5 - The Warlock: Pink Floyd "Shine on you Crazy Diamond"
Alcatraz was born of a high noble house from Bael Turath's glory days. Though to be the scion that would lead the house back to its former greatness, Alcatraz instead brought the family to ruin when he made a pact with an outer entity, becoming a Warlock of the stars. Forced to the harsh road alone, Alcatraz used his power to arm himself to survive the trials ahead, becoming a Hexblade. Alcatraz sees visions of destruction and ruin, and fears that his youthful arrogance from the past may be the spark that ignited the fire of these events yet to come.
6 - The Campaign: Dio "Egypt (The Chains Are On)"

7 - The Villain: The Beatles "I am the Walrus"
As agents of chaos go, Slaads are some of the most bizarre creatures in the cosmos. But the Slaad known as Walrus uses his insanity in a different way. Rather than wanton destruction, he is trying to create something within the natural world. His horrors across the land are palpable, but the center of his self made kingdom is almost peaceful and serene.
10 - The Final Battle: Guns n Roses "Paradise City"
The serene capitol of Walrus breaks down, revealing the corruption within as Walrus' madness reaches its peak. The PCs must escape the city and slay Walrus before the city consumes itself, erasing everything in it from existence.

Enjoy
