The Emperors Lost Mines - A Roleplaying Adventure
The Emperors Mines had been lost to time, the forges and production lines silent and buried. Is it possible that their secrets would ever see Sigmars or anyone else's light again?
The PCRC decided that as an alternative to meeting up during the COVID lockdown we could engage in a number of other things we really wanted to do but had not got around to. namely:
- Fleshing out the Tallowlands a bit more
- Roleplaying
- Getting Excited about Age of Sigmar
In other posts Apologist has gone into detail on other aspects of this but here, well here is the story of the PCRCs foray into the Tallowlands as a party of Adventurers, using the D&D 5e rules to give us some structure.
We have had a ball so far, one of their quests involved rescuing a town near Narya:
from the clutches of an evil wizard, based in the dungeons of the local manor house:
The party itself consists of:
- Wutroth - A wandering Dwarf from the North West with a typical rich dawi outlook on life.
- Torquil - A human folk hero and swashbuckling rogue whose only weakness is a mirror.
- Lackjon - An Idoneth Aelf who is on a journey of self discovery as much as he is there to help his friends
- Balthazer - A Lumineth / High Elf Wizard
- Xali-Qhops - A 1 year old Lizardperson from a distant realm adventuring for posteriority, to discover the meaning of the twin tailed comet
- Oriorin - A Paladin who is devoted to Alarielle and to nature as much as he is to his friends.
- Alaster - A mysterious human Lockpick and rogue from the Sinian Empire before its fall
I am hoping that the PCRC edit this post and/or post their own updates on the adventures of their characters!
They were brought together by their Dawi friend Gun-dren who has caught wind of the Emperors lost mines. After foiling an ambush and rescuing Sildar (who wishes to bring order to the town), they finally discovered the location of Krag-maw castle, the old ruling center of the vassal fief, from an old witch hunter, Josef.
Josef was a mysterious man who seemed to know an awful lot about the Sinian Empire at its peak and even some of the characters visiting him. He showed a keen ability to dispatch the undead with his gleaming antique pistols.

That position no longer officially exists since the Empire fell. Thanks to Apologist for the pic.
The group now seem to be hard on the trail of the mines and of those that are intervening to stop their quest...
