The Castle of the Robber Knight and Other Fantastic Stories [ EDIT ]

For two days you have wandered, and now you have arrived at your destination. A grassy hill towers before you. On its crest rests a ruined fortress – the Castle of the Robber Knight. The warmth of the inn’s fire in the village seems distant now, but you all remember the old woman’s words. Long ago, a wicked robber knight named Rothgar Wolfsbane plagued this area, pillaging and plundering wherever he could. He fought against everyone – humans, dwarves, and elves – but it was the orcs who eventually brought about his downfall. An orc clan marched on Wolfsbane’s castle and stormed it. Many lives were lost that day, but in the end Wolfsbane fell and his castle was ravaged by flames. Brave fortune hunters have felt compelled to explore the robber knight’s castle in search of ancient treasures, but none have ever returned. Will you be the first?

This game will feature the introductory adventure, "The Castle of the Robber Knight." It is a short scenario, expected to take no more than a few months at most (though combat might slow it down). Pregenerated characters will be used to keep this short and sweet. If the party finds a good rapport, we will discuss continuing the game into the adventure series "Secret of the Dragon Emperor," which will greatly extend the length of the campaign.
