Czech this out! The Graveyard at Zdar Nad Esmel! Another one shot I've been prepping after finding inspiration in pictures of an actual graveyard near the town of Zdar Nad Sazavou (Czech republic). I took some liberties. many liberties but I think it turned out great, especially as the sun sets!

According to actual local legend, a terrible ruler of the area named Ulrich was put to rest within the graveyard and his tomb filled with quicklime and poppy seeds to ensure that he did not rise again. Its said when the last seed buried with Ulrich sprouts he will return to wreak his vengeance upon the country side.

I've adapted both the bohemian design and the legend itself for my own Faerun based campaign. I purposefully loaded the whole area with as much vegetation as I could to give it the look as though all 80 gazillion seeds had indeed sprouted.

For ages the graveyard at the edge of the woods has sat abandoned. The only offerings left at the shrines are left out of habit as opposed to the respect or fear that motivated their construction. local Kids often head to the graveyard to spend the night in a sort of rite of passage. Aside from a few rattled tweens and some soiled pants, nothings ever come of it... Not until recently that is. Three of the town's young are now missing and folk talk of an eerie glowing mist rolling thorugh the edges of the forest.

the party must investigate, enter the tomb and save those kids! Maybe even put Ulrich back to bed. We'll see.
