CULT OF CINDERS
Chapter 1: Children of the Godslayers ........ 4
Following the cult that attacked their town, the heroes emerge into a
foreign landscape watched over by a group of elves called the Ekujae, who
have their own connections, past and present, to the current troubles.
SCARLET TRIAD GOALS
The Scarlet Triad is using the
Cinderclaws as pawns in its own
sinister plot to utilize Dahak’s
trapped manifestation. Their
leader, Uri Zandivar, knows full
well of Mengkare’s history with
the
Orb of Gold Dragonkind.
Over
the past several years, the Scarlet
Triad has been secretly gathering
up every shard of the destroyed
artifact they can find in the hope
of rebuilding it—or at least a lesser
version of it—so they can turn the
tables on Mengkare and control the
dragon. But repairing an artifact is
no easy task.
The key to these repairs, Uri
and his allies discovered, lies in
harnessing motes of energy drawn
from Dahak’s manifestation. By
extracting the influence Dahak
left in the contaminated gold,
the Scarlet Triad is on their
way toward partially repairing
the
Orb of Gold Dragonkind.
The Cinderclaws (and thus
the PCs) know none of this
information, of course, but as
Age of Ashes progresses, the PCs
will begin to uncover more and
more of this Scarlet Triad plot.
Chapter 2: Pillars of Ruin ...................... 26
The heroes set out into the hot and humid Mwangi Jungle, searching for a
set of magical dragon pillars that the Cinderclaws have enchanted to focus
and spread the foul influence of their patron god, Dahak.
Chapter 3: Blood for Gold ...................... 44
While searching for one of the Cinderclaws’ nefarious dragon pillars, the
heroes discover a hidden mining operation: cultists pulling poisonous gold
from the mud and shipping it to a mysterious group of foreigners with
unknown intentions.
Chapter 4: Legacy of Ash and Bone .......... 54
With the dragon pillars in ruins, the heroes finally have the chance to
assault the Cinderclaws in their main fortress, venturing into the fossilized
remains of an ancient dragon to end the threat of the cult once and for all!
Advancement Track
