My group has been investigating a murder and their own involvement as scapegoats for the act itself, trying to identify and locate the person responsible.
My idea is that the person (known to my players only as The Reverend) is the high priest(ess) of a former, now considered dead, god(dess) of death, trying conduct a ritual to revive the deity. The players probably won't come into blows with The Reverend him-/herself anytime soon, as I figure (s)he might be of quite high level, while the group is still at around 3rd-4th level, so I think it more likely they would encounter a (level-appropriate) sub-ordinate.
The adventure should include a fair share of undead and undeath worshiping cultists, but anything that fits the locales are fine. The adventure takes place in an abandoned district of a very old city, with the majority of it underground in the ruins of an older city.
Anything beyond that is still just a mass without form.
Oh, and it would be ideal if the players would reach 5th level by the end.
All help is welcome!
