Mystaran Campaign: The Scrolls of Nightfall

 

Buried in a cave in the Sea of Desolation west of the Sind are the Scrolls of Nightfall.

These are a collection of notes scribed on the intestines of a lesser Night Dragon on how to identify a Night Dragon.

The user may light any one of the two scrolls on fire creating a burning Torch which will cause any Night Dragon within one hundred and twenty feet to cast a shadow that is in the true form of the night dragon irrespective of the form in which it is currently disguised. The Night Dragon will be trapped in that form for twenty four hours even if they flee the range of the illumination of the burning scroll.

The Scroll will burn for twenty four hours. A Lesser Night Dragon will be compelled to attack the bearer of the Burning Scroll until either the Dragon or the Scroll-bearer is dead.
