Equinox

Level: 7
Introduction: There are fleeting places in this world, places that are no more lasting than a shadow.
Legend holds that the most fleeting among those eldritch places is a building that exists
for only 12 hours on two days of the year: the spring and fall equinoxes. Reports about
what the building contains vary greatly: Some say it’s a monastery; others, a library; still
others are convinced it’s a temple. But all these different reports agree on one item: On
the equinox, the building appears on a high hill when the first rays of dawn strike the tip of
a tall white tower (twin to a black tower opposite it), and it disappears the same day at
sunset when the last light leaves the twin black tower.

Dry Spell

Level: 3
Introduction: The bugbear known as Relgore Himtooth is the leader
of a band of humanoid thugs that preys on travelers and
raids small farmsteads, stealing the valuables within
and occasionally murdering the occupants. The locals
have long sought a solution to this problem, but they
have found none so far. They lack the funds necessary
to draw qualified adventurers to the region, and the
problem is not severe enough for the lords who rule
this area to dedicate a superior force to its defense.2
About two months ago, Relgore and his band
attacked a coach that was traveling through the coun-
tryside, easily overwhelming the driver and passen-
ger—a noble named Nerius Bootlum. At the time of the
attack, Nerius was on his way to consult with a sage
named Elwin, who resides in a town some distance
away, about a curious magic item called the eversoaking
sponge. Leaving the two humans for dead, Relgore took
everything he found in the coach, including the ever-
soaking sponge and a small fortune in gems that Nerius
had with him, and fled to a nearby cave that his
company uses as a hideout.
The coach driver was indeed dead, but Nerius
Bootlum had actually survived the attack. When he
regained consciousness, he slowly and painfully made
his way to a nearby Temple of Heironeous, where he
received magical curing. Angered by the unprovoked
attack, Nerius arranged to have a squad of militia
dispatched to the area where his carriage had been
waylaid. The militia tracked down Relgore’s band, and
the ensuing battle took a heavy toll on the raiders, reduc-
ing the band to about half its former size. The survivors,
including Relgore, managed to escape and lie low long
enough for their pursuers to claim a successful mission
and return to their posts within the city. Nerius, know-
ing full well that the threat to the region had not truly
been eliminated because no proof of Relgore’s death had
surfaced, placed a price of 2,000 gp on the bugbear
leader’s head, in hopes that a bounty hunter or adven-
turer would be motivated to seek him out and slay him.
Since then, Relgore has reassembled the scattered
remnants of his band, but it is far too small to use as an
instrument of vengeance against the militia and its
leader. Recently, however, the opportunity for some
malicious mischief presented itself, and Relgore seized
his chance to act. The weather has been unusually dry
this summer, and the wells in the nearby settlements
have dried up, forcing the natives to either rely on
water they have stored or bring in water from the
nearby lakes. Relgore realized that the eversoaking sponge
could soak up immense quantities of water, and that he
could reuse it after it had reached capacity simply by
squeezing a small amount of water from it. So he
decided to take his revenge against the humans by
draining the lakes that sustained them in times of
drought. Over the course of a week, Relgore eliminated
the water from three lakes in the area, reducing them to
nothing more than dry mud beds. The few local clerics
began channeling most of their magic into create food
and water spells in an effort to keep the populace from
dying of thirst.
A few days ago, new of this situation reached Nerius
Bootlum, who quickly made the connection between
dry lakes and his stolen eversoaking sponge. To date, he
has posted several public notices requesting assistance
with this problem.

Publisher: WOTC
Level: 13
Introduction: About 300 years ago, the desmodus (des-MOH-doos), a race of amicable humanoids who resemble monstrous bats, were locked in a genocidal war with the drow. Growing tired of the fight, the desmodus decided to play dead. Desmodu sages determined that they could
seal off their realm and simultaneously destroy the nearest drow city by rerouting a magma flow. The bold plan worked. The world thought the desmodus were extinct, killed in a final, desperate battle with the drow. Only a small colony of salamanders that traded with the desmodus for metal ores remained in contact with the hidden desmodus. And to protect their metal supply, the salamanders weren’t telling anyone. But an earthquake three months ago reopened the realm of the desmodus and sent the redirected magma flowing to the surface, causing the salamanders’ abode to cool off noticeably. This has caused great consternation among the desmodus, who have fallen into a bitter debate about the best course of action. This, in turn, has caused metal shipments to the salamanders to taper off, further enraging them. In the meantime, beholders discovered the remains of the drow city and have set about excavating for treasure. The salamanders and the beholders have agreed to wipe out the desmodus once the beholders have finished their work in the city.

Level: 8-9
Introduction: Over three hundred years ago, the wise and beautiful Queen Simura lost her only love to a horrid disease. In a desperate attempt to restore life to her beloved Gallanos, the Queen turned to necromancy, and became seduced by the evil power of a mystical tome; the Darklight Codex. Constructing a gigantic maze beneath her palace, the Queen began to gather followers, as the dead throughout the land began to rise. Suddenly, a fanatical group of warrior-priests attacked the palace, and succeeded in sealing the Queen and her followers within their own stronghold. As time passed, the city crumbled, and to most people the story of the Queen is now only a legend. Now terror grips the land – children are being kidnapped, plague is spreading, and the dead are rising again. And deep beneath the palace ruins, in the heart of the maze, the Queen begins to awaken from her long sleep, her power even greater than before.
