Beware the Yule Cat (2E)

Beware the Yule Cat


You all know the cat of Christmas -- that cat was huge and fat. No one knew where he came from nor where he was at.

Night is falling across the frozen plains of the Northlands. It's Yule Eve, but you're tired, hungry, and footsore. Ahead lies the village of K?ldhorn -- Cold Corners in the Common tongue -- where you are sure to find warmth, food, and shelter, especially on this festive night. But upon arrival you find the streets deserted, and the villagers hidden behind locked doors. Soon, you realize that you've inadvertently found yourselves in the middle of a generations-long struggle between the people of Cold Corners and the evil fae troll Gr?la, her husband Leppal??i, their sons the mischievous J?lasveinar -- or Yule Lads -- and worst of all her favorite pet, the fierce J?lak?tturinn, better known as the Yule Cat.

A Village in Peril


He opened his glowering eyes wide, each like a burning gem -- It wasn't for the faint of heart to face them.

Inspired by the beloved works of Icelandic poet J?hannes ?r K?tlum, Beware the Yule Cat is a holiday-themed adventure . As the adventurers face the wrath of the ferocious Yule Cat, they must also deal with the cruel pranks of the Yule Lads, who are determined to spoil Yule for everyone. Things go from bad to worse when the party discovers that the J?lasveinar have kidnapped the mayor's infant son, and taken him to their lair on nearby Snow Mountain, possibly bound for Gr?la's stewpot! K?ldhorn seems bound for a cold, dark Yuletide, but the adventurers may have a chance to make it merry for all.

Fire and Ice


He roamed, fierce and famished, in freezing Christmas snow, chilling every human heart, both high and low.
