Summoned by the Emperor - Servants of Mez'Gar Storyline



A party of villains is summoned and bound to Brock Mez’Gar by a Geas. The party consists of a Hobgoblin Paladin of Bane, and Orc Barbarian, a Warforged Fighter, a Teifling Warlock, and a Teifling Warlord.

They assemble in a sewer and Emperor Brock Mez’Gar tells them they must all find a magic artifact shaped like a pyramid for him. They travel down deeper into the sewer where they encounter a large lizard, some human rogues, and several dwarves. They fight and defeat them.

A ghostly apparition appears and points to the pyramid. They touch it and are instantly transported into a dungeon where they are knee deep in corpses. A thri-kreen is battling an ettin, two carrion crawlers, and several zombies. They help the thri-kreen defeat the dungeons monsters and he joins the party.

They move into one of the adjacent chambers and find a pair of harpies and four sahaugin guarding the room. They demand that they hand over a speaking orb they recovered in the first chamber. The speaking orb has informed the party that they are trapped in the dungeon and can only escape by defeating a powerful mage that dwells somewhere in the dungeon. The monsters leader says they want the orb so they can escape. The party refuses and attacks them. The party defeats the monsters and finds they have a map of the dungeon.

They head towards a stairway they believe will take them towards the next level and hopefull the mage they must defeat in this magical prison. The stairwell is a magical trap that bucks and tries to tilt them into a pit. The paladin falls in and is rescued by the rest of the party. When they finally navigate their way to the top of the stairwell, they are attacked by a Bloodfire Harpy and two gargoyles. The party defeats the monsters but sustains some damage. The last surviving gargoyle carries off the cowardly Teifling Warlord that never fought and eats him. The rest of the party doesn't try to save him.
