Since then, Hightower has served as a landmark for travelers in the know, but it has otherwise been largely forgotten. An enterprising group of tomb robbers once dug an access shaft from the top of the tor down into the tombs, but its members did not leave Hightower alive, and only small rodents and vermin have used the shaft since.  \nBut the electrical storms that have plagued the area in recent days have been quite severe, and a few weeks ago, a stray lightning bolt broke open the stone seal. A few humanoids have since wandered into the tor, and the ancient bugbear warrior buried in the lowest crypt has risen as a zombie to deal with these intruders.  \nTonight, yet another terrible storm is sweeping through the wilderness, driving all creatures to take shelter where they can find it. Hightower looms on the horizon, and its door is no longer blocked. Will the PCs dare to enter its silent halls?  \n ADVENTURE SYNOPSIS  \nThe characters take shelter inside a hollowed-out tor during a violent storm. While they are camped in the outer chamber, the storm breaks open one of the inner doors, allowing access to the humanoid tombs within  \nthe tor. After defeating the various monsters that have taken up residence there and the hobgoblin raiders who intend to make the tor their new base, the PCs encounter the Dark Knight himself—a hobgoblin zombie interred in the tor’s deepest chamber.  \n ADVENTURE HOOKS  \nAs DM, you know best how to involve your PCs in an adventure. In this case, the simplest hook is that the PCs are driven to seek shelter in Hightower because of a storm. Using this technique offers a means of getting the PCs together for the first time if need be, since they need not be traveling together before the adventure begins. Since Hightower is clearly visible for miles, characters may even be going in different directions before the storm hits.  \nIfa random gathering to escape a storm doesn’t work for your campaign, you can use one of the following suggestions to draw them into the action.  \n• The PCs have been asked to scout out Hightower to see whether any groups of humanoids have begun using it as a fortification again.  \n• The characters found a map showing Hightower and its environs on the body of a brigand or in an old chest.  \n• A wealthy patron has hired the PCs to recover a family heirloom thought to have been interred with a long-dead ancestor in Hightower.  \npqqqqrs  \nSTORM-PEACE  \nThe custom of storm-peace evolved long ago in response to the sudden and severe storms that plague this area. All characters native to the region should already be aware of it. If you plan to use the concept of storm-peace in this adventure, be sure to explain it to the players before beginning play. The basic concept is that an automatic truce exists between all individuals and groups who seek shelter in neutral territory during a lightning storm. Such weather is simply too dangerous for fighting, regardless of people’s feelings toward one other.  \nStorm-peace is assumed to be in effect unless someone specifically rejects it. Even so, whenever two strangers meet during a lightning storm, they often greet one another by asking “Storm-peace?”simply to ensure that the other knows and respects the tradition.  \nStorm-peace applies to any thinking humanoid, though not necessarily to other creatures. Many people assume, however, that it applies to any creature able to ask for it, and many legends tell of bards singing songs to dragons or other dangerous monsters during a storm-peace. Any character who makes a successful DC 15 Knowledge (arcana) check knows and can repeat at least one or two such legends.  \nStorm-peace is not a critical concept for this adventure, and you can certainly run th","cbCaip1LsVw7xMcm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip1LsVw7xMcm","pdf",409603,"English","# Adventure Synopsis\n## Adventure Hooks\n## Storm-Peace\n## Beginning the Adventure\n### The Storm\n### Hightower","[{\"question\":\"What is storm-peace and how does it affect encounters?\",\"answer\":\"Storm-peace is a long-established tradition: an automatic truce exists when thinking humanoids seek neutral territory shelter during lightning storms.
