Hestia 0 Posted December 1, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Guardian of Fire Guardian protecting the fire king that resides within the cave trying to keep him rather than others out. There is the fire throne up on that mountain with that broken crown that is in the middle of that volcano. Steps of what i want to do Cerberus the fire guardian was keeping something locked within its cave that was like a natural prison system that prevented others from entering by keeping the heat levels by making them higher and higher as one would go deeper. With the creature that is now entrapped has been drained of its flames by the guardian of fire to keep it weaker. When Cerberus was defeated it couldn’t keep the creature down and thus it is able to slowly make his way out. The player(s) will go into the cave to find the natural heat/lava are now gone having been left with cool obsidian with only the innermost sanctum having the high levels of lava/heat with the guardian of the NPC being that of a powerful fire elemental like creature to challenge them to keep the man imprisoned. Part 2: when the NPC would be helped out of the cave they would thank the players profusely and give them an RP trinket that would be a obsidian necklace with a inlaid diamond center to the players as thanks. He would than go on his way out of the cave in the direction of the nearest town as if following NPC protocols. Days later news spread of the village in question being burned to the ground with witnesses saying that the creature was a creature that was beastial with a reptillian like skin appearence in a thin aura of flames wrecked through the town destroying it. The players can follow the tracks to the base of the mountain with the obsidian throne with no tracks showing upwards even though shute steps had lead them towards here. Part 3: After searching and players going up the mountain they will find the famed crown that had once been lying upon the obsidian statue has now disappeared along with the obsidian throne that had never been moved and most likely scalding hot beyond all measures due to it being in a volcano. Along with this the appearance of iron guardians, knights, and paladins have come along through the floor slowing expanding outward with no past events to explain such a thing. Players encounter or bypass the iron patrols. Part 4: players will go back towards the iron palace finding that it looks like the ruined structure has slowly gained iron like replacements for the parts that were collapsed. With their being heavy iron guards protecting the new king that has claimed the land with them being sentient enough to act like royal guard type NPCs comparable to normal NPCs. They will let the people into the main room but not into the throne room where the king truly resides which is underground in a room surrounded by lava that players can be dropped into via a trap door if they anger the flame king. Players can try to kill the bring peace back to the floor or try to negotiate enough peace between the mobs and the person to try and keep the people safe by making the flame king’s iron patrols back away and stop being produced. The Flame king wearing the crown, holding a sword, and having his throne all made of the same material. Can wield a 2H weapon in one hand. Link to post Share on other sites
Baldur 0 Posted December 4, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I love the idea! This is the kind of thing I'm tentatively referring to as a "campaign quest." Can't wait to see what you do with it! Link to post Share on other sites
