[DM Nephilim]

Felt left out that I didn't have an events thread yet. Will update with rules and such soon.

[DM Nephilim]

Battle of the Hills.

Several adventurers in the foot hills around the Cloud Peaks where hunting giants, and making such a ruckus that it woke up some nearby neighbors who decided to take a peek at what was going on.

The battle was joined by a small pack of Winter Wolves, which the adventures managed to defeat, and as word spread more adventurers showed up...creating more noise....drawing the attention of a small flight of white dragons passing by.

With some difficulty the adventurers managed to dispatch the dragons as wells as keep the raging hill giants at bay. Sadly though, the hands of fate seem to step in as the cocky adventures boasted amongst each other about how they could defeat anything.

Unfortunately, anything didn't seem to include the group of Frost Giant Mystics that traveled down from the keep to see what was going on in the foot hills.

The Adventurers finally defeated the Frost Giants, but not without paying a high price in blood and bodies....the Hill Giants put one final push to rid themselves of the meddlesome intruders...many did retreat, but some stayed behind and continued to harass the giants.

XP Rewards:

Just XP from Kills. - Impromptu event.

Soul Reaver Part 1


A paladin of Jergal and another disciple of the same where making their way through the Crypt in the fields of the dead, killing the undead present there. Upon their second trip though to make sure they had not missed anything, they started to encounter more and more undead of various types not normally seen.

As they journeyed deeper and deeper into the Crypt, the resistance increased, until a vision of Myrkul himself did appear for a moment, saying nothing doing nothing..and then vanishing without word or reason.

The two ventured out of the crypt, were just before the exit the encounter an army of undead clerics. They battled their way through the masses and emerged from the Crypt, beaten and battered but alive.

As they spoke to each other, an entity emerged from the Crypt....and spoke with them. Warning them to not enter the crypt any more, nor to kill the undead there as they are guardians of the crypt to prevent looters, such as the two in front of him. The Paladin refused to comply and attacked, quickly dispatching the creature.

Please with themselves, the two adventurers prepared to depart, as the creature suddenly reformed in front of them and attacked..... Looking at the two adventurers the creature spoke, warning them not to continue to fight as it was a minor thing for him to reform after his material form was destroyed. The two moved back, and began to teleport away, the creature attacked trying to prevent the teleport without success, only landing on hit on the caster, but not breaking his concentration.

The two adventurers arrive at the Friendly Arm Inn, and start making their way to the Inn, when they are approached by a small boy. When asking the boy if he was lost, or needed help the boy whispers to them....."Do you think you could escape me so easily? I will be watching you both....I will find you, and make you pay for any more transgressions. And if that does not work, I will make the people of the land pay for your attacks. This is your first, last and only warning."

With that the child walks off ((Server Reset))

Soul Reaver Part 2

A group of adventurers entered the Crypt in Amn with the intentions of cleansing the grounds of the undead within. This would not be their day...from the moment they entered the began to encounter stronger and stronger resistance from the undead that dwelled within.

Then a small boy appeared to them and smiled at one, recognizing him from the Fields of the dead. The boy spoke "You have been warned not to disturb the undead of the land Jergalite and yet you defy my wishes again. I shall summon a few friends to keep you busy....."

The rest of the group looks confused but were soon engaged in battle as two ancient liches appeared and began attacking the group. One of their numbers fell, but the adventurers managed to overcome the summoned creatures, but not without cost. The adventurers were tired, beaten and worn. Spells were depleted. The boy stepped out again and smiled.

"That was fun, shall we do it again? But to be honest, you are starting to bore me, and with the state you are in, you pose no further threat to those who are here.....I shall let you leave....this time. But if you do not stop with the attacks....there will be consequences."

Soul Reaver Part 3

A small band of adventurers were doing their best to cleanse the graveyard of the undead that plague the area. While in the middle of their efforts, a small boy approaches them, cautioning them not to continue on their current path, as it could be bad for them.

At first the group seemed more concerned with the fact that the small boy was in the graveyard unattended and unprotected. But after the child called forth denizens of graveyard to attack the party, they though differently. One decided to head the childs warning while the others chose to ignore him, or even attack him.....it did not end well for the valiant group. They fought to the end, not swaying from their beliefs or principles.

When the group awoke they were beaten, cut up, severely worn out and lacking supplies to continue their current mission. Once again the child and accomplished his mission to prevent the undead from being destroyed. While the adventurers remember little of what happened, the memory of the boy's warning rings clear in their heads.

The Collector

A caravan carrying several cages of large cats and bears wrecked in the trade way south of the Friendly Arm inn and the animals escaped into the surrounding area. A few came upon people outside the inn and set upon them. Once subdued, the adventurers noticed that they animals, while healthy, looked like they had not eaten in along time.

A smaller group followed the tracks back to their origin and found the wrecked wagons, and more of the large cats, which had to be put down as they attacked out of instinct and hunger. The area was investigated and many more tracks were discovered heading off in several directions.

So far, no one knows why these animals were being transported, where they came from or where they are heading....or what damage they might cause on the local flora and fauna.

A Camp in Triel

Several people were observed moving about Triel, speaking with Orcs setting up a camp in the ruins of the old town. The undead seem to have no interest in the Orcs, and leave them be. The group can be seen speaking with what appeared to be the Chief of the assembled Orcs, with some heated discussions happening until someone stepped up as the leader of the group.

The group departed, apparently satisfied in the exchange with the Orcs.

Rewards - XP and Gold
