The Grevald family carries the curse of lycanthropy, passed down through generations. Their son, Jack, was born with it and transformed into a werewolf during full moons. His father struck him down during a celestial event, using their family’s silver axe.

Information

The Moon
Ankyaro, Dromaria’s largest moon, has vanished, making werecreatures feel the effects of the full moon every night. If the event is no longer happening, the cemetery mimics this effect.   Lycanthropy
Only Jack can spread the curse. Humanoids bitten by him must succeed on a DC 12 CON save. See Monster Manual for lycanthropy rules.   Jack
Jack was a teenager who loved riding horses and Rockfall. He was one year away from joining the Civil Legion.   Teeth
Malcolm Grevald doesn’t know where the axe came from, but it has been in the family for six generations.   Kra’Zeer Cemetary
Named after the first kings of Ania. The gravekeeper, Aesop Telis, was present but drunk during the family’s visit and refused to speak of it.

The Emerald Wood

---

Aesop Telis (human, male) got drunk and dug up a grave that was making noise. Things were fine till he got bit.     On the path to Dondarian, Aesop is locked in a fight against 1x undead dire wolf. If others engage, 2x undead dire wolves will emerge from the shadows to join the fight.   Aesop has 10 hp, 12 AC, and a shovel (club). He is already bitten and failed his save. At night, he turns into a werewolf and flees to join Jack. He is willing to be restrained. See reward.   Knows the graveyard. Jack dug up three other graves.

Shrine of Daruun

---

The adventurers find a weathered shrine dedicated to Daruun, god of agriculture, hearth, and spring. The symbols etched into the stone speak of celestial cycles and there is an offering plate.     DC 12 Nature. The moon’s influence is stronger when invisible.   DC 12 Religion. The offering plate requires seeds. If an offering is made, participants can see the moon with clarity the next night.

Graveyard

---

Jack is surrounded by freshly turned undead from the graves. While here, his power is amplified when he has sight of the sky.     1x Undead Werewolf (Dire Wolf) & 3x Undead Dire Wolves   Jack can only be killed by silvered weapons. If reduced to 0 hp by other means, Jack instead drops to 1 hp and reverts to his human form. He resumes his wolf form at 29 hp on the next turn. Jack will target animal companions and familiars first, driven by instinct. If slain more than once he will flee toward the city.   Veiled Moon. While Jack has a clear view of the sky he gains an extra action on his turn and 30 ft. extra movement.

Rewards

---

If Aesop survives he will reward the characters with a Soul Charm. If he is cured of his affliction he instead offers a Soul Reliquary.   The graves contain 50 gp worth of jewelry and a Ring of Jumping.   If successful the eldest Grevald child will paint a picture of the characters to hang on the inn wall.

Teeth

---

Weapon (handaxe), uncommon (attunement, special)   This handaxe is crafted from the carved tooth of a massive, unidentified creature. Metal inlays run along the blade, and it is considered silvered.   The wielder gains advantage on saving throws against contracting lycanthropy.   When attuned to Teeth, a cursed creature can prevent itself from changing into a lycanthrope during the full moon.
