An ancient cult of maniacal dragon worshipers known as Serpens Sanguis once dwelled deep within a hidden sanctuary buried beneath a tall mountain peak but in recent years the cult has grown deathly silent, all that is left are rumors of powerful magicks and a great treasure hoard which awaits those brave enough to enter.

Turn again, Turn again
A Pathfinder Side Quest by Stephen Yeardley for four to six PCs of levels 8-12.
When the gods and demi-gods were young, fresh and inexperienced, they were often taken in by the duplicitous nature of some of their “worshipers”, falling for flattery and deception from those who were a little more “worldly-wise”. So some of the newer demi-gods devised a series of chests that responded to the actual nature of the person opening it, thus revealing their true selves. These chests were filled, placed in a hidden and challenging spot and watched by two of these deities – to ensure fair play – for when experienced followers, who a particular deity wanted to help develop further, came along.
