Need something to tie together all them dungeon hacking, tresure stealing games of Warhammer Quest? Then how about some of the following ideas to really spice up them Quest adventures! These adventure ideas were written by Vincent Coffey for the Warhammer Quest Digest, reprinted here in all their glory!

The Kislevite Vampire

In the Bleak and Icy lands of Kislev, the subjects of the Czarina Katarin are not unfamiliar with the threat and contention of the vampire families (the carstein's are a PERFECT GW example) which lay hidden and sequestered in their fortresses in areas less travelled. When the Kislevites find a stronghold or coven of vampires, the populace are often rallied into inestimable fury, for not all those who vanish on the tundra died of cold, and not all Kislevite dead rest in peace... the people know it is the vampires who are to blame for the unspoken predation on thier people... and their fear to dwell unaccompanied outside after dark.

Such is the case with the Keep of the Baron Vladimir Keshur'gen, long ago the arable lands of his feifdom were swallowed by the icy wastes that rolled in from the north, and the peasants fled the domain rather than face starvation... for quite a long time the keep was fancied abandoned, the Baron never moved onto new lands, but rumors spread that a chaos warband raiding from the north came and put him and his retinue to the sword. Time would tell that the fate of Keshur'gen was not that simple...

In the years following, the neighboring Settlement of Karnov people began to face people inexplicably dissappearing with frightening frequency, and the town started to become sick and suspicious as the disappearances persisted. Talks amoung the villagers of mysterious strangers whose faces they could not

place raced through the taverns, and eventually though the town hall...neighborhood watches were organized... and as suspected, a vampire was caught feeding on a hapless craftsman during the dead of night, and an abandoned barn beyond the outskirts of town was discovered to have over thirty-five corpses slowly rotting under the snow-caked bales of hay. The vampire, which fled mocking his assailents, was none other than a nightmarish parody of Vlad Kishur'gen, obviously fallen to the siring of some dread vampire, and rapidly become a threat to the Kislevites he once protected with his honor.

As was expected, the Kislevites from all the surrounding villages rallied to the infrequent but neccesary duty of doing away with the foul spawn of the undead... the castle of Baron Kishirgen, now become a dreaded nesting of evil, was marched upon by a small army of Kislevite soldiers and a veritable horde of commoners... The minions of the vampire put up token resistence before they were overwhelmed by numbers, and the castle was burned to the ground. Satisfied, the mob disbanded, but the disappearances did not cease in the weeks to come... They in fact persisted with greater frequency with even more brazen and hideous cruelty to the victims. A brave band of Kislevite scouts has returned from the ruins of the castle to report that although the castle is truly razed, the dungeons below still reek with the stench of evil and decay... Fearing the wrath of the Baron's reprisals, and lacking the courage to organize and face the terror of Kishur'gen's minions again, the adventurers are begged by the elder-judges of Karnov to descend into the Barrows of the Vampire and purge him once and for all.
