Trail of the Devastator

 


Trail of the Devastator is a Savage Worlds adventure for 3 to 5 characters and is set in the fantasy world of Tysaan. Though the necessary character ranks to survive this adventure vary by the equipment and size of the party, a Veteran party should be considered, as the Devastator is rather nasty.

 

Here is a PDF version of this adventure: Trail of the Devastator

 

Adventure Background

Ages passed, the master magician, Rael-Vin, spent her life in the constant quest for magical knowledge. In her waning years, Rael-Vin’s travels took her to the outer planes. While investigating rumors of new and more powerful enchantments in the Wildlands, she uncovered a plot by the Infernals to use those of the animal realm in their fight against the hated demons. Rael-Vin stood with the animal lords and their minions against the devils, and though they were victorious, Rael-Vin was captured by the infernal commander and taken back to the Nine Hells. Here she endured tortures beyond what any mortal was meant to endure, tortures that broke her mind, body and spirit. His attentions complete, the infernal commander transformed the arch-mage into an Infernal Hydra and transported her back to Rael-Vin’s homeworld, Tysaan. Here he set the creature to task finding one of the key artifacts that the Infernals needed to open a permanent portal to the virgin world. Rael-Vin, in her hydra form, has little of her past conscious mind, though she retains a keen intelligence that sets her apart from others of her kind. Now called Devastator, the hydra has gathered a motley band of trolls, salamanders and other monsters and set them to searching for clues about the greatest infernal artifact of all time: The Balor's Skull.

 

Synopsis

Having few resources and few skills other than Action!â„¢, the characters find themselves in the Broken Hills determining the fate of Fort Durgin, a sizable garrison whose duties include manning various watchtowers against Brushnab clan incursions. Finding the fort melted to slag and excavated, the group is set upon by a raiding party of trolls devoted to a creature called the Devastator

 

Tracking the trolls’ movement across the Broken Hills, they encounter a troop of Knights of the Coin beset by a horde of warriors calling themselves the Bleakmen. Information gained here leads them to the creature's lair where they find that the Devastator is not a mindless beast, but an infernal agent seeking the fabled Balor's Skull.
