A chill wind is blowing, like some great force gathering its breath. There are rumors going through the lands, talk of orcs and goblins stalking the woods at night. They say the men of the plains see lights on top of the old fortress, the Grim Spire, that cursed place abandoned so long ago. Whispers in the dark. Birdsong has left the air. Something is afoot.
One of the last remaining members of an order dedicated to the protection of the land has gathered a group of individuals to investigate this. People from all walks of life and different races have banded together, united in a common purpose. For their leader remembers the old tales and sees the warning signs that others have missed. Could it be that a terrible evil has returned? Or is there some other force driving these events, summoning dark servants out of hiding?
This unlikely band of heroes-to-be must journey far away from home, deep into the heart of darkness, to discover the truth and put an end to this menace before it can begin.
Simple enough premise. Heavily inspired by Tolkien, as you will no doubt have guessed. I'm looking for a small group to play a nice variety of characters (be it men, elves or dwarves) to go a-questin' with. I'm not going to flesh out the world a lot, though I will provide a little more information in the OOC. A lot will be left up to your imagination. Feel free to fill in the blanks.
Leave me a reply below if you're interested.
