In ages past, the Emperor of Folan commissioned the creation of a beautiful jewel piece to celebrate the twentieth year of his rule. The most famous jewelers of the land came together to work on this masterpiece, each wanting to be the one to earn the favor of the Emperor. They all toiled for two months, each coming up with their magnum opus to present to the Emperor. On the day before the anniversary, they all presented their work.
The Emperor hated them all, and sent them away.
Most believe that Galki, the demon trickster, had influenced him to reject their work, for an unknown crafter’s work was selected later that day, and was presented at the celebration. From that day forward, the rule of the Emperor became more twisted and evil. Eventually, the nobles of the land rose up and overthrew him, slaying the Emperor. A demon hunter, convinced of the evil of the Emperor’s Jewel, wished to destroy the gem, thinking it was used to twist his mind... but it could not be found.
The Emperor’s Jewel became a fable- a legend of a powerful treasure with the ability to control the minds of others. There have been recent rumors of it resting at the bottom of a cavern system. You adventurers came together to track down the Jewel and destroy it.
After two days of exploration, an open cavern with a pedestal at the bottom. There is a setting at the bottom where it must rest... but the jewel is not there! There is only a scroll, with this message:
“I have taken the Jewel, and hidden it! Some member or members of your group might know something- ask them! Ha ha!”
It is signed with a demonic rune.
As you read the scroll, a strange urge strikes you. Clearly, the best way to find the Jewel is to vote one member of the party to die each day until you figure out exactly what has happened! Hopefully, nothing will happen in the night to influence this...
Can you destroy the Emperor’s Jewel before its evil power consumes you all?
Day 1 has begun!
Day 1 will last until Tuesday 8/30 at 11 PM EST.
