3.5 Ravenloft / The Book of Souls

Rumors often presented itself that there was an old artifact that came from a place beyond the world. Legends around it were different and varied. The truth of the matter is there is a Book of Souls this item was created in the Blush of Creation, but it was also terribly cursed.

A cult sprung up around it's worship a group known simply as the Children of Immortality and the spanned many Domains within the Core. It is believed that the book possesses secrets of life and death and indeed the soul. Originally meant to be something helpful to the dying, a way to ease the ill. It was corrupted by a members of the Children that had grown dark. The book being used for darkness. This drew down upon the Cult, a great and grave curse. Details of the Curse is Unknown to any of the current members, it afflicts all members who join the Cult.

Seeking aid they called upon the powers of ....something. Was it angelic, demonic, elder thing or greater fey ? No one could actually say. What is known is that this being shattered the chains, broke the binding and sundered the book into parts. It was delivered into other Worlds in hope of keeping the book apart. It worked for many centuries though in the Core not so much time had passed.

A creature of darkness had been summoned into the Cult by a member who wished to break their curse. It manipulated the Cult, into giving it the portion of the book possessed by the Cult. It then set out to find other chapters.

Fearing what it might do the group summoned its benefactor who stood staunch against the darkness. Seeking people to bear chapters of the book to keep it from being in darkened hands.
