Hexcrawl 114 - Grave Matters in Llorkh

In the seedy town of Llorkh, Neville accepts a job to try to steal an ornate sarcophagus from an embalming house run by the Grave Men, a group of smugglers. Flip, Kain, and Lysander accompany him to surveil the place, but first they tangle with a bunch of dancing beggars led by a piper with an unusual head. Once there, Lysander gets drunk on addictive hyacinth wine, then he and Neville infiltrate; but Lysander blows up the front room with Shatter and kills a smuggler, so they flee into the night, pursued by a strange skeleton-man. The following day, they come disguised first as town watch, then later as bounty-hunters with Lysander in tow. While Lysander is in the attic getting harshly questioned by the skeleton man Chakkralka, Flip and Neville find the sarcophagus in the basement and manage to escape with it. Lysander and Kain escape by jumping out a window, and Flip finally gets a wild magic surge while casting Feather Fall on Lysander. Based on the DCC Lankhmar adventure "Grave Matters" by Michael Curtis.
