The Ruins of the Elder One (campaign)

The Ruins of the Elder One was the very first campaign in the world of Relalia. It remains unfinished and might be regarded as non-canon because of it.

Certain characters and places will likely be reused in future campaigns.

Introduction
"Most of you have heard people talking about a high elf with… rather high ambitions. An elf named Deacon Honestus has been looking for a group of noble adventurers to assist him in his quest to bring peace to Queensen. Upon hearing his request you understand that your job will be to venture into an ancient abandoned temple, now called the Ruins of the Elder One. Inside there is an ancient artifact, said to give vast amounts of knowledge, and even allows one to foresee the future. Deacon is hiring you to enter the ancient temple, delve into the dungeon below it, and summon him only when you find this artifact. Deacon makes it very clear that he seeks only to use this power to save Queensen, and rid it of bandits and criminals.

''Queensen itself has a peaceful history, but in recent years, the southern areas of the continent are more chaotic and lawless. Bandits and Orcs ravage peaceful settlements and farms, and order is all but forgotten. There are a few amount of settlements with their own form of government and law, but the majority of Queensen can be a complete death trap.''

Those of you who are wanting to be generally good people see this as a way to make a mark on the world, to make a legacy for yourself that will forever be praised.

''Those of you who come from a criminal-ish background, likely are keeping that a secret. Deceiving your comrades and wanna get in and get out with payment. Or any precious relics you could sell for a good price."''

Summary
A wealthy high elf named Deacon Honestus hires a group of adventurers to retrieve an artifact for him, claiming he needs it for his quest to rid Queensen of the bandits that have plagued the area for so many years.

Deacon sends with them his own historian named Romenas Silven, who has studied the ruins and will know about the religious history of the place.
