Quest Content
Quest Giver: Ropunith (goliath emissary) via Dragon Logistics
Reward: 200gp + favour from the goliath tribes
The goliath tribes on the Highland Plateau have been disturbed by a silvery being that approaches people and flexes its muscles. When met with force, it proceeds to out-flex its adversaries without causing harm. The being has been making weekly rounds through each tribe, and while some goliaths now welcome it as a strength challenge to prove their worth, others find the situation troubling.
Ropunith, a goliath emissary, seeks adventurers to:
- Investigate the silver being’s origin
- Determine why it repeatedly challenges the tribes
- Ensure it poses no actual threat
- If possible, communicate with it or redirect its attention
Hooks:
- Characters interested in ancient mysteries and constructs
- Those seeking favour with the goliath tribes
- Anyone drawn to unusual, non-violent encounters
- Groups curious about the geometric portal on the plateau
Starting Point:
Dragon Logistics office in Northward. Ropunith provides directions to the Highland Plateau and descriptions of where the silver being was last seen.
DM-Notes:
The silver being is a construct guardian left by the ancient civilisation to protect the geometric portal. It does not attack but tests those who approach through displays of physical prowess. Goliaths who prove themselves worthy are tacitly granted access to the portal; those who resort to violence are gently but firmly removed from the vicinity. This encounter can introduce characters to the portal network and, if they investigate the Outer Storage Facility, the connection to Chrysalis.
