D&D (I am The GM)

5th Session

The stronghold is approached by a paladin and two clerics. They say they come on behalf of the pope and ask for Jack Smith. They command him to give them the evil armour and sword of Roth The Hateful as using it is a unholy practice. But in return or his great deeds across the land they tell him that he can become a high paladin if he proves himself. They tell him that a vital road is being attacked by undead. They suspect it is coming from a burial mound in a nearby swamp. They must clear it out under the watchful eyes of a young cleric, Sister Luna. She has shiny chain-mail and the symbol of St Ygg on her tabard. The party (Jack, John, Kevin, Murkas, Gorpo!, Feraan and Naetin) make their way to the mound and are attacked by three giant scorpions. Kevin tames one of them and the rest are killed off. They enter the mound and fight off 4 ghouls. Feraan and Murkas become paralysed. They defeat the ghouls and search the mound, finding The Spear of Herne, the crown and amulet of an ancient king. In addition they find 20 silver rings and 6 silver broaches, as well as many coins. They discover this was a burial mound of Herne during the time of the war between Herne, Silvanus and other old gods as well as a human Saint Ygg against the alliance Orcus and Set. They leave the mound and Jack is rewarded with new armour, sword and a golden holy symbol. Murkas' wealth grows even more as he take all the treasure except rings, broaches and coins (which go to Naetin and Feraan).
