All That Glitters
 |
The gold in the town of Taurum is disappearing. Precious family heirlooms and unsecured savings vanish overnight without a trace. The culprit¸ unbeknownst to most of the town¸ is a rare creature indeed: a gold elemental. Small and decades young¸ its ravenous craving to gather more of its namesake is more than enough to ruin a small community like this one. Worse still¸ local legend says a statue in town wears a gold symbol upon its chest that must never be removed. They say a powerful paladin trapped an evil force more than 250 years ago¸ and citizens fear that evil will reemerge if the sacred place is disturbed.
All That Glitters is a Q-Encounter¸ or Quick-Encounter¸ that can be run for a group of four to six players with 17th-level characters. This encounter would be considered a 'medium' to 'hard' encounter.
Q-Encounters are designed to drop into your game where needed. They are meant to add flavor to a campaign¸ giving a little depth to a combat encounter.
