Adventure Idea: The Night the Moon Came

by Sean Meaney

Tsu Zhang, an Astronomer from the Island of Ochalea, could only watch from distant Ylaruam as his people perished while Ylaruam survived simply because most of the infected perished in the heat of a desert crossing. While the plague didnt reach Ylaruam, blame for the plague directed at Ochaleans did reach the city of Ylaruam. Until even Tsu Zhang was greeted openly with hostility in the streets and market places.

His heart broken, something dark began to fester there. A hatred for those Ylari around him. They should share his pain. So he sets about a plan. This night he will use his Artefact of the immortals- the Mirror-lens of Zhang-Chi to bring destruction from his Astronomer's tower down on the people of this decadent city of silk and perfume.

It is the end of Kladmont, the last day in the last month of the year AC1021. And for PCs in Ylaruam, it is the night the Moon becomes abnormally bright, and reaches down into the slumbering city with its tentacles.

Any thoughts?
