Background
   While exploring the old barrows of the Trollhaunt, the troll-chieftain Skalmad discovered Moran’s Eye, a potent fomorian relic wielded by the first king of ancient Vardar. Lost for untold years, the Eye quickly corrupted the avaricious Skalmad, inspiring him to tear out his own eye in order to claim the relic’s full power. As it directed Skalmad’s ambition, the Eye showed him a portal to the Feywild in the heart of an ancient troll ruin known as the Great Warren. Within the Feywild, the Eye led the would-be troll king to a site of great power and
even greater evil—the Stone Cauldron. There, Skalmad’s plans for domination were born.
With the power of the Eye, Skalmad set about bringing the monsters of the Trollhaunt under his dominion. He saw himself as the founder of a new Vardar, establishing
a stronghold in the Great Warren. Under Skalmad’s leadership, the trolls of the Trollhaunt began to terrorize neighboring lands with a fury not seen in generations. Even as the depredations of the trolls grew worse, hope arrived along the frontier in the person of Etheran of Therund. With a band of heroic companions, Etheran was returning home after having defeated the operatives of a deadly cult in a far-off land.
   With troll warbands on the move, Etheran delayed his return home and established a base in the town of Moonstair, west of the Trollhaunt. He and his companions made three raids into the swamps, routing Skalmad’s forces before setting out on a fourth sortie to face the troll king. Three days later, a band of troll warriors appeared at the town gates, their leader issuing a challenge as he tossed Etheran’s head over the wall. “Your hero is dead, puny humans! Skalmad the Great killed him. Soon Skalmad,King of Vardar, will claim Moonstair and lands beyond, and all humans will die!” As the son of the baron of Therund, Etheran carried
the heirloom sword of the barony, a magic blade known as Sunwrath. The sword is now rumored to be a trophy of the troll king Skalmad. For the first time in centuries, the trolls are gathering for war, and Therund stands in their sights.

















Built among the ruins of the troll kingdom of Vardar, the town of Moonstair is a trade outpost that lies at the confluence of two rivers. The town’s most renowned feature is the Moon Door, a portal to the Feywild that opens when the moon is full and the sky is clear.

Geography: The peninsula on which Moonstair was built starts as rocky hills jutting up from the river at its westernmost tip. The western high ground is heavily settled, with the population thinning to the east as the ground slopes away. There, the town gives way to fertile farmland that borders the swamps of the Trollhaunt.

Population: Just over a thousand people live in and
around Moonstair. With the river serving as a natural protective barrier on two sides, the town has grown up rather than out, and multistory buildings are common. Situated as it is on a major trade route, Moonstair’s population fluctuates (sometimes drastically) depending on the number
of travelers passing through.

Government: Moonstair is led by a half-elf mayor,
Kelana Dhoram (see page xx). Her primary focus is in
maintaining the town’s prosperity through trade, and her
leadership is more about commerce than security. As a
result, the town watch is small and poorly equipped. The
monsters to the east have long been quiet, but Moonstair is
ill equipped to deal with the new power in the Trollhaunt.

1. The Moon Door
An island of stone juts from a stretch of white water
beyond the westernmost point of the town. Atop this crag
stands a wide ring of moss and flowering plants. Under
especially clear skies within a few nights of the full moon,
a portal opens to the Feywild. The Moon Door is reached
by traversing a series of smaller, rocky islets—the “moon
stair” for which the town is named.
This portal serves as a regular pathway between this
part of the natural world and the Feywild, specifically to
an eladrin castle-city on the other side.
Though the full moon approaches when the adventurers
arrive in Moonstair, heavy black clouds initially keep
the portal closed.


2. Moonstair Keep
This small keep is built upon Vardari ruins. Great slabs
of stone make up its foundation, with walls of stone
and mortar above. The mayor lives and works here,
and the barracks for the town watch (such as it is) are
located within.

3. Cloudwatch Inn
Operated by a halfling named Cham , the
Cloudwatch Inn offers the most luxurious accommodations
in town. Its clientele consists primarily of travelers
on the trade road or the rivers, and hopefuls waiting for a
chance to take the Moon Door to the Feywild. Either way,
bad weather is good for Cham’s business.


4. Temple
The temple here is small, but it features a few capable
ritual casters. The adventurers can have divination and
restoration rituals of up to 8th level performed for them
(including raise dead), with a Religion bonus of +12. Rituals
cost 20 percent over their normal cost. Once the adventurers
have demonstrated their intent to defend the town, this
premium is waived.
The most prominent shrines here are dedicated to
Sehanine, Melora, and Avandra. Sehanine’s whims are
said to control the operation of the Moon Door, while
Melora and Avandra protect those who pass through
Moonstair by road or water.

5. Ferry Landings
Trade caravans crossing from one side of the river to the
other must pass by ferry through Moonstair. The town
watch spends much of its time patrolling these landings,
keeping them secure.

6. Old Troll Wall
Dating from when these lands were part of the kingdom
of Vardar, this 20-foot-high wall is built from enormous
unmortared stones. Though sturdy, the moss-covered wall
has suffered neglect for untold years. In many places, gaps
and cracks are visible.

7. Rualiss’s Island
An eladrin emissary from the Feywild, Rualiss (page 6)
lives on this small island just a short boat ride from town.
The island is overgrown with thick trees and brush, concealing
Rualiss’s small stone house.

8. Outer Wall
When humans first settled this area, they turned the land
east of the Old Troll Wall into farmsteads. The outer wall
they built is not as thick as the Old Troll Wall, but it is in
better repair.

1. Moonstair
The town of Moonstair home base for this adventure. It becomes the target of a
raid by the forces of the self-proclaimed troll king, Skalmad,and it falls to the adventurers to defend the town and defeat the trolls.

2. Trade Road
This well-traveled road runs north and south, crossing the
river by way of the ferries at Moonstair. The road has traditionally
been safe, as long as you stay to its well-traveled
path. Travelers venture off the road at their own peril.
Moonstair’s trade and industry depend almost exclusively
on the movement of goods and people along the road.

3. Swamps
Much of the Trollhaunt consists of swamps and marshland
that is home to all manner of dangerous creatures. Traveling
through the swamps can be hazardous to those who
aren’t prepared for anything.

4. Forests
The patchy woodlands within the Trollhaunt are wet and
murky like the surrounding swamps. Wandering packs of
trolls make these groves their homes.

5. Western Ruin (Orrak)
This ruin is one of the many remnants of the ancient
troll kingdom of Vardar. A partially broken stone marked
with Giant runes identifies this as the town of Orrak.
Crumbled stone walls flank the remnants of a dirt road,
the area around it overgrown with tall grass, moss, and a
few scraggly trees.


7. Central Ruin (Bravak)

8. Forest Ruin (Trozad)
This small ruin is surrounded on all sides by forest, with
trees growing inside and through the buildings. One
crumbling structure has its door scribed with Giant runes
identifying it as the Hall of Trozad

9. Hills
These low hills rise out of the murky swamp, surrounded
on all sides by pools of stagnant water.

10. Trollhaunt Warrens
These warrens are the lair of the troll king Skalmad and
his followers. This series of interconnected tunnels and
caves has been repopulated by Skalmad and his eager
trolls.

11. Lake Kador
This cold and murky lake teems with life. The area nearest
the lakeside ruin is strewn with the bones of animals and
sentient creatures alike, all recent kills made by the area’s
hungry and dangerous predators.

12. Lakeside Ruin
(Kadorhak)
The largest aboveground ruin in the Trollhaunt sits at
the edge of Lake Kador. Much of this ruin is flooded with
murky water. Most of its buildings have been leveled to the
foundations, though a few shattered walls still stand. In
several places, the name of the town is written in Davek as
Kadorhak.


13. Unholy Crag
This jagged stone isle rises from the brackish surface of
the lake.
