The Pale Vale: D&D One Shot
103In a Godless, forsaken world on the brink of calamity, many adventures are taking place to stifle or quicken its demise. Adventures of epic proportions where the stakes couldn't be higher... This is not one of them...
For somewhere in a run down town, a shady pub resides as the only lit building on the streets. The Cat Claw Inn. With a poorly hidden reputation for being a branch of the Thieves Guild. This night, the landlord, barkeep and fence of this branch, Stainless, has a contract to break in to a banquet held for the higher members of society, much fancier than anything these no good scoundrels have ever experienced. Sounds like a good gig for no mark is more gullable and easy than the soft rich folk. But there's a catch, it's at the Westbird Manor... Suddenly, a once in a life time opportunity has turned in to something not even the most cut throat thieves will touch...
Enter tonight's crew of starry eyed, witless adventurers. Wet behind the ears of thievery, they're looking to prove themselves and get rich trying... But there's a reason no one with a fear of the unknown goes near that cursed site...
