new challenges.   There are also several fully detailed side quests.  Although the adventure is designed to be run as a full campaign, there are detailed modifications included so that it can be run as separate, independent, partial quests that can be used to enhance any other campaign or adventure.
