Crypt Crawl 1: Introduction.

So I am planning a short dungeon crawl to help my player learn fate.  As an exercise I thought I would post my notes here.

Warlock's Journal Contest 6: There be Monsters.

The Warlock’s Journal is an multidimensional book that teleports from place to place, recording knowledge in whatever location it finds itself. The places it goes may be widely separated in time and space and even be in different dimensions or alternate realities.

The handful of people who have actually seen the book more than once suggest that it sends its information back to some central location, as they have seen the book nearly filled with information, only to find it almost empty again, or filled with completely different information, at some later point.

Of course, since there is no real proof that the book itself travels through time in a linear manner, such analysis is speculation at best. What powerful entity could have created such a marvel? Where is the ultimate repository (if any) of the wealth of knowledge collected by the Journal in its roving, and is its creator still waiting there, learning about the multiverse? It is, perhaps, better not to know.

(For a Better description of what the Warlock's Journal contest is Tabletop adventures have said it well here.)

This is the sixth Warlock's Journal contest.  See the others 1  2  3  4  5

Now landing at a world set in an odd realm.  One where the concept of monster creation takes center place.  Whether grown, forged, summoned or a combination there of, monster creation is the focus of this realm.  Each creature has a story, let's find out what they are.
