Castle Drachenfels

Like the twisted talon of a malformed claw, the seven towers of Castle Drachenfels clutch at the sky in a gesture of malevolence and spite. Each of its misshapen turrets is festooned with windows, resembling eyes without number, alert to the arrival of any traveller unlucky - or unwise - enough to stumble upon the lair of the Great Enchanter, Constant Drachenfels.
Drachenfels - a mythically powerful sorcerer, necromancer, and daemonologist - has tormented mankind since before the time of the Empire; already ancient when he suffered his first great defeat at the hands of Sigmar Heldenhammer, he has returned time and again to his haunt in the Grey Mountains, like a festering wound that refuses to heal. Rumours abound that the seemingly quiescent ruins, mostly reduced to rubble and long forsaken, are less abandoned than they appear...
Only several years ago a play was staged in Castle Drachenfels depicting the fall of the dreaded Great Enchanter which resulted in the gruesome demise of several people that were involved in that event two decades prior and an attempt on the lives of the Emperor and Elector Counts present, after which the castle was abandoned once again.
