The Zlatorog chronicles: Dust in the Wind
Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot
About the adventure
"It's very unusual, to hear reports of Wild Griffins hunting as a pack. It's a well known fact that they're solitary creatures, and to think their flock is made of 6 to 12 fully matured adults is a chilling sentiment. And the massacres that all happened on the same day, and the evidence found on all sites paints a unsavoury picture. Two local farmers and their stock, a tradesman from Waterdeep and a small dispatcher unit of the Queen's army.. Together totaling 14 dead..7 bodies missing, the rest dismembered in a way only a wild beast could manage, or a couple of them, to be precise. They also killed the animals, 12 horses and some livestock, however they were not picked apart for supper.. can't say the same for the human victims. This latter part of the report is also an anomaly, Griffins love horse meat. So how can we be certain this was the work of Griffins? There's no mistaking the feathers, long as an arm, found on all three crime scenes. And claw marks, deeper than a veteran's axe could cut." You are employees of the agency Zlatorog, tasked with hunting down cults & creatures of evil across Faerun. This mission will require you to track the flock, investigate the phenomenon of what brought these apex predators to form a unit and report back. By no circumstance should you engage with the flock. Combat is not an option, even a single mature Wild Griffin is a substantial threat in an open field.
