Product Blurb "The storm-stuff is not matter as we know it, and beyond Immortal control," the Hierarch sighs, "I fear we are doomed." It appeared only a few weeks ago — a swirling gray mass of incalculable size. And in its center, an eye. A humanoid eye. Now the storm threatens the very era of Immortal rule. The growing maelstrom emits a message to the Hierarchs. But what does it mean? Can it help save this realm of existence? Is there time to save this realm? This first Immortal adventure pits your party against the multiverse in a desperate struggle to find the essence of life. This adventure is nothing like you've ever played before.

Plot SummaryEdit

The Immortal Storm is a scenario for novice Immortal-level characters. Immortals from the five spheres of power (matter, energy, thought, time, and entropy) must stop a cosmic storm. To do so, the characters must quest through the planes to obtain the Key to Eternity. A supernatural storm threatens the entire multiverse. Mysteriously, a supernatural eye sits in the center of the storm watching the Hierarchs, who cannot dissipate the storm. Nix, the Hierarch of Entropy, wants the player characters' help to rid the multiverse of the malignant maelstrom that threatens all of space and time. At last, the eye gives the Hierarchs a puzzle, which they use to test the player characters to determine their fitness for the mission. By solving the puzzle, characters learn their roles in the quest. Having solved the puzzle themselves, the Hierarchs impart this knowledge to characters regardless of their performance. The party then seeks necessary items in the planes; searches in New York and Chicago precede the climax. When the Immortals visit the plane of technology, their powers cannot help them. At the conclusion, the characters guard the Hierarchs as they destroy the storm.
