Deep within a natural cavern formed from the roots of a megadendric tree, sunk into a pool of crystal water, your adventurers have spotted the unmistakable glint of Gromril—a rare and valuable metal used by the Dwarfs. The chest, locked and untouched by time, promises untold treasures. However there have been scaled shapes spotted lurking within the water, and the more wizened of adventurers have pointed out the upturned spike-roots of 'Bear-trap Mangroves' -
what in Sigmar is that name- near the entrance. Moving what appears to be a half-ton chest -not even to mention the contents- out of this cavern will be a perilous endeavour.

Your scouting adventurers located this potential prize almost three days travel south, deep into the soft soil of the amaxon's broad flood-forest, in a place that hunters had come back from after reporting hoots and voices in the dark woods.
There the adventurers found -in the midst of a shallow mangrove lagoon- a fallen behemoth, The titanic carapace and scales of an Ancient Bastiladon -a true titan, in life it would have been able to swing that club-tail over the roof of a bunk-house-, all still glossy and firm against the ravages of time.
Yet sadly not against the ravages of greenskins, for the adventurers also reported a small savage orc tribe having taken up residence nearby the beast, slowly carving out bones and pains-takingly hewing the ancient cadaver's carapace with axes as they try to remake the beast into an armory. Surely those bones and the seemingly rot-immune carapace could be better served in Your possession, for at least you would give the giant beast's remains some profitable dignity.
Primary Role: Martial
