So I've been running this Pathfinder Adventure, and we just reached the threshold point of the game (meaning new players are able to join in without being completely confused).
Story
The group of adventures finds themselves in a cave, the entrance covered in boulders, and ahead of them a strange path leading through the rock. To what? They will only know through...ADVENTURE.Originally employed to get rid of the 'wolves' living in the area by the local Baron, the adventurers have found themselves trapped in the cave they thought these 'wolves' might be living in. Accompanied by the rumors they heard of warlocks, witches, and zombies, this is probably not the best place to be, but alas, its what your stuck with. Now you must find your way out, and try to finish that nice job the Baron wanted you to do...or maybe you'll find something -better- in the deep dark caves...
The party tracked through The Caves, meeting an elderly chap named Do'en No'tter who apparently was in control of this cave and wanted the party of adventurers to find their way out (if possible) or die trying in some gruesome way. They eventually got through the cave, heading downward to Do'en's inner-sanctum where they met the long dead King Val'mar who Do'en was keeping alive. Val'mar employed them to kill Do'en, and he would help them get out. As they continued, they met Baldur, the conqueror of the lord-werewolf they met earlier. He, with his band of warriors, had the adventurers solve the door puzzle into the Inner Sanctum where they fought several demons before Baldur and his men were obliterated, and the party transported into Do'en's Dungeon.
They met an old man who needed two things in the Dungeon, leading them to kill its Warden, and pet spider. The old man opened a way out for them, where they met the Saint Yeba Obelk, one of the most renowned historical figure who is buried in these Tombs. He tells of how his spirit was awoken by a great darkness, and that he needs the parties help to bring him back. Otherwise, he can't help them defeat the Lich King Kro'mar, now known as Do'en Notter.
The party tracks through the Vampire Cove Tomb, eventually getting to the tomb of a Vampire King whom the Fire Demon Ragnaros helps them defeat, allowing the party to retrieve the heart that -also- enabled them to revive the Saint's body.
After reviving the Saint, he sent them back in time 2466 years to Yer'haal so that they could kill Kro'mar before he ever became a lich-king. This back-fired, and they were captured by a young, and powerful King Val'mar who needs their help in defeating a coven of Plague Demons with his Supreme Battle Mage Kro'mar, who also now owns them as his slaves.
THIS IS WHERE YOU ARE~~~~
The Tomb takes place on the world of
Aerlas'nThe current year is A.N.E. (After New Empire) 760.
B.N.E(Before New Empire) is the age before the Chormodian Empire rose to power, and gained control of most of the known lands. It currently rules its Empire with the Til'ar Kingdom to the South, the Rhu'neas people to the East, and the Northern Lands to the North(obviously). The Tomb is allocated in South-Western Chormordia(Chormordian Empire). It was the location of the long abandoned 'Yer'haal' ruins, a large city in the long dead civilization of Athmoria, a civilization that was thought to have been destroyed 1500 years ago. It is also the location of the burial of several Saints and Sorcerers of old.
The races have begun to live together in cities, instead of being separated by Racial-Kingdoms which were basically destroyed at the end of B.N.E.. This is primarily shown in the current Emperor of Chormordia, Malin, the Dwarf.
Currently, the general idea is that the world is flat, and there is no other side.
There are 9 months in the The Tomb world, 40 days each; 360 days in total:
Early Morn
Seed
Late Seed
Mid-Time
Sun's Tinge
Late Sun
Early Sleep
Jural
End-Jural
Jural is a time of the year celebrating the passing of the year, and the hopes of a wonderful next year. It lasts for two months, and is full of festivities around the known-lands.
