OK - we have several players signed up for the thread, but an apparent disparity in character level. If I remember correctly, both Azrael's and Morgeruat's characters from the original story are fairly high level. That being the case and given how difficult an opponent the Hunger is [it ate the power of the One Ring] we will probably need to adjust some of the lower level characters upward in power so that they have a decent chance of survival. Once we get clarity on the level of the game we can move ahead with the story.

I'll try and have this settled tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
OOC: absolutely correct, Sir Morguerat was about lvl 15 as a paladin (now fallen) he is around lvl 14 as a fighter (without benefits for starting as a fighter) dual classed to a lvl 3 sorceror.

When the darkness consumed him and stripped his purity of essence, the tained magic of Larry the Mad Modding Mage also infused in him, or perhaps it merely evoked that which was already there, with a certain ability for conjuring things, he knew not how it happened, but he was able to create minor magical effects, as his own abilities were lost to him, he felt no remorse in using his newfound skills with magic in his fight against evil, unfortunately armor, even his own highly magical plate is very disruptive to the flow of arcane energy, and so he bargained a favor or two from a group of elves he had aided as a servant of goodness and right in the past, and bartered his old armor for a specially constructed suit of elven chain, his old blade Crysomer would not answer his calls now, as his spirit no longer held the divine gift that marked him as a paladin, but he wore it on his back as a reminder that one day he would hopefully regain his lost abilities and divine favor. He uses a new sword that was a gift from one of his quests(his share of the loot, and he tithed every bit of it, but the church being amazed at the peity of the man, had returned the magical blade to him since he would take no other treasure and his own sword was useless to him. [i]OOC:Sir Morguerat is extremely bitter about his loss, viewing it as unjust, and frustrated that none of his efforts (including a quest spell combined with an atonement that ended very favorably for all involved) seem to have any effect on him or regaining his paladin status. he has become somewhat irrational, and is more easily upset than is probably good for him (or anyone near him). also his old sword was of limited usefullness to him at the end of the original adventure, he was able only to teleport himself from the stronghold of the Mage before it's powers abandoned him completely[i]
