Proposal: Obsidian Skulls - Tombs
-
BACKGROUND
The Obsidian Skulls noted during the Misrim contract that several undead were present and behaving strangely. They attacked fiends and were digging compulsively. A tomb was found but not explored.
The council is busy with other things. House Iverlesk is tirelessly working to ensure orderly leadership and to ensure we are stocked with dismissal rods to deal with the fiend problem.
The natural choice is for the Obsidian Skulls to receive a contract to guard tombs in the Kingdom of Arabel, and destroy those of use to the Bloody Baron.
CONTRACT
-
All noble houses and landed gentry shall send information on relevant familial tombs to be guarded. These shall be sent to the Obsidian Skulls, and the Obsidian Skulls shall provide two sentries to guard the tomb 24/7. Compensation, widow payments, shall be made to the Obsidian Skulls in the event of employment-related injury or death.
-
Any tomb discovered, whose details has not provided to the Obsidian Skulls, shall be destroyed. Any noble house that never notified the Obsidian Skulls forgoes any compensation claims to incidental damage on property or remains.
-
Any tomb deemed to much of a risk shall be destroyed, with approval from the Crown. Reasonable efforts shall be made to retrieve sentimental possessions or remains.
-
The Obsidian Skulls shall endeavour to destroy all tombs within the Tilverton shire. These shall be destroyed, sabotaged, or repurposed in the fight against the Bloody Baron. Noble houses affected shall contact the Obsidian Skulls for high priority remains and/or possessions to be extracted.
-
The Crown shall retain a veto on any tomb earmarked for destruction.
-
-
This is a moronic idea, The only reason I see you would wish to know where noble tombs are is if you are wishing to animate remains.

A strange accusation from the man who omitted the the entire fact we came across undead acting strangely and a mysterious tomb in the forests around Tilverton in his "classified report"? I doubt necromancy is your motivation, profit almost certainly.
I realise dealing with the undead might not allow us to sell dismissal wands. The undead are the main threat considering two-bit dismissal wands make the fiends go away.
The tombs need to be guarded, and those around Tilverton destroyed. Perhaps to get Iverlesk on board, he can sell everyone a summon creature II wand, at an appropriate mark up. Maybe after selling one or two, he'll bore the council with a design for a summon creature II orb that other wizards can salivate over. When that runs its course, we can then discuss how to destroy the tombs properly.
The Obsidian Skulls just need an order to destroy the ones around Tilverton from the Crown. We'll leave the tombs around Arabel under the responsibility of Adrian Iverlesk, who will be liable for anything that goes wrong.
