Hired by: High Guildsman Samson (thaum)

Check up on demonologist (Guildsman Paterson) who hasn't checked in with the guild in a while. Has
been working for the guild on some minor research so has been exempt from fees but as they hasn't
reported back want to make sure they’re doing the required work or will pay the due fees.

Lives in a small village in the lands of Malig, continue north west past Lighthouse, further north than
Ratlinggate

Social pay.

Encounters :

Encounter 1: Guards on the road: More reports of heretics in the area (bequificians), includes
foulspawn. If they’re on the way to the portal they’re heading the wrong way, that’s to the south.
The Malig region is north. Few small villages around.

Encounter 2: Foulspawn/ bequifcian heretics - angry looking for their missing priest/chief. No actual
power, just very aggressive. If they players try to talk to them

Encounter 3: Village near the mage house (various cuts and scars on a few of the villagers. Some cult
tattoos.) They claim to have not seen the mage in some time, he’s a bit strange and his house always
has an odd spicy smell to it. He’s been away for a while and only recnelty came back, but not seen
him in a week or two. Not unusual, nothing to worry about.

If asked about their scars or bequificians they will say they dark god cultists have always been an
issue, but things have gotten quieter, the village hasn’t been attacked in some time. They are blessed
(yup let’s have everyone say blessed and nod). None of them are followers of any god.

One of them has the charged scroll of lay to rest. They will refuse to talk about it – it’s personal.

Encounter 4: Dark elves - warn players away, ask them why they are there. Will cut them down if
they do anything but leave (will flee if they are getting knackered) - must keep things pure. Will take
captives of possible. Some torturing.

Encounter 5: Totally tortured to death bequificians and a dead troll. Autopsy/blacksmiths can show
the use of enchanted weapons and poison on some. General high level of skill. The troll’s wounds
show no signs of having regenerated.

Wolf headed demon rooting through the mage’s things. The mage is dead and has been horribly
tortured.
