Pale stone comprises this defendable keep, situated at the top of a steep cliff. Situated at the border between two lands, after the abrupt death of its original inhabitants, the keep’s ownership defaulted back to the kingdom. After hasty repairs, it has since been repurposed as a tax station, and a place of safe rest for merchants who can afford the protection of the guards.
Or so they think…
Adventure Seeds
People have been going missing. When the guards see that your party are adventurers, they offer that, instead of paying taxes, they will pay you to solve the mystery. At first it was only the occasional merchant who disappeared, but now their own have begun to vanish, too. Here are some ideas:
Unbeknownst to many, the original inhabitants were worshippers of demented gods, and used the cave under their house as a place of sacrifice. When their dark ways were discovered, the King killed them all for treason; repurposing the house, and doing his best to clean it of its dark past. But it remains, in religious inscriptions in the walls of the hidden crypt, and books of family histories—hastily concealed within the sarcophagi of their ancestors. As testament to their existence, too, an undead horror has awakened within the hidden crypt; emerging to kill the strangers who trespass above, one by one...
The original inhabitants were cursed; each condemned to eventually become a heinous and twisted ghoul. Their insatiable craving for flesh grew and grew as each was drawn further away from their humanity, and they eventually begun eating other humanoid creatures. When the King found out, he slaughtered them all; purging the house of their history. But the families curse lingers there still; corrupting those who linger within its grasp too long.
The keep was carved out of a prehistoric cave system, from the bottom up; eventually resulting in the fortress above. What its founders didn’t know was that they were building over an ancient site of unspeakable horrors, which left the land stained with pain and suffering forever. Evil lurks here, and whispers to those who live within its reach the longest; eventually driving them into madness. Demonic abominations are drawn to the hidden crypt, sensing the darkness that hangs over the site—and luring the disturbed humanoids down, to their doom below; where they feast on their flesh…
