A half-orc shaman and his extraplanar friends
-
"The very shadow of the lamp post sprang alive." This is how the story usually begins that the poor and haunted peasants of Jiyyd recently swap over an ale. Each and everyone adds a new bit. Some speak of shadows crawling in with the night, passing through the wall and abducting all in their way. Others speak of how a group of adventurers found a half orc mage toying with shadows and how they chased him down, brutally flaying him to death. Others say the half orc lead them into a deadly trap, where half of their numbers died to poisonous gas. But it remains an undisputable truth that many dangerous creatures fought their way into the gates of Jiyyd and could only be brought down with the help of many of the brave folks currently present. Special thanks go to the few priests, once more the group of Sharessian, Uthgarian and Beshaban, who are rumored to have played a key roles in the defence. Of course, other rumors say that the ranger Constantin or the warrior Zoma made the essential difference. Among the creatures that entered Jiyyd's gates were not only shadow beasts, but also invisble things and winged creatures, none of which seemed easy to defeat. There's a rumor that says all this happened because one of the adventurer's took something from a chest that he should not have taken. Another rumor, however, says that the chest was only opened after Jiyyd was succesfully defended.
