Overview

Bear Claw Village is the home of a small tribe of Wood Elves who live peacefully with the forest. Everyone in the village has contracted a blight plant disease called 'Shuteye' that causes its victims to fall asleep. The disease is contracted by eating blueberries from an affected blueberry bush found to the north.

The blight started because the evil wizard, Kelek, dropped a powerful sleeping potion at the base of the blueberry bush, which seeped into the plant's roots and affected the blueberries.

Kelek did it because he was annoyed that the Wood Elves were always laughing, singing, and living happily-so he poured his sleeping potion into the blueberry bush to make the whole village fall asleep. Kelek believes the forest should be perfect and orderly, not wild and joyful. He thinks the elves are "too noisy and chaotic," so he tried to "fix" things by putting them all to sleep.
"If everyone is asleep... no one can bother me ever again."
"A quiet forest is a perfect forest."

The players must destroy the source of the sickness as well as find the herbs necessary to make a cure.
