Lady Lareessa was a famous paladin who fell in battle against an undead horde. After her death, she was interred in a sword-shaped tomb. Recently, an evil force desecrated the tomb, and now she roams the previously sacred halls.

Background

Lady Lareessa of the Jagged Mountains was a renowned paladin, celebrated for her unyielding struggle against necromancy and the Undead. After her heroic death half a century ago, she was laid to rest in a half-underground tomb shaped after her trusty sword, Light’s Justice—a weapon rumored to have enhanced her paladin abilities. Her shield, Dawnward, was interred alongside her, symbolizing her eternal vigilance. Her squire, Reinald Ashwyke, and her loyal steed, Silvermane, died at her side and were also interred in the tomb.

A small detachment of the Veilbound Fellowship (a worldwide, cross-confessional organization dedicated to protecting places of eternal rest from necromancy and grave robbing) tended the tomb and the surrounding grounds, accepting pilgrims who came to pay their respects to the fallen paladin. However, a few days ago, an evil force desecrated the tomb, and now an Undead Lady Lareessa, a cruel mockery of her former self, roams the previously hallowed halls. Her new form is too weak to leave the tomb, but it's only a matter of time before she gains the strength to break free and wreak havoc in the region.
