In darkness we stride

I'm not sure yet how to clasify this map I'm working on.

The story
The kingdom of Valinor (not related to LOTR, just dig the name) is menaced by a dark organization, The Cult of the Heretics, which succeeded in bringing an avatar of Omor the Titan of Death back into this plane of existence. Omor brought with him an entire host of demons who now scourge the lands. Also, the cult has infiltrated most of the vanguards of the realm of Valinor and declared quarantine throughout the kingdom to stop the main defence forces from interfering with the onslaught. All answers lay in betrayal...

Featurette
Up to 4 players must chose their own character and unravel the mysteries inside their own ranks by a certain quest chain. Each character must find a unique artefact and escape the city they're sealed in to band up with the rest of the players and confront the shadow of Omor.
