The Argent Coup
![]() |
You've accepted an offer you couldn't possibly refuse. The money was too good¸ the portents too strong¸ the knives were too sharp. Now¸ your troupe of adventurers find themselves deep in a dark abyssal palace¸ standing around demonic altars and scrutinizing idols and fetishes not meant for mortal eyes. With a flourish¸ your apparent host enters¸ a dark cavalcade of royalty and corruption. Here stands before you the six fingered Dark Lord of the Abyss¸ chieftain of chaos¸ despot of demonkind. He reveals you've been hired¸ most certainly at knifepoint¸ for a very lucrative mission. The Dark Lord has cornered¸ through no small feat¸ each of his demonic rivals in their lairs for a short while. You¸ he congratulates¸ have been chosen to SLAY THEM ALL IN HIS NAME and usher in a glorious new age of darkness. Fail in this task and you're damned to eternal torment. Succeed and the troupe will be elevated in dark glory beyond all others in his immortal service. With that¸ they bless your weapons with red vigor¸ and the Dark Lord departs you to figure out the details. Good luck¸ if you're going to survive¸ you're going to need it!
