Gallimora’s Curse

Intro Gallimora’s life began in darkness. Abandoned by her family, she was cast into a deep, empty well to die in silence. But death didn’t claim her. Instead, a colony of spiders, both large and small, found and raised her. Over time, the darkness twisted her into something terrifying and beautiful—healthy, strong, and resilient. Spider-like limbs grew from her back, and the arachnids worshipped her as a queen, a goddess. Her power over them is absolute. She commands them with ease, her nails dripping with venom capable of felling the mightiest creatures with a single touch. The well she calls home has transformed into a dungeon—a labyrinth of webs, shadows, and monstrous arachnids. Some are small, others as large as elephants, their jaws hungry for blood. Gallimora feels no love for humanity. To her, they are little more than flies—fragile and insignificant. Though her presence is known, she is not feared like a distant monster. No, Gallimora is a nightmare, the kind that haunts even the bravest men’s sleep. The villagers near the pit speak of her in terror, hiring adventurers and mercenaries to venture into the pit with hopes of ending her reign. But few return. Those that do speak of being hunted like prey, knowing their inevitable end. Gallimora sees them only as toys, and the dungeon, her domain. She waits deep within it, hidden behind thick walls of webs. Her arachnids are ever-watchful, ready to strike on her command, killing any who dare enter without hesitation. You, adventurer, mercenary, fool… have been hired by the village to slay Gallimora. You will face horrors unlike any you’ve known, and it may very well be your last journey. The pit is her domain, and within it, death is a certainty. Choose your name, class, and weapon… for it may be your final decision.
