FEDIFENSOR 一KM◇LNLBNNIn days not long past,the steeples of the temple ofAmphabese reached proudly into the sky,and the tem-ple was a bastion of goodness and justice.The order ofAmphabese,its clerics,and the others who swore allegianceto it were revered throughout the land for their workinspreadingand defending the principles of law and good.Many a young paladintook his vows at the altar of Amphabese,many a group of brave andrighteous adventurers received the blessings of the temple beforesetting out to combat evil.As much as the temple of Amphabese wasit feared and hated by the leaders of evil and their minions. by Allen Rogers An AD&DTMscenario for6-8 characters,levels 7 and up # INTRODUCTION Amphabese was a cleric named Astramal,acknowledgedby his brothers as the most devoted of them all.One night Astramal was awakened by a terrible dream-a night-mare that he took to be a vision of the future.In his dream,hesaw the temple and all its grounds desecrated and destroyed,and superimposed on the scene of carnage was the gloating faceof a powerful demon.Astramal saw the dream as a messagefrom his deity,the god's way of warning the temple that its fate—orone of its possible fates—was to be overrun by the forcesof evil and chaos. The high priest meditated and prayedfor guidance all the nextday,but received no inspiration.Then he slept,and he had asecond vision.In this dream Astramal saw himself—but as anelderly person,aman years older than the priest was at present.Astramal was in conference with a tall,strong warrior dressedin silver and white —a paladin.Cradled in the arms of the highpriest was a large,finely crafted sword which Astramal pre-sented to the warrior.That scene faded,to be replaced by thesight of a battle between the paladin and a demon.Because ofthe power in the special sword,the paladin was an easy victor;the demon was destroyed,and the good warrior stood alone,hissword raised high and his head down in prayer. Now,thought Astramal,he knew enough to embark upon acourse of action.The first thing he needed to do was acquire agreat sword like the one he had envisioned,and for this he wentto enlist the aid of asecluded band of gray elves who lived to theeast.The elves respected the temple of Amphabese,and theyappreciated the temple's location,between their enclave andthe nations of evil which lay to the west,across the sea.As-tramal conferred with the leaders of the faerie tribe and con-vinced them that his dreams were indeed visions of aforebodingfuture.The elves,impressed with the seriousness of this appar-ent threat—not only to the temple,but to the elves'continuedexistence-agreed that they would craft a sword of highestquality and enchant it with the most powerful abilities theirwizards could conjure up. Astramal returned to the temple and toldhis anxious brotherstogo about theirusual tasks.The elves'work would take weeks,perhaps months,to complete,and the priest's second vision hadsuggestedto him that it would be years before he would encoun-ter the paladin who would later vanquish the demon. As it turned out,more than threeyears came and went beforeAstramal heard from the elves again.Many times he was on theverge of setting out for the elves'enclave again,to see what hadhappened,even at the risk of annoying the faerie folk.He worriedmore and more;his hair became more silvery,his brow morefurrowed,and he began to look like the old man in his secondvision.He prayed for enlightenment,and was rewarded with thewisdom and willpower to wait faithfully.Then,one day the sen-tries at the temple gate were accosted by an entourage of grayelves seeking an audience with Astramal.The high priest re-ceived them at once,and was promptly presented with theawesome result of the elves'efforts:a mighty,magical swordthe elves called Fedifensor,or "Defender of the Faith." The master smith who forged the blade was in the travelingparty to make the presentation himself."This is my greatestcreation,"he told Astramal."It
