VERSION 1 is LIVE!!!!1!


Deep sigh of relief....

IT IS DONE!!!!!

Admittedly, this project took much longer than I expected. After some feedback on the Shadowdark forums, I rewrote a lot of this project & completely redid the layout/formatting. There are a lot of experimental elements here and divergences from the typical Shadowdark aesthetic, but I wanted it to look like something I did, not Arcane Library, so I erred on the side of being drastically different. I'm thankful Kelsey made something so easy to run and fun to build for. 

I hope that my deviations from some of those aesthetic expectations don't distract people from the effort and passion placed into this project in my humble attempt to build something you might enjoy at your table and find easy to read as the GM electing to run it. That said, if there are things you don't like, please let me know. If there are things you enjoy, make my day and let me know. 

Regardless, I really appreciate you giving me a few minutes of your time. 

Also, I need to thank Dungeon Masterpiece for running the original Shadowdark jam that led to me being bitten by the creator bug. 

What can you expect?!

This is adventure module is an adventure for 1st level Shadowdark characters that can last 2-4 sessions depending on character choices. It is packed with all the tools you need to run the adventure aside from monsters that are included in the core rulebook.  

It includes:

  • 2 new ancestries (drow & kitt);
  • naming lists, NPCs, multiple factions;
  • 21 new monsters; 
  • new character starter kits; 
  • over 60 pages of content;
  • detailed maps; and
  • a coding system for quick reference (also tabs).

OH. AND IT'S ENTIRELY FREE! 

I would appreciate any pennies you shuffle under the table out of sight of the all-seeing eyes, but it's not required. Take it, play it. Enjoy!

This was a huge undertaking for me and I would appreciate any feedback, especially if you play it so I can make a better adventure next time. I already learnt a lot from many of you just from the first draft to this one.
