TTRPG creations: 106/365: The Fifth Kings

The Fifth Kings

 Somewhere deep down in the darkness it was locked away. Either discarded, forgotten or put away for all time. In places the suns light has never touched. The darkest pits, all torch light turned a shade of slate grey. The adventuring group The Fifth Kings found something down within the depths. 

As they marveled at the riches found within the locked away part of another world a silent seed of corruption took up within all. A curious idol consisting of a claw and a large opal set within silver, small enough to be worn around the neck.

With time the idol warped the members of the fifth kings. The adventuring group turned to savage marauders. Bold brass shot boots stomped through the deep caverns halls. The axes and picks once used to clear debris found new homes within others heads. Horrific alien visages shaped the helmets of the once men. 

The fifth kings are set to stay down deep within the earth. Adventurers beware the horrible howling that pierces the caverns walls.
