Cathedral Restoration

Added 2024-07-25 07:22:40 +0000 UTC

During the renovations of an ancient cathedral, a priceless artifact has been unearthed. The bishop, excited yet cautious, has been ordered not to touch it until the higher clergy can verify its authenticity. However, a fierce storm is brewing, expected to rage for a day or more, delaying the clergy's arrival for at least two days. The bishop already suspects that word of the treasure has spread through the town, and rumors of a plot to steal it are growing.

Your mission: Defend the artifact. Win the eternal gratitude (and hefty payment) of the religious order.

Fail, and face certain doom.

Map Description

The old cathedral stands as a stately building that has seen better days. Your players can explore five detailed levels and the surrounding grounds. A cemetery lies to one side, and the entire area is enclosed by a wall that offers a measure of discretion. Visit the bell tower or delve into the anterooms to see what treasures are hidden among the rubble.
