Someone or some group is serial killing NPCs important to the party, causing a lot of devastation in the process. In conversations with some of the surviving NPCs of interest, the PCs begin to find that things are not as simple as they may have appeared. Tentative connections are formed with potential allies, enemies, and one or more NPCs who may be both! PCs who might have preferred to maintain a low profile are now in the spotlight as local heroes after participating in rescue efforts in the massacre at Waelvur's Wagonworks. Nearly losing the monk in an ambush while investigating a local tomb, the party has captured an unconscious half-ogre for interrogation. Will they obtain information from him before impulsively killing him? (Probably not.) Will the monk rush headlong into combat without backup? (Probably not twice in a row.) Will Viktor set someone on fire for stealing his stuff? (I can't wait!) What will happen when the fighter breaks bad? (Oh yeah, we got a tiny glimpse of that already.)
