Round 20

King Against King

October 19, 2024

The Party

  • Akram (Elf Rogue) – Mark
  • Nihl (Dragonborn Monk) – Kasey
  • Rosetta Stone (Human Cleric) – Sarah
  • Wyll Wadine (Human Wizard) – Martin

After two days flying by magic carpet, the party arrived at Mogretza and landed right at the gates of the palace. With the Crown of Kings on his head, Nihl was instantly recognized by loyal subjects as their rightful ruler and the guards were quick to execute his orders against the clerics who were more loyal to the church than the crown.

With daylight still on their side, the adventurers sought out King Virigoth in his underground tomb which was to be found in a secret chamber in the castle dungeons. In those same dungeons, Wyll was reunited with his father who had been imprisoned by the Inquisition six months before. Together, the four heroes battled the Vampire King and his court of undead and emerged victorious.

King Nihl versus King Virigoth

And so, the realm was finally united under King Nihl, first Dragonborn King of Alamayne. In his first decrees, he made Akram his emissary to Elfland, lifted the ban on wizardry and made Wyll his Court Magician, while Rosetta would be sent forth to overturn the Church of Deem and establish the Cult of the Dragon as the nation’s official religion.

There were problems ahead, however. The Orc War was raging in the south and he had pledged the wealth of the kingdom to an Efreet and a Red Dragon, two entities whose appetites were irreconcilable and would need to be fed soon enough. Yet, casting a shadow over everything, was the Lich Bahrentoht who had put the Vampire King on the throne in the first place.

But those are stories for another campaign….
