"WHERE'S THE GOLD?" the rogue's screech echoed across the stone walls of an empty vault. Of all things, she had expected killing a lich to be worth the trouble in terms of monetary compensation, but her hopes were slowly being eroded with each dusty bag she flipped inside out. 

The paladin me...

Bog Stalker [LINKS]

Lurkers in the Murky Waters

Amongst the many dangers of marshy habitats, few strike fear into the hearts of travelers like a Bog Stalker; a patient and ruthless killer that strikes when least expected.

In a frenzied cacophony of carnivorous carnage, the blue waters are quickly dyed red as sailors fall from the deck to be shredded by claw and fang. As quickly ...

Twinmoon Glaive [LINKS]

Weapon (glaive / whip), uncommon

The moon is an ever-present symbol to all who know the power it has over man and beast alike. Those who live by the shore believe its power only grows when reflected on the water’s surface. Perhaps the calm seas show us not a simple reflection, but another world? Is the reflection a dream of beings beyond our own, or are we the dream...

Blooming Gunlash [LINKS]

Weapon (revolver / flail), rare

A true Hunter of Beasts is marked by their prowess in both melee and ranged combat.
