Woeful Barrows And Other Places (2024)

Menagerie Press invites you to adventure into the elf-tombs of Moire and Tiar, find Ord’s crypt-tree, battle the Amber Chimera, and recover eldritch baubles and lore. A Shadowdark-compatible role-playing game adventure collection for level 1-5 characters. The Queen of Brambles: Elf-Queen Lia's crypt was recently rediscovered. Do you dare disturb her resting place? Shune's Door: In the hillside, a black steel door is etched with the diabolic glyph of Shune the Betrayer. What lies beyond? Gorr's Tomb: Hatlitt Gorr was a renowned dragon-slayer, but the dwarf warlord succumbed to the curse of his dragon-tainted gold. Seek gold and glory, or a quick death. The Amber Chimera: An old Elvish reflecting pool, a black obelisk, and a chimera carved from amber. Rumors talk about wealth, danger, and a gemstone beast that cannot die. The Pale Vault: The Ebon Heart, an arcane relic of immense power, was secured in the Pale Vault. Will you brave the vault's wards and acquire the wooden heart? Finding Seph Bordel: Persephone Bordel, fiancée of Lord Oster, was kidnapped by her ex-lover. There's a substantial reward for rescuing her from her captors. Tomb of Himortu: The ancient elf-lord Himortu was buried with his arms and armor. Surely these antiquities belong in your capable hands - you just need to go get them. Short Encounters: A collection of 15+ wilderness and 6+ urban encounters, such as a dream wine speakeasy, prism-worshipping cultists, a trapped cave troll, hobgoblin bandit ambushes, eager grifters selling "magical trinkets," and many more.
