The story is, that loooong while back, on the mainland, Fenris (and a few other travelers that would take too long to explain) came face to face with a razed village, everything destroyed, purged, stripped or killed. Puzzled by the fact that no gold or food had been stolen, the group spent some time looking into the matter, eventually gleaning from reluctant sources that a horrible race had been accidentally released from a dwarf establishment that was designed to keep said race under control. By going to the location of the prison and delving into its cramped underground depths, they were discovered to be the dark spawn known as Wyrmmcreed. The Wyrmm are partially humanoid monstrosities that could only reproduce in the grotesque manner of consuming a host and altering their bodily structure into a cocoon-like egg which matures until it gains consciousness and the insatiable desire to consume more victims
They have membranes stretched over their bodies that absorb energy for sustenance. They can burrow and slide through the hardest ground like water, so digging is their main transportation. Their bone-structures beneath the membrane are altered drastically to allow for many more rows of teeth, a massive mouth that is situated atop their bodies, as well as a more tube-like, thicker and flexible appearance.
Fenris was able to fight them back and seal them into their original prison, losing many a friend and his own left ear (Healed in a later RP) The prison was massive dwarf-built stone box which was sealed tight.
The catch : One escaped, and held a serious grudge. Over a period of a few years, it tracked him, unable to catch him up until he settled down in one place long enough... Nasmara.
The zombies buried beneath the ground on the island would provide a veritable feast of hosts for the Wyrmm, as their arcane magic can convert dead creatures into their eggs as well, given enough time, as their magic is arcane and dull, but powerful when used slowly. No one could know how long the evil has been crawling around beneath the skin of the island except the island its self.
This plot I propose be played out IC, full of danger, action, adventure, nightmare, and eventually a heroic solution.
