The Pits of Magic
An overview of the threads related to The Pits of Magic and a small introduction.
Introduction:
The Pits of Magic Player Campaign revolves around chasing after an organisation known as The Scales, and preventing them from creating objects of great power that would tip the balance in the favor of either evil or good. It only makes sense that your character would join regardless of their alignment, as these people might craft weapons powerful enough to undo a God, if you believe the stories.
If you want to do research on anything related to this, send me a convo and I can reply accordingly.
Will be more relevant once people get a hold of items or books -> PM me if you have any loot you like more info on.
The Events:
[Finished] - The Pits of Magic - Act I
A recent earthquake has exposed an enormous sinkhole within the foul decaying lands of Nid Arach. Once, the lands were beautiful and full of bounty. These days saw the coming of carpenters, hunters, masons and miners. But the mines have since been abandoned and during the age of Darkness occupied for dark rituals. With the collapse of the ceiling, now it becomes clear just how big the scale is of these evil deeds. Rumors about cursed objects of power being taken from this pit to the far corners of this world. Has the light come in time to prevent this darkness its victory?
[Finished] The Pits of Magic - Act II
The first pit has been found and looted. Whatever clues the items, books, and sacrificial shapes hold is yet unknown, but surely the scholars of Altera will manage to find out some hidden knowledge within the terrible runes and symbols found in this first pit. With the existence of a cursed magical object proven, the existence of a magical anvil to forge such items doesn't seem so far fetched anymore. And the existence of an organization responsible for all this sounds more and more reasonable. The doubt is over, the chase has begun.
[Finished] The Pits of Magic - Act III
Arguments and discord within the ranks of the adventurers in the second pit have given cause to an unspoken split between the group. Those that seek knowledge, and those that have already made up their mind about The Scales. Áedán told of the impossibility to regard them as good and evil, for they are both and neither. But who is Áedán? Is he truly still aligned with Ignis, or has his time infiltrating The Scales changed the man?
May the third pit give answers to our questions!
[Finished] The Pits of Magic - Final Scene
The Cast Overseer mentioned a final warning "The Smith will take care of all of you". The pits became more sophisticated and dangerous with each step further into the scorching depths. What could we possibly expect for this final pit? What spawn of the Nether will come to best the brave heroes this time???
Backstory:
The Anvil of Despair and The Scales
A piece of parchment has made its way in the public domain and it does not bode well.
It tells of extremists who call themselves 'The Scales' and of the attempt to recreate an ancient legendary artifact.
A lesson about the Anvil Myth
A lesson was held in Frostwarts to attempt to find out more about the myth surrounding the Anvil of Despair.
The Clues
All the things people have found out through researching items or the site itself under my DM.
