Prepare yourselves for an elaborate heist in this winter-themed adventure!

30 years ago, The War for the Silver Marches devestated the region, splitting the realm and devestating several cities. In the wake of Sundabar's recapture at the end of the War, a young drow woman escapes to the Nether Mountains, fleeing the city that slew her parents. Through the winter winds, a duergar finds the drow girl, shivering in the snow and takes her to his secret underground compound. Now, 30 years later, people are still picking up the pieces, trying to recoup the losses from the War, while the young drow girl grows into a woman. But time does not heal all wounds. Now the duergar who captured her is her second-in-command, while she plans her revenge upon the dwarves, using the powerful arcane artifacts she's accumulated over the years.

It is time for the adventurers to delve into the depths of the compound and plunder her vault of all the riches it holds, in order to stop her crusade. But will they succeed? Find out in this epic adventure which takes you players from the urban criminal underground of Baldur's Gate, through the rebuilt dwarven citadel of Sundabar, all the way to the Nether Mountains for a heist of epic proportions. The Birds of Prey await your arrival...

FEATURES:

• Delve through the criminal underground. This adventure takes your players through the criminal undergrounds of Baldur's Gate and Sundabar and lets them decide which thieves' guild will eventually help them succeed in plundering the secret compound. Intrigue, loyalty and betrayal are just a few the of themes explored in this half-urban, half-wilderness adventure. Who will your players ally themselves with and make an enemy of?

• Absolute freedom. This adventure caters to any possible playstyle. No NPC is 'essential' and there is no way to mess up the story based on the players' actions. It caters to good, evil or neutral parties, with short-reaching and long-reaching consequences for any decision made.

• A well crafted story. When making an adventure, my two top priorities are player agency and a good story. Over 2 years in development and playtesting, this adventure delivers a solid story with many of the NPCs' backstories being intertwined. Any NPC you meet will probably have a connection with some other NPC in the story and the decisions your players make when interacting with them might affect both. While not a direct contiuation, there's also a plot hook from my previous adventure that connects to this one, giving the players who played Beneath the Surface a way to continue the story.

• A sense of humor. The adventure has many pop-culture references, gags and funny situations, without dilluting the seriousness of the overall story. These moments of levity try to maintain the pacing of the story and try to alleviate any symptoms of possible boredom.

• Combat is optional. There is no encounter in the story that can't be solved either diplomatically or sneaked past. The adventure treats encounters as problems your players have to solve, not as tedious dungeon crawls which have to be completed in order to progress the story. However, if your party wishes to finish the adventure leaving a trail laden with bodies, the module allows that as well!

• An epic heist. Ever wanted to pull off a caper like Ocean's Eleven or Mission Impossible? You can do so in this adventure! But be careful; the devious traps and numerous security mechanism in the adventure's eventual heist might discourage all but the bravest of adventurers... The heist itself in chapter 5 is also modular, meaning you can use it as a standalone one-shot if you just wish to give your players an epic puzzle they need to solve.

This adventure has been a long time in the making. After numerous playtesters and some one-shots, it was tried and tested to provide a balanced experience for your players, making sure that every encounter is challenging, but not unbeatable. If you're looking for an adventure for a mid level party, this one will give you a balanced mix of exploration, storytelling and possible combat. Pick up the adventure today and get heisting!

VERSION HISTORY:

1. 1.0 - original version release

Surrounded by sparks and flame, a Sun Elf prepares herself for battle against three Drow assassins. The light spilling from her form burns their eyes with the fury of the Elemental Plane of Fire.

Delving deep beneath the ocean, a Tiefling prays to Istishia for luck as he uses his control over the waves to search for a pirate captain’s lost treasure. The water around him is as familiar as the air he breathes.

Studying long into the night, a Dwarf digs through spellbooks and treatises, honing their ability to shape and conjure stone.

Elementalists are experts of the Inner Planes, using their knowledge of arcana and their understanding of the elements to channel elemental power through themselves. Elementalists see themselves not as demanding masters of the elements, but instead as open conduits for the energy of the Planes.

Get three products at a reduced price, including two adventures and one supplement!

This bundle includes two adventures and one supplement: Beneath the Surface (an adventure for characters 1-4th level), Birds of Prey (an adventure for characters 5-10th level) and Crit & Miss (a supplement for critical hits and misses). While the actual cost of these three products individually would amount to 12$+ you can get them all for 10$! The two adventures can be played consecutively, offering a vague enough plot hook which connects the two stories, but can also be played standalone. The supplement included gives you the ability to spice up your critical hits and misses, creating a more diverse and dangerous playfield for your players.

Check the links below to inspect these titles individually!

FEATURES:

• From humble beginnings to epic heists. The two adventures, while not a direct continuation, can be played consecutively or individually. They will take your players from solving a mystery, which might spell doom for a small island town, all the way through an epic heist in the Nether Mountains.

• Absolute freedom. All of my adventures are always written by giving the players maximum freedom as they play through them. There is a sandbox quality to both adventures which gives them a lot of replayability and both can easily be swapped out in their respective level tiers, if your players wanna try a different adventure instead.

• Well-crafted stories. Both of the adventures feature a non-intrusive story. Depending on your party's commitment, they can simply complete the objectives from a pragmatic standpoint and just take their just rewards, or, they can dig deeper and uncover ancient mysteries and secrets. It all depends how deep they want to go...

• A sense of humor. I try to give a sense of levity to all my adventures. This comes in the form of pop-culture references, funny NPCs or strange but hillarious encounters. While the module is in no way "a joke", it does include these moments in order to break the monotony of seriousness as the story progresses. While the first adventure is not rife with these moments, they do occur much more often in the second one.

• Fierce combat. While all combat in my adventures is optional, you can use the supplement to add some spice to it. As this might make encounters more challenging, it will also make it more interesting, inflicting several new conditions to the combatants.

Some technical data:

Length: Beneath the Surface (72 pages; ~41k words), Birds of Prey (115 pages; ~64k words), Crit and Miss (14 pages; ~3k words)

“We shall emerge triumphant from this dreadful war or be reduced to dust. We defend Karrnath with our spilled blood, our last breath, our very bones.”
— Madox Kaminarr, Karrn Bone Knight

Those who swear the Oath of Bone command undead defenders with precise tactical expertise. They craft armor and weapons of bone to mark their place in the armies, harness necrotic energies, and marshal hordes of frightening monsters into soldiers of discipline and cunning.

Dissatisfied with other versions of the bone knight from prior editions of D&D, the author aims to bring it back to its undead-commanding, paladin roots in this preview of a subclass from his bestselling Eberron Archetypes: Heroes of the Five Nations.

Beyond just rules, this short and sweet PDF includes loads of roleplaying ideas and setting material, including details on playing this archetype with members of various races and factions from the Eberron setting, examination of the subclass's ethos, a history of the first bone knights, and more!

This is a simple redesign of the werewolf to make it more dynamic as both an enemy and ally (you know...if it comes to that). The werewolf's curse specifically has been updated to be more interesting. It is now not as simple as pass/fail. Contracting lycanthropy does not necessarily turn you into a wolf man, but it may cause you to go insane, go bezerk, or even die (and yes, even become a werewolf...if you're lucky). So...good luck. Also, thanks to homebrewery.

There are those rogues out there sought after not for their stealth, but for their keen eyes and brilliant minds. These individuals are often hired to track the untraceable, see the unseeable and build cases for or against the government. Investigators are often neutral parties, not putting emotions over the facts they see around them, they simply want to know the truth and what truly happened in any circumstance.

Hi all! This is another entry into my prestige class home brew options. Like the vampire, there is a "lite" version which is contracted as a disease, which you can then lean into to take prestige levels as a werewolf. Also like the vampire, this IS overpowered. DM's should dole out levels in the class sparingly, at least at tier 2 and 3 play.

Enjoy!

À la fois crains et respectés, les inquisiteurs parcourent le monde à la recherche des ennemis des dieux. Détenteurs de pouvoirs divins et de techniques de traques, ils n'hésitent pas à dispenser la justice divine partout où ils passent. Ils rendent des comptes à l'église de leur dieu, mais rien ne peut les préparer à leur terrible mission. Les inquisiteurs voient le pire des démons, mais également des mortels. Nombre de ces agents craquent face aux horreurs qu'ils ont vu, d'autre encore abandonnent leur humanité, et commentent des horreurs comparables à celles de leurs ennemis. Beaucoup ont perdu la foi et se battent pour le moindre mal, plutot que le bien commun.

La classe d'inquisiteur représente des agents envoyés par une authorité supérieure, quelque chose bien plus ancien qu'une monarchie, parfois un pays. Ils sont capables d'appeler la colère des dieux sous la forme de jugements frappant leurs ennemis ou de flammes divines entourant leurs armes.
Chaque inquisiteur a accès à 14 jugements qu'il peut prononcer pour renforcer ses attaques contre un unique ennemi, chaque archétype donnant accès à un jugement unique à sa confrérie.
Ce document contient 3 archétypes représentant différentes philosophies de combat pour les inquisiteurs. Le répurgateur est un puissant combattant, n'hésitant pas à se jeter dans la mélée. A l'opposé se trouve le juge, capable de commander ses alliés à la victoire. Le dernier est le maître chien qui, s'il est un combattant médiocre, est toujours bien entouré.

Je sais qu'il y a déjà 2 classes d'inquisiteurs sur le site, mais je ne m'en suis rendu compte environ une heure avant de mettre en place cette version. Elle est principalement inspirée de l'inquisiteur de pathfinder (jeu auquel je n'ai jamais joué je précise). 
J'attends des retours avec impatience.

A spell that creates blades that can be wielded or as a deterent for those trying to get to close. 

When the savage beast is united with the civility of a humanoid, the result is the mighty werewolf. Not all desire this gift and not all who posses it are in full control, but the werewolf's raw strength can not be denied!

A dream.  You find yourself sitting at a long table in a tavern surrounded by several others; all eating, drinking and seemingly having a good time. In front of you, just beyond your plate of food, is a clay model of a dungeon, complete with miniature figures of heroes and monsters. At the table's head is a dwarf; half hidden behind a book sat upright before him. He looks to you and says "Another hit with your mace...another Troglydyte falls. What do you do?". 

This is my second module after re-entering the world of D&D.  I tried to make it shorter than my last sprawling attempt.  It is so hard not to stuff a story with too much detail, but I am now understanding how important it is to trust the imaginations of those who share this common interest. This is still too verbose, but I'm getting closer to what I want them to be. 

Enjoy...and thanks for being the wonderful, adventurous, creative community you are. In a world where distraction is all around us and so freely available, be proud of your desire to work at it a little bit...and inject your own flavor.

I recommend this adventure for 4 or more players of level 3-5.  It should be playable in one or two sessions.

Under the Moon

“You arrive at a small cluster of houses by the roadside, where you were going on your journey, the streets are abandoned, completely empty, something strange hangs in the air..."

The "Under the Moon" adventure, included in March Roll for Treasure subscription Box, it comes with the adventure and an A3 sized map of the adventure.

The 11th in a mini series known as Archetypes for Weirdos! Make a deal with the devil with Warlock Pacts for Weirdos! Original artwork and subclasses by me, Jordan Allen, also known as MommyMoke. 

Enclosed in this book are 3 new options for your Warlock weirdo to take! Be a mirror trickster with the Bloody Mary pact. Be a master of dreams with The Sandman pact. And be a bane to mages everywhere with The Void pact!

More subclass books will be made for every class in Dungeons and Dragons as they are created and will eventually be compiled into one book! So keep watching folks!

“Bloodmage Class Option” is the first of four new class instalments that seek to explore new player options, from both a narrative and mechanical standpoint, reimagining the sorcerer class in the process.

BLOODMAGE.

Practitioners of blood magic can sacrifice their own health in order to cast spells. Haagenti, the Demon Lord of Alchemy, learned the secrets of this arcane practice through repeated alchemical experiments and demonic rituals. Other demon lords developed these methods and founded Blood Orders to promote its use: Order of the Insatiable, Order of the Occult, Order of the Parasitic, and Order of the Undead.

(Note: Due to this class being part of a project to reimagine the sorcerer, it is incompatible with the sorcerer class from the Player’s Handbook).

Coming Soon.

• Demi-God Class Option
• Sorcerer Class Option
• Elementalist Class Option

Supplemental Empires

A companion piece for the Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, detailing the Old Empires. It provides information on the lands of Chessenta, Mulhorand, Tymanther and Unther. It also touches on the surrounding factions and locations, such as the Dragon Principalities (Murghôm and Semphâr), the Abolethic Sovreignty, the Vilhon Wilds, and the yuan-ti nation of Okoth.

This supplement may serve as guidance for Dungeon Masters and players alike. It provides advice for setting campaigns in the Old Empires, as well as for coming up with backstories for characters from the Old Empires.

The party finds a secret chamber in a cavern, which was used as a gnoll hideout years ago before being cleared out by other adventurers. The secret chamber features a shrine to the demon lord Yeenoghu. If a PC puts their blood in the bowl of the shrine, they will slowly begin to transform into a gnoll.
