Darker Omen (THW Campaign)

[Montiboy]

The day grew darker and the night brighter. The comet of the world breaker was here.
The great sign was here, as it had been said in the old chronicle….


It was said that in the beast from out-world would come and in the darkness breed. It will lay eggs that will stay still until man's folly opens it.

It was said that a hero would come and save the world (even though there are dispute if it is a man or a woman, there is also the cult of the holy mice but it is not taken seriously and anyway its cultists were explained with forceful conviction it was not to be idolatred.)

Then…..

There was no more. The sun in the night was gone, the darkness in the day was gone.
And life kept going, and with it, death, violence and power.
Until one day in the Bleeped text .. shiny city of Montiberg…
The sect of the great beast knew it was the time. And they started searching for their master

[Montiboy]

In the past few days, many people have disappeared during the night. Stories of untold monsters and gruesome murders unsettled the local population. Concerned citizens gathered to Town hall to ask for the authorities to react. It was believe another necromancer or ratmen clan took residency in the underground. After the night watch agreed to step up its patrols, the Bailiff issued a reward for any undeads or ratmen heads people will bring.
Looking for quick reward, Red Baron and Chief Blue each sent a group in the underworld to bring back some bounties.
