The Storm’s Veil

Description

Adventure Summary

Level Range: 5–7 | Party Size: 4–5 players

Background

Deep within the Veilwood, an ancient forest, lies the ruins of a forgotten temple dedicated to a long-dead god of storms. The temple, once a sanctuary, has been overtaken by luminous fungi that glow with an eerie bioluminescence. For three weeks, an unnatural storm has raged, twisting the forest into a tempest of wind and lightning. Locals whisper that the storm is a prison, but its true nature is obscured by fear and superstition.

The Hook

A village at the forest’s edge has been destroyed by the storm, leaving only a single survivor: a scholar who speaks of a “dragon’s wrath” and a cult that seeks to awaken the storm’s power. The party is hired by a desperate noble to investigate the storm’s source, unaware that the cult’s leader is not the villain—they are the last guardian of a primordial force.
