A cheerful crew ferries our heroes to the dock at the foot of Cascadia Falls. The temple, they say, is just up at the top...up all of those stairs. After checking in with another friendly fellow at the docks, it's onward, to the top!
Beautiful statues have been meticulously carved from stone clearly not of this region. The sound of the waterfalls drones on and almost fades into the background, despite their thunderous roar. As our heroes continue to ascend, something starts to feel...off.

An extra special thank you to our awesome Ancient Dragons for going above & beyond!

Cascadia Falls has been a must-see natural formation for as long as anyone can remember. Similarly, the temple has also been around generations upon generations. Many a traveler have been known to make pilgrimages to this spot. Some say the view alone was worth any price.
Despite being such a well known landmark and temple, anyone describing it always does so in a vague way and with a cheery demeanor. "Oh it was just magnificent, you simply have to see it for yourself" or "My time there was deeply personal and something I reflect on often. You really owe it to yourself to visit!" may be among many similar replies when discussing this area with any who have previously visited.
Here are some adventure ideas for our heroes!
- Coven's Cathedral: The temple has been taken over by a coven of hags and their minions for quite some time now. Now that they've grown comfortable, they've begun to use the the tourists that they don't kill in order to spread the word. More and more people seem to arrive each day, rapidly expanding the sister's reach around the region. Whether fooled or on the hunt, our heroes must find a way to deal with the hags, or at least escape with their lives!
- Rivers & Vampires: Regardless of what our heroes may have heard, these vampires have no trouble crossing rivers to sate their appetite. This well established den of vampires uses their thralls to collect more innocents to devour, and occasionally turn. Their leader rarely, if ever, leaves the temple atop the cliffs. Similarly, no one who enters ever seems to come back out...
- A Rare Kindness: Having just returned from a rather stressful and draining adventure, our heroes chance upon a crew heading to Cascadia Falls. Hitching a ride, they all soon arrive to the beautiful sight of cascading waterfalls casting rainbows high into the air. A light mist is always hanging in the air. The temple here is managed by genuinely kind and caring members of the clergy. The reason so many can't seem to recall much is because these clerics also happen to be master masseurs.
- Mind Your Manners: All seems as normal as one could expect as our heroes take in the sights and ascend the stairs. Everyone they meet is extremely polite, if not seemingly distracted and in a hurry. Anyone who acts too rudely or brutish however, may find themselves groggily waking up in the temple some time later, as a maw of Illithid tentacles descends upon their face...
