The Plaguelands

Whether by newspaper, job board or chance, the following letter has fallen into your lap:
CALL TO ACTION Heroes of Loclias, lend us your aid! The horrors that plague our lands have coalesced onto the island of Strathmore, and we gnomes need your help to fend them off to heal the land. Come immediately to Wratholme, our last, best hope at restoration. Permit us your steel, purge the land of disease, and defeat the Plague Lords of Loclias. You’ll be handsomely rewarded, and remembered forever as Heroes! -Wilfred Gearturner
For money, morality, or perhaps pure sport, you’ve decided to come along.

Themes

The journey ahead is dangerous. Loclias is indeed a land that has been ravaged by contagions of every sort, but the taverns are speaking of terrible, deforming disease coming from the isle of Strathmore; diseases said to break your mind, your body, and your spirit. The journey ahead will test your survival skills, your combat mettle, and your ability make impossible decisions. Watch your step.
