OP25 The Golem Factory
🕑 Added 2022-03-20 01:08:15 +0000 UTCDenizens of the Tower! Here's an awesome one-page dungeon. It's a self-contained adventure where everything you need fits a single page. I make them system neutral so they can be easily ported to any system. It shouldn't be much trouble to include it in any medieval setting.
Binding rituals are an evil form of magic that traps a soul inside a body or object. The soul is used as a magical battery; a form of energy that slowly but surely is consumed. Subjects of this incantation are stripped from their power. They are nothing but a medium of energy. Some binding masters use elemental entities in this way and bind them to constructs. The worst of them bind people’s souls to magical constructs.
An evil mage who goes by the name of Lord Artghast has perfected the art of stripping a living person of their soul and embedding it into the inanimate body of a carefully prepared golem. Lord Artghast has built a factory of sorts under his manor for this purpose. So far, over a dozen poor townsfolk have gone missing. The wicked mage lures them into his lair with charms and deceits. Then he traps them in the depths of his golem factory for future use in his sinister arcane activities. The locals offer a hefty reward to adventurers to retrieve their captured loved ones. There must be a way to save them all from the evil mage.
The document is included in both PDF and JPEG format for ease of use. Thanks for your support, until the next one, Elven Tower.
