Mausoleum of the Damned

Dungeon type adventure for friday evening:

Plotline:
- PCs prime hunters of the regiment --> Dispatched to hunt down deserters
- Deserters not deserters, but caught and bewitched by a Revenant Knight
- The Revenant Knight has been cursed to witness his own folly time and time again.

Atmospheric:
- Wax candles in terracotta candle holders
- Gothic arched niches in the walls (http://www.codesmiths.com/shed/workshop/techniques/arches.htm). Dead soldiers have been interred in the arched niches. (The niches are necromantic devices that draw black essence from the corpses, in effect fueling the Revenant Knight's abilities and strengths. Remember to provide clues to the players in the library, or office, or some such)
-

Enemy roster:
- Coldforged Revenant Knight, Durach Enharh, Knight Captain of the West Tower (in the fallen Bluethon civilization). Durach was cursed to live eternally after he murdered and raped the wife of his lord, a crime of passion born from his age long lust for the beautiful, but flirtatious, coy and teasing, duchess.
- Bewitched slave eunuch regiment guards, the 'Murder Dogs of Umarrh'
- Bewitched battle mage, Eres Ben Ibthath, Adept Mage of the Ibthath Circle of Conjurors.
- Conjured enormous rat pack, tainted by murder (born by lust) demon. They are all pervasive, sitting on the mage's shoulder (whispering ominous things in his ear), crawling out between the ribs of the zombie maidens, and scuttling along the ceiling of some of the chambers the PCs are passing through.
- Zombie Maidens: The Revenant Knight has been cursed to see the Duchess in every beautiful maiden he lay his eyes upon, and in his crazed hunger he slays them all in his bedchamber of passion. These rotting beauties shuffle about his bed, only laying down on the floor to witness the horrified screams of Durachs next victim (female PCs beware)
