The Treasure Hunters…
As the player characters are travelling through any marsh, woodland or wasteland area, they reach an old and much overgrown graveyard, glimpsing beyond this what seems to be a barrow mound from an ancient time. There are two figures in the graveyard. They are digging in a grave, and there is evidence that other graves have been dug up already…
This pair is Grob and Tuko.
Grob is clearly a soldier, tall, imposing, chainmail and well-worn clothes. A heavy sword, a short sword, and a helm, all within close reach. He is currently two foot down in a grave, still digging.
Tuko Damu is heavily built, and looks like a monk, hair lacquered into a top knot, wearing a robe and sandals, but he too has weapons close at hand and is leaning on a shovel, offering advice.
Grob and Tuko are adventurers and, having heard tell of a great treasure hidden by a wizard, they are here looking for it.
Someone may wish to suggest the barrow is a better location for a mighty wizard’s treasure.
