Neverwinter

Foundry Contest: The Drowned Shore

By Andy (StrumSlinger) | Sat 27 Feb 2016 10:00:00 AM PST

The Foundry Community had a contest to revisit the first zone of the Elemental Evil Module, "The Drowned Shore", and redesign it as they saw fit. 

The Drowned Shore
"... But this relative peace was recently shattered when a powerful tidal wave struck the shore at Raven Cliff Beach, destroying the lighthouses and seemingly annihilating the Neverwinter Guard stationed there. In the wake of the disaster a host of aquatic monsters swarmed ashore, driving back the Emerald Enclave’s forces and evicting the dwarves from the mine. Led by hideous sea hags, an army of aquatic trolls and lizardfolk soon established themselves in Blackdagger Keep, proving to be a far deadlier threat then the bandits that preceded them. It wasn't long before Harper and Emerald Enclave scouts began to report the presence of a group of strange cultists moving freely among the aquatic monsters. This collection of sailors, pirates, and rogues devoted to the evil Elemental Princess, Olhydra, quickly proved to be behind the aquatic invasion. Clearly, the tidal wave that struck the coast was no random natural occurrence and if this cult wields such deadly power they must be stopped before they unleash it again. ..." - Scott Crawford

Short Code: NW-DH4XKQXPU
Description:
As you are wandering through Neverwinter, you notice a small piece of paper blown by the wind directly into your chest.
You brush it off, and it flits about and slaps right back into your chest. You notice there is some writing on the paper.
As you read, you notice it is addressed to you. Sage Ramiel would like to meet with you at the HQ for the war effort in the Drowned Shore region. Upon finishing reading the note, it disintegrates into small sparkles of green and gold.
