The Hellfire Menace

The mad Lich, Voltaire the Eternal, is a horrifyingly powerful undead wizard bent on smothering the land in the destructive power of the Hellfire Blight. Too many times have his schemes been thwarted by his mortal enemies, the Champions of Radiance and their powerful companions. With the knowledge that he will never succeed in his grand design while noble heroes are forever knocking down his door, Voltaire has begun the Ritual that will unleash the fury of the lower planes upon the innocents of the realm, and set up a devastating series of traps and challenges to crush any who would interrupt him!

Time is limited, and the Champions of Radiance need your help to stop the Lich’s unholy schemes! As valiant allies against evil, they have trained you for a dark day such as this. You have stood with them against many great foes, but this next trial will demand more of you than you have ever had to give before! Can you protect your mentors against Voltaire the Eternal and his impossibly powerful foes, setting right the corruption the crazed villain has wrought upon the land? Or will you fall to unrelenting tide of evil as the world is ripped asunder?! Your destiny awaits within the dark caves ahead, but do not linger too long, heroes. The Hellfire Menace consumes the world even now, and waits for nothing!

Loranbee Stoneshucker (Fighter): Loranbee is the quintessential Dwarven Warrior. Her first priority is always to seek out the most dangerous enemy and draw its attention away from her weaker allies.
