A small suburb of Montesque which is about a 15 Minute walk away. Cyrptinth is the home of Duke Ryldinmar Cyrptinth after his retirement. Even though he is retired, the former Duke is still busy and leaves his affairs to his younger cousin who re-emerged after he accepted his Dark Elf Birthright. The Lord Reeve, Kymiru Cryptinith, runs the town in Duke Ryldinmar’s stead.
Everyone in Cyrptinth is a lycan. There is a Magic on the town that prevents anyone that has a Curse of Transformation from transforming within the city walls. If you are outside of the city walls when the Sunsets, your Curse of Transformation will trigger and the Feral will come for you to recruit you. If you are inside the City Gates before sundown, despite the moonphase, you will be able to resist the call to Transform by the Moon.
Misc: Laws of Cryptinith
Any of the villians of Elysia, that could not be slain or banished, are locked up in the Dark Tower. An Order of Mages known as The Oblivion’s Edge guard the Dark Tower. This order was established as a Ducal Order but their existence has been cast into the shadows purposely to avoid the eyes of evil forces. The city looks completely empty but well kept and not in disarray because of a magical glamour mainained by the Oblivion’s Edge. Citizens don’t appear to stay in the city proper just on the outskirts. Under the surface the town is populated but those citizens are cloaked.
Nearly 3 years ago, when the Crystal Barrier went up, a sizeable contingent of Valdrick’s forces were trapped in Simoondale. A Master Vampire named Demitri Revendreth was in charge. Under his cruel and wicked mind, Demitri waged war on the Mages of . Demitri intercepted all correspondence The Oblivion’s Edge attempted to send to the Duke seeking aid, locking The Oblivion’s Edge into a hopeless silent war. Demitri is working for someone known as the Green-Eyed Demon expecting as his payment to be returned to Valdrick upon granting Green-Eyed Demon access to the Dark Tower. In the end all of the mages save the Human High Archon Solomon Zeneth fell to Dimitri’s tactics. Dimitri could not gain the secrets of the tower from of them due to a mystical force that was present on the mages.
Kysol Aszeel the Wizard of Vengeance and Vilification lead a noble court called Northumberland. 15 Years ago Kysol was obliterated and exiled, upon his death he transformed into a Master Werewolf and fled to his liege’s home and bit a large amount of people making an Army of Lycans to dissuade anyone from hunting him.
Now while Kysol is technically the Alpha (leader) of the Feral, no one has seen him in years. Many fear he still lurks in the wilds of Cryptinith. The Beta of the Feral, Ulrick Firepaw has been very active as of these past 2 months since the reports from Moutesque have stopped coming out.
If the Feral catch any Lycans transformed after dark, they enact a ritual to sway them to their side and embrace their inner Lycan.
In life, the Chaotic One was known as Draven Sundarr of Sundarr City in Woodhaven. He was a noble and honorable knight in Elysia in the first days of its founding 40 some years ago. In his older age, he was tempted by Chaos when he was disillusioned by the Nobility and the lack of ambition in Elysia.
A Chaos Knight known as Nekrotis-Gul the Unbound, offered to fuse himself to Draven if he pledged to bring Elysia to a state of “Paradise”. His vision of paradise is simple. Overthrow Elysian rule and sit upon the throne ushering in an Era of Disorder and Chaos destroying the “Corrupted Order” of Elysian Nobiliy. Draven was enthralled by power and the ability to take charge as he saw fit. He accepted the gift and went to the Chaos plane with Nekrotis-Gul. Together they fused their souls into one armor clad shape. His new name was unpronounceable by any Tyrran tongue so his true name became Nekrotis-Gul the Unbound but on Tyrra he is known as “The Chaotic One” or “The Green-Eyed Demon”
The Chaotic One” had spent the past 3 years building up an underground cult of disillusioned people in Elysia. These followers were not thrilled with how they were “abandoned” and “left to die” or were asking “where was our nobility, we faithfully served” . The Star of Nekron cult promises to “Break the Chains” that shackle Elysian citizens to their current caste and not allow them to rise in status.
The cult is known outwardly as the Children of the Stars but among themselves they are known as the “Star of Nekron”. The cult’s symbol is a green and white star tattooed on the forearm, neck, hand, or forehead.
They follow the Green Star of Hope which appeared over Moutesque and Cryptinth recently. Once enough faith in the “Green Star” has been raised, the Star of Nekron appears in an area and collect all energy they siphon to the cause. The cultist refer to the “Green Eyed One” as their patron “Spirit” that will return Elysia to “Balance” if pressed they will only utter the name “Krotis-Gul” The cover story they have is he was a Warrior of Elysia some almost 40 years ago who disappeared into the Fae Realm and has been seen recently as to return. It sounds like they are kinda crazy about their devotion in this hero but they are 100% in their belief in it.
The “Speakers of Nekron” are the spiritual leaders who guide the followers to focusing all their “hate” and “disillusionment” into pure energy and give it up to Nekron whom they believe is a profit that will “Deliver them a Paradise from Elysian suffering”
The cult structure is simple: Nekron is above all, the Speakers of Nekron guide the way, the Blade of Nekron protect them, and the Followers are known as Children of the Stars
One of the blessings Krotis-Gul gives to his “true” followers is the Immunity to Charm and Enslavement because theyvalue of free will above all.
To do this, he intends to creat eupon 4 powerful “Fiends’’ to do his bidding and secure his ascendancy. To create the 4 Fiends, Draven must “free” a powerful spirit from the Dark Tower and split its power into 4 then fuel them with his cult, the Children of the Stars .
Seeing some of Valdricks troops left behind in Elysia after the Crystal Barrier, he began searching for the Key to the Dark Tower of Montesque. When he discovered the location of the original, someone had beaten him to it but a note was left with specific instructions on how to get a “One Time Access Key” to the Tower. To gain access to this key, Draven approached Valdricks forces and offered them a return to their master if they helped him gain the Key Copy. After some discussion of the terms, Valdricks forces allied themselves with Draven until the deal was done.

The Feral
You are the apex predator, the Feral strike fear into the hearts of the weak and strong. Though one by one they might not be as terrifying as other Lycans, their pack tactics and sheer aggression set them apart from your average Lycan. Unlike other Lycans who just mindlessly kill, they go for infection over evisceration. They will still kill if enraged or the target is too persistent about not dying, but they Feral prefer to Bite you and let you succumb to the Lunacy of the Beast under a Full Moon to join their ranks. While they seem just like incredibly bloodthirsty savage berserkers, they are quite intelligent despite the berserker tendency in their blood on their hunting. During the day you are a normal person just with anger issue, but at night you become a Feral again with almost no control over your Transformation unless inside the City Gates of Cryptinth

Motivations: SPREAD LYCANTHROPY!!! The Feral are relentless and terrifying. They inflict their madness on other and see how strong the spirit is to fight off the Lunacy of the Beast. Those who cannot fight off the Beast become Feral, those who fight off the Beast still walk the path of the Lycan and are tested each Full Moon of their spirit. Any undead will be smited where they stand despite your berserk rage, just because you are a mindless berserker doesn’t mean your have the primal urge to fight Undead like all Lycans.

Brief: A local merchant in Cryptinith has been shorted on a trade deal. The matter was brought to the Lord Reeve and he was headed to deal with it but now that there are adventurers, a test of their persuasion and investigation is called.
Requirements:
Synopsis: The Lord Reeve of Cyptinith sets out to the Tavern, before they meet Kyumiri Cryptinth, a last group of Feral snuck into the City Gates and sensed the Lycans among the Adventurers in the Tavern. The Feral “randoms” set out for them as Kyumiri makes his grand appearance cutting a path through them to reach the adventurers. Upon his arrival and the dispatching of the Feral, the High Lord Reeve will welcome the Adventurers and give them 2 tasks to judge their skills before setting out for Moutesque. The nature of the trade dispute is a shipment of Silver Ore and Alchemy to Corin Stellin, a local independent trader and merchant. Orden Dutah, an experienced businessman, feels Corin is taking advantage of the Guilds hospitality allowing him to be a free trader and independent operating outside the “rules of the guilds.” Corin is upset over the taxes the Guilds charge for Silver imports given the nature of Lycans and the Laws of Cryptinth. The Lord Reeve doesn’t like to get involved with he Guilds unless he has too, this keeps his mind focused on the task of protecting the Town. Corin doesn’t feel the taxes should apply in this dire need. Orden wants to collect the Guilds tax on Corin despite his good intentions. The Lord Reeve wants the PCs to resolve this task for him to see how they navigate a new lands diplomacy.

Brief: A Feral pack has captured a few citizens of Cryptinith just before Dusk on their way back into the gates. If they are not rescued they will be eaten alive as a sacrifice to their “Alpha” The Lord Reeve, Kymiru Cryptinith, asks for help
Requirements:
Synopsis: The Lord Reeve of Cyptinith has made it to the tavern and made his presence known. 2 tasks have been laid out before the adventurers. But when the PCs arrive and slay the Lycans, there is a morale choice to make with the Bitten citizens…
Outcomes:
Number of Cast Members: 7
Misc: Curse of Transformation Magical Beast Lycan (The Feral)
Treasure: , ( Description: Duration: Effects: )
Rumors:
“This is a call for aid to the Heroes or Elysia! Something sinister is afoot in the shadows of Moutesque. We have our own share of problems with the Feral lurking in the forests outside of Cryptinth. STICK TO THE ROADS ON YOUR WAY HERE AND DO NOT TRAVEL AT NIGHT ALONE!!! Make sure you bring Silver weapons….. but please do not carry them openly in the city walls of Cryptinth. I shall post the laws of our city very soon. This expeditionary force will rendezvous on the 2nd of June 623. You may use our city of Cryptinth as your forward base as the city of Moutesque is not habitable to anyone besides the mages of Obilvions Edge.”
~Kyumiri Cryptinth, High Lord Reeve of Cryptinth
Hook: Kyumiri makes his appearance to aid the Adventurers. Once the Feral are dispatched, Kyumiri will begin his welcoming ritual and trial
Scenes:
Running Notes: This module is the introduction to the High Lord Reeve Kyumiri Cryptinth, it begins with a small skirmish with Feral and ends with a Roleplay encounter welcoming the Adventurers to Cryptinth. Kyurmiri will give them 2 tasks to judge their abilities to handle Moutesque. The First is a Trade Dispute and a test of their diplomatic and reasoning skills. The Second module will be a Test of Might. These two modules will go off back to back depending on which path they choose to go first The High Lord Reeve Kyumiri will lead the Adventurers who wish to free the citizens to the location he was given by his scouts in Hakkens Blade. When he gets near the location, Kyumiri will offer to guard the path while the Adventurers enter the Cave and save the citizens. Should things get too out of hand, Kyumiri wont let them fall but he wont intervene unless its certain death. This is a test of their bravery and to see how they handle themselves in a smaller encounter vs a mass battle like the Feral prefer to capture in. The morality choice at the end of this module is COMPLETELY upto the PCs. Kyumiri will take whatever they choose as the fate of the citizens if he is not involved in the battle. If Kyumiri is involved he will take make the choice more difficult as he will add a level to guilt to the decisions and express the concerns for life and death. IF KYUMIRI is involved, he will add a special level of guilt to either choice. If Ghile takes him under his wing, then he could shift and get out of control and kill innocents. If Haldin is allowed to be slain for a “mercy” killing, Kyumiri will put the guilt on them about an untested soul by the Beast and question their judgement. The final note is ONLY if Kyumiri is INVOLVED if the players fail and he has to rescue them

Requirements:
Synopsis: The presence of the Green Star, aka the Star of Nekron has made the veil between the Chaos Plane and Tyrra much thinner. Chaos Creatures are beginning to spawn from random portals in the Forest. The effect of the Chaos Rifts spawning is what is driving the Feral wild and into more of an uncontrolled Frenzy. Normally they kill with a purpose but now it is indiscriminately. These portals can’t be shut easily but they only last for a short period of time.

Requirements:
Synopsis: Early in the morning, just after sunrise, a Speaker of Nekron and a Blade of Nekron were killed outside of the City Walls on a walk. A traumatized Follower of the “Children of the Stars” saw the Lycan who slayed them flew into the City Gates. With help of Hakkens Blade, they have gathered up the 5 suspects they believe might be. It is upto the players now to play Jury and Executioner now. The Speaker Issac Tempest will be the one rounding up the PCs and explaining the situation. The traumatized Follower will be present but will side with whatever the players choose is the Guilty party as they only saw a Lycan and not the human form.
A Speaker of Nekron and his Blade of Nekron were brutally murdered in the early morning hours and the Lycan fled into the City Gates. The 5 suspects all seem to be ruffians and potentially guilty but one is definitely the killer. It is up to the players to find and execute the right man. Speaker Issac doesn’t care who it is, he just wants “Justice” for his Followers being killed. The 5 suspects will give a story and then it’s up to the players to decide who they believe and pass judgment.

Motivation: Draw as many people into the Children of the Stars, Get as much donations as possible, Get people to put “faith” in the cause so the Star grows in power
You have been rounded up and deemed “guilty” of a crime you may or may not have committed. You have faith in the system of justice that your innocence will be proven before a jury of your peers. One of you is guilty of Murder but the lot they have collected is easily passable as all could be guilty…
Role Play Notes:
choose a vice: drinking, fighting gambling, lying, brothels, stealing
· Make your story have a flaw or two in it so it is believable enough, but something seems off
· You ALL have a crippling Vice (drinking, fighting gambling, lying, brothels, stealing, etc) so weave that into the story to make yourself seem questionable.
· If they look like they are picking you as the “guilty” party, beg and plead for your life OR just tell them to get it over with and accept your fate
· The “Real Murderer” is Suspect #5! Your motive was that you didn’t like the way the Speaker “smelled” just something was “off” about him and it drove you into a bloodlust, the next thing you knew your Transform took over and you murdered them. You remember fleeing into the City Gates and hiding till someone found you passed out in an alleyway.
· Suspect #5 will elect for Trial by Combat for his death if they sentence him to Death. He isn’t granted this rite by law but it is upto the PCs if they choose to accept his terms of not. If they accept his terms then he shifts when the fight begins. If they decline his request, then he will become aggressive and back into a corner and start snarling at the PCS (Use Feral Random Card for Fight)
· If any of the other Suspects are picked for Execution, they will either beg/plead or just tell them to get it over with and kneel
Body: 10
Abilities: 7th level Lycan transform, Read and Write
Killing Blow: No
Motivation: Not being found Guilty!!! ARGUE AMOUNG YOURSELVES!!!! You don’t give a shit about each other; you just want to be set free and left alone.
You are a Loyal Follower of the Children of the Stars. Seeing a Speaker and a Blade cut down in such cold blood is unnerving and traumatic to your heart. You have devoted your daily life cause to the Children of the Stars. You truly believe that they can change Elysia for the better and bring the commoners cries to the nobility.
Body:
Role Play Notes:
· This REALLY mortified you seeing a Speaker and a Blade mauled by a “wild” Lycan
· Your family has been helped greatly by the Children of the Stars
· The Speaker who was slain personally saved your Son from a Feral 3 months ago
· SOMEONE MUST PAY!!!! You wont be satisfied till the laws of Elysia get a murdered executed for committing such an act
· If anyone speaks to you directly, you will back away and try to hide behind Speaker Issac

Motivation: Horrified!!! You watched a Lycan cut down a Speaker and Blade of the Stars you were on a walk with. Your faith in the Children of the Stars is UNSHAKEN!!! In fact it is now strengthened even more so seeing your “leaders” died for their message.

Requirements:
Synopsis: A concerned Groundskeeper comes to the tavern to seek the aid of the PCs to clear out a Catabcomb he is certain a servant of Demitri Revendreath has been working evil magic in.

Storyteller: Balor is a gruff old grumpy Dwarf but an honorable one. He has seen more battles with the monsters of Elysia than he cares to remember. You can always get him to talk about his glory days over a nice warm pint. No one knows the town of Stonewood better than Balor, he keeps tabs on everyone for the greater good of the town. Depending how the PCs interact with him, he will start to open up about rebellion or laugh at their dreams of liberating the town of Stonewood.
Healer of Last Resort: If the PC group has no healer and none is available, allow the PCs to choose to come back later to Balor can be convinced to go if no one else in town will go. But he will insist this be something he must be a part of that it is “not his story”

Brief: Sundown in Cryptinith is a bit more chaotic than normal. The Feral have gone on the hunt for anyone they see outside the City Gates before Nightfall, though something has forced their Transformation earlier…
Requirements:
Synopsis: Shortly after Reset on Saturday, something sends the Feral into a killing frenzy. What is worse is their Transformations have been sparked before the moon is up! This is a result of all the Chaos Energy in the area and the Star of Nekron acting as a amplifier for the Moon’s natural Lunar Tide on the Feral. All once howls pierce the air and the Feral ALL transform at once, ascending to their warform they call “Chrinos” The Torches have not been lit yet so the Feral can freely rush the City Gates and attack, this has NEVER happened before… The module will start with all NPCS who can play Feral going to separate ends of the camp and Howling followed by a Transform 3 Count, a Marshall will call “ALL TRANSFORMS UP” when the FERAL approach as they feel the Chaotic energy from them. At the time of ALL TRANSFORMS UP call, a timer is set for 30 minutes.

Outcomes: (
Number of Cast Members: ALL
Roles: Feral Lycan (Grey Werewolves, Brown Werebears, Black Werepanthers)
Props: Fur Tabards, Glowing Eyes, Claws
Tags and Treasure: Production Item, Components, Coins
RRunning Notes:
The Feral
You are the apex predator, the Feral strike fear into the hearts of the weak and strong. Though one by one they might not be as terrifying as other Lycans, their pack tactics and sheer aggression set them apart from your average Lycan. Unlike other Lycans who just mindlessly kill, they go for infection over evisceration. They will still kill if enraged or the target is too persistent about not dying, but they Feral prefer to Bite you and let you succumb to the Lunacy of the Beast under a Full Moon to join their ranks. While they seem just like incredibly bloodthirsty savage berserkers, they are quite intelligent despite the berserker tendency in their blood on their hunting. During the day you are a normal person just with anger issue, but at night you become a Feral again with almost no control over your Transformation unless inside the City Gates of Cryptinth
Feral Lycan (Grey Werewolves, Brown Werebears, Black Werepanthers)
Body: 200
Defenses: Revive unless killed by Silver, Immune to Charm, Immune to Curse, Immune to Sleep, Immune to Create Undead Spell, Rips from Pin/Bind/Web/Confine, Threshold 5, Double Damage from Silver, Return x5, Dodge x2, Cloak Chaos x3, Resist Poison x5
Magic: None
Weapons: Claws
Damage: 10 Normal/Silver/Magic (May switch depending on what they are facing. Silver vs other Lycans, Magic vs Undead, Normal for anything else.)
Abilities: Arcane Fear x3 (Must Howl Before), Spellstrike Harm Undead 30 x5, Spellstrike Destroy Undead x5, Critical Slay (Massive) x1, May inflict Curse of Transformation on 3 count bite to unconscious or dead NPC/PC at will, Arcane Berserk x1, Cure Mortal Wounds 40 x3 (Touch Cast), Physical Strike: Destroy x3, Physical Strike: Pin x3, Physical Strike: Bind x3,
SPECIAL NOTES: FERALS CANNOT BE CALMED OR PURIFIED BLOOD FROM BERSERK. CoT non-Ferals can be Calmed but not Purified Blood from their berserker rage
Killing Blow Active: No, Feral would rather infect CoT than Killing Blow to spread their kind on others. If you down someone and you can, perform a 3 count Bite to inflict a CoT on your victim
Motivations: SPREAD LYCANTHROPY!!! The Feral are relentless and terrifying. They inflict their madness on other and see how strong the spirit is to fight off the Lunacy of the Beast. Those who cannot fight off the Beast become Feral, those who fight off the Beast still walk the path of the Lycan and are tested each Full Moon of their spirit. Any undead will be smited where they stand despite your berserk rage, just because you are a mindless berserker doesn’t mean your have the primal urge to fight Undead like all Lycans.

(Brown Werebears, Black Werepanthers)
Reset: The Feral spawn every 5 minutes upon death. To simulate this, when “Dead” take your 5-minute death count (enjoy the rest lol) and then as you “Resurrect” walk out of site and Respawn, if there are other Feral to revive with do that. MAKE THE PLAYERS HUNT YOU!!!! When you revive, Howl to signify another Feral has “Returned”

Killing Blow: No, Feral would rather infect Curse of Transformation than Killing Blow to spread their kind on others. If you down someone and you can, perform a 3 count Bite to inflict a Curse of Transformation on your victim.
Motivation: SPREAD LYCANTHROPY!!! The Feral are relentless and terrifying. They inflict their madness on other and see how strong the spirit is to fight off the Lunacy of the Beast. Those who cannot fight off the Beast become Feral, those who fight off the Beast still walk the path of the Lycan and are tested each Full Moon of their spirit. Any undead will be smited where they stand despite your berserk rage, just because you are a mindless berserker doesn’t mean your have the primal urge to fight Undead like all Lycans.
Speech: Low and growling. Howl when you approach your prey.
Tactics: Fight as a pack. Go for infection over evisceration
Movement: Hunched and powerful.
Descriptive Phrase: mangy hunched humanoid wolf.
If the Feral bite you, they can inflict a Curse or Transformation based on their Lycan type.aa
The Feral have cursed you with a level 7 transform from the magical beast section on page 20 of the transform packet. You can have a curse of transform and a normal formal transformation cast on you. Curses are suppressed until they activate while Transforms you can feel and channel.
You can feel the pull of rage that the flows through the feral and the call of the beast.
The trigger for the Curse of Transformation: Outside the City Gates of Cryptinth after dark. There will be a siren played at dusk. If you are caught outside the City Gates you will be forced into a Berserker State as your Curse of Transformatoin comes tearing out. YOU WILL FIGHT EVERYTHING YOU SEE! The Calm spell will bring them out of the Berserker state but they are Immune to Awaken

Dark Fae Owl Scarf Riddles (Personal Plot Item for Adira)
The Black Scarf with the Silver Owl will call to Adira the second the Cave is opened. If she solves the Riddles of the Scarf, the Scarf will bind itself to her and she will feel the embrace of the Dark/Shadow Fae Court. A presence she knows the feeling of but not the name of the creature that reaches out to her (He is known as “the Cold One”). This begins her Dark Fae transform plotline
