AC7. The Spindle of Heaven





Actually, AC7 is the Master Player Screen module, but it comes with an 8 page mini-adventure called The Spindle of Heaven. We’ll run that now in order keep things


At the end of the first week of the month, Kabloona, who is the leader of the Bear Tribe of barbarians to the north uses his Spellcache Ring that Alzar gave him to contact him about something odd that has happened out in his territory. Alzar teleports over to check it out. There is a giant spindle-like structure about 25 miles away from Kabloona’s camp, and there is a huge cyclone over top of the structure that is giving off massive gusts of wind and blasts of lightning. The storm is sessile and locked to hover over the structure, and would prevent any climbing or flying nearby.

Alzar grabs his crystal ball and begins to scry it. The walls are uniformly circular with a glistening white sheen. There are no windows or doors, but a small chasm at the bottom of one of the walls. The walls are not made of any substance that Alzar is familiar with, and resist all attempts to penetrate the with divinatory magic. He can’t follow the chasm past the wall either.

Kabloona tells Alzar that this structure was not here recently, but instead came about recently. The storm is never ceasing. Alzar heads back and teleports over some stuff to use to divine what has happened, but it resists all attempts. He tries to fly close with his Flying Carpet, but he is blown out of the sky before he even gets close, and he cannot secure a aerial reconnaissance.
