The Maze Beneath the Maize
All around the sleepy town of Stawford lies rich farmland. The area near the foothills is especially fertile. Well, was especially fertile. First the Sundering, and now frequent earthquakes have left the region in disarray. At the dead center of the chaos is the Therayle farmstead.
The farm, which has been in the family for generations, was the best producing in the region. It now faces ruin. Hugh Therayle, the current owner, is at wit's end trying to reestablish even a modicum of control over the disrupted land. But, when Hugh saw the ancient doorway jutting up from the middle of the field where his corn used to be, he knew that this wasn't the type of problem a plow could solve.
We're excited to offer the first Broken Knives premium release, this adventure for a group of 5th level characters.
The Boatman's Dog
The Boatman's Dog serves the finest cuisine. Much finer than an establishment of it's stature should be serving. At "The Dog" the fire is always crackling and the ale is always cold, but guests go missing, and no one is sure where the charismatic halfling proprietor Angus Thickheel is getting his meat.
The Boatman's Dog is a low level encounter for Ravenloft, Forgotten Realms or your homebrew campaign.
Gregorio's Traveling Emporium and Menagerie
Gregorio is a traveling merchant, with a "magnificent" menagerie and a dark secret. Gregorio's Traveling Emporium and Menagerie is a short encounter (hopefully no more than 30-45 minutes) for second level characters set in Ravenloft, Forgotten Realms or your homebrew campaign.
The Crumbling Wall
A mysterious bard sits atop a crumbling wall deep in the forest. What secrets are told in his sonorous tunes? The Crumbling Wall is a short encounter (hopefully no more than 30-45 minutes) for first level characters set in Ravenloft, Forgotten Realms or your homebrew campaign.
Bard Subclass: College of Harmony
For bards of the College of Harmony, violence isn't the answer, manipulation is. These bards aren't afraid to use their natural charisma and magical ability to get whatever their hearts desire.
The College of Harmony is a new subclass for Bards in 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons. The subclass is based on the idea of a character that is a natural born manipulator both in and out of combat.
Wizard Subclass: School of Scrolls
As a member of the School of Scrolls, or a Scribbler, you understand the power of the written word in a way that traditional wizards do not. Sure spellbooks have a place, but they require preparation. The true flexibility lies in scrolls. We also provide a sample NPC with an adventure hook for DMs and a short section on how wizards of this school fit in Ravenloft.
Barbarian Subclass: Path of the Consumed
For some Barbarians rage isn’t merely anger. It’s a fire withinthem that constantly ripples beneath the surface, craving mayhem and destruction. For most, the fire overwhelms them, but a select few walk the Path of the Consumed.
The Path of the Consumed is a new subclass for Barbarians in 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons. The subclass is based on the idea of a character that is driven by an inner darkness within him that compels him toward carnage on the battlefield.
