Tales spin from tavern to tavern, leaked from crimson lipped and silver tongued bards, tales that speak of an undeathly presence, a curse that will pull the hairs on your arms and legs to attention, a tale of fiends, of shambling shadows, of howling victims and dark eyes, staring through barred windows in longing.
Blackrock Isle sits but a few miles off shore of the northern coast of Nherazkar, an island of dread that cut with an icy chill to the bone; only the strongest of man can survive here, though all who have commited a certain crime are sent with naught but a dagger to test their luck. Should they survive the shunt into icy waters, this would be the homeland of those who commit treason, murder and mutilation, without the state of Nherazkar's permission.
Of late strange sounds and imagery of smoke has been seen towering above the island; something against the placid norm of an island once thought to be dead and lifeless. A cry bellows throughout the land for heros brave, wise and fierce. Ye all who are brave shall rally, bringeth thine flag and thine sword, thine shield and thine guts, to the docklands of the frozen north, political immunity is granted to those with an adventuring licence, who have spat on our grounds before, so long as they be brave enough to tread the Blackrock Isle, and solve the mysterious deeds behind these strange happenings.
Those who survive shall be granted a gift worthy of kings, those who do not, will be forever missed. Dare you enter the nightmare?_____________________________________________
