The Earl of Condaster has always exercised his droit de seigneur but of late has stolen all of the girls in the village most recently Annabelle the prettiest girl in the village.

Party required to find the tomb of his ancestor, Ulf Thunderthews who defeated a monster 100's of years previously and founded the village.

At midnight (on Duesdays, W'nsdays, and Sundays) at the grave of Ulf Thunderthews, his ghost may appear and grant access to his 'tomb'. His tomb is a highly magical place and anything could be found there. Though much of that may have been due to the Wyrms Tooth which has since been removed.
