Riganalt Sarso

Morgrave Scholar

Riganalt Sarso, an unscrupulous but charming Morgrave scholar in Stormreach, recently came into possession of a stone tablet purporting to reveal the location of the glaive. He sees this as his chance to write himself into the history of the destiny arms and to achieve the renown he feels he deserves. Riganalt is no adventurer, however, so he turns to the PCs to help him achieve his goal.

The glaive of the darkest depths is one of the destiny arms, created by a powerful jungle giant necromancer named Izzdelth. Izzdelth crafted the glaive for use against ethereal quori antagonists, but it was lost during a pitched battle. Izzdelth suspected that the quori had stolen the glaive and hidden it away. After extensive research, he discovered the location of the glaive’s underground resting place and went in search of it. He never returned.

Now an earthquake has opened the way to the glaive of the darkest depths, along with Izzdelth’s bones. Will the PCs retrieve the powerful weapon, or will they join the giant in his tomb?

Spear of the Desert Winds

The spear of the desert winds is one of the destiny arms, once carried by the sun giant chieftain Axa’tasamat. Long after the war with the quori ended, Axa’tasamat returned to the desert home of his tribe and ruled in relative peace. Upon his death, the spear of the desert winds was entombed with him in a sacred crypt beneath the burning sands.

Axa’tasamat’s tomb has been sealed since his death forty thousand years ago, and while others still camp in the surrounding area, they avoid the sacred ground. The PCs face a number of challenges before they can retrieve the spear, not least of which is the desert itself.
