Description
Part of Dandyline Games’s “Cover Stories,” a line of adventures designed to “cover” gaps between your regular campaign play. Not everyone showed up? NO PROBLEM! Have to make it a short game night? THIS IS PERFECT! These short, one-session games are actually printed in full, glorious color on a GM-screen-like cover with all the info you need to run them spread across 6 cardstock panels.
In “The Ratcatcher’s Son” the city is besieged by a plague of pests. The local ratcatcher has found an unearthed entrance into an unholy and inhuman temple entwined within the old sewers. Relaying this possible source of the plague to the Baron, his consulting high priests intend to promptly raze the temple’s entrance in a ceremony of purification.
Unfortunately the poor ratcatcher’s son has gone missing along with his copy of the map to these ruins. –off to try and change his family’s fortune with treasure from this unhallowed site no doubt. Can the reavers track down the entrance to the ruins and rescue this young man? Would they do it for a lowly ratcatcher, who can offer nothing but torch bearing services in return?
This adventure holds a great amount of ambience as the PCs experience an archeological exploration of this ancient mortuary temple and face off against its foul and largely gross inhabitants. Interesting magical items, new undead, and a plethora of swarm encounters!
