The Cauldron of Plenty
From the magazine: "'That's right," said the druid. "You must steal the giant's cauldron - without harming him in the slightest.'"
The adventurers are sent on a mission to reclaim the legendary Cauldron of Plenty for a celtic inspired kingdom. This magic item is kept by an intelligent Verbeeg called the Bolg Mor.
A secondary goal is to discover the command words for the cauldron in the cave system.
There is a curse on the cauldron, stating that violence breeds violence; he who slays the owner of the cauldron and steals the device will also fall prey to acts of violence. Players are encouraged to attempt to roleplay and negotiate with the villain to gain the cauldron.
