Fortress Badabaskor -Challenge for Heroes - 8th lvl start

About the adventure

Sitting in the tavern, again, you take stock of your life so far - you have not fared well, despite years of experience the riches and wealth and fame have not happened. You don't even have a magic weapon! Such dark thoughts and a dwindling pile of coins on the table drive you to your feet. "Enough of this guarding, patrolling, killing beasts and men! Time for a real heroic quest that will make me famous!" The story so far.....An ancient area of Barbarian Altanis, containing two volcanoes – one active, one dormant. Eruptions over time have created a fertile land with large woods and forests. An ancient fortress on Mt Deception was built by the dwarves to protect against the evil creatures from the Elemental Plane of Fire, and the Planes of Hell, who found a portal in the volcano through which they could enter the prime material plane. Legends persist however of the dark past and strange mysteries that inflicted this land. The elves recorded tales of a Druid Grove and a Sacred Tree; dwarves tell of an ancient relic forged in the volcano and of a great battle that created a swamp filled with the ghosts of dead soldiers. Fey creatures once lived here but are now 'lost', and a source of ancient evil has drawn the Wild Hunt. "These are hero's quests! to right a wrong, punish the wicked, and protect the poor people of Horloch!" so saying you leave the pub with dignity! But will you really be good enough?
