A downloadable Fellowship set piece

Colossus Coleen was once one of the giant dynasts who ruled the world in ancient times. She was famed among them for her girth, which made her an unmatched opponent in the sport of Giant Wrestling—a game that the little folk of the world considered more natural disaster than diversion. When the time of giants waned, like many dynasts, Coleen chose to go to sleep, waiting for a the moment when the giants would rise again.

It has been millennia since then. Coleen, like the other giant dynasts, has passed into legend. Only the locals in the village of Colossus Hill still tell tales of her exploits. Indeed, they claim that Colossus Hill is Coleen herself, now the Hill Queen, covered by soil and plant growth in her many years’ slumber.

What draws travellers to this out of the way village backed up against a tall sloping hill is the magnificent fort that stands at the hill’s summit. A circular wall with four evenly spaced towers, all made of gold and intricately carved with reliefs depicting forgotten tales of the giant dynasts. Why the fort remains unoccupied despite centuries of prominence and many attempts by adventurers to claim it is a question many would-be conquerors of the hill neglect to consider.

The locals know, but the elders, who remember the last group of fools who tried to take the golden castle, shudder at the very mention. “Best to stay away from that place,” they say. “Admire from afar. Do not try to best the Hill Queen.”

This is a set piece adventure for Vel Mini's Fellowship. Made in response to @diwataMANILA's TTRPG #promptober.
