Old Sepulcher Road
Old Sepulcher Road cuts through Vargovishta Pass in the Karthax Mountains, stretching from Hemlock Hollow to the Silent Forest.
• The road is the hunting ground of the Bloody Bishop, a dullahan searching for his severed head.
• In life, the Bloody Bishop was a defrocked priest turned bandit who offered his victims no mercy.
• When he was captured by a local militia, he was tortured and decapitated—as an undead rider astride an undead steed, he continues to terrorize the living.
The Seven Citadels
Seven tribes of heathen savages live within the Silent Forest. Each barbarous tribe’s territory centers around a tower of black stone that they both fear and protect from adventurers who wish to plunder the relics and ancient treasures within them.
• The members of barbaric tribes decorate their skin with swirls of blue pigment; they practice cannibalism and ritual human sacrifice.
• The tribes’ territories encircle the black citadels, but even the most foolhardy tribal members never venture inside them to explore.
• Each citadel is the prison of one of the Fallen Lords—witch queens and princely warlocks who now exist only as shadowy wraiths lost to madness and despair.
