The '''Steelbone Meadows''' is a site in the [[Bandit Kingdoms]], known for being the place where thousands of soldiers were slain in a bloody massacre at the end of the [[Greyhawk Wars]]. While an army of 10,000 bandits celebrated, a cleric of [[Iuz]] named [[Bernel]] of [[Hallorn]] who was present, gripped by mad paranoia that the bandits intended to betray him, set [[orc]] assassins, fiends and magic upon them, slaying more than half.


While this act has condemned Bernel to a likely unpleasant existence in the dungeons of [[Dorakaa]], the survivors of this massacre have nursed a deep resentment for Iuz. Those who fell still walk the meadow as vengeful undead, unable to be controlled by Iuz's priests for the hatred they bear for the Old One.
