This adventure is inspired by the classic module B1: In Search of the Unknown. It takes the central conceit of the adventure: a pair of adventurers, in years past, repel an invasion from a mysterious army, and in the aftermath settle down to found a keep in the wilderness, only to disappear at some point in the recent past, apparently meeting their end against their former foes.
This module, written for a party of 3-6 characters, levels 1-3, takes that idea and expands on it, refining the dungeon, adding a starting town and a hinted-at aboveground portion, and weaves the original one-shot adventure into the first part of an adventure path designed to take the characters from levels 1 to 10 or higher.
It is written and statted for Old School Essentials, Shadowdark, and Bree-YARC, but can be easily adapted to any similar old-school system. It includes:
- The starting town of Cedar’s Ford, which will serve as a the player’s base for the adventure. Includes rumors, potential hirelings, and plot hooks.
- Wilderness encounters and locations between town and dungeon.
- An aboveground portion of the dungeon, based upon a single illustration of a tower in the original module.
- Two levels of the dungeon, based upon and drawing inspiration from the original, but with a reworked layout.
- Three major factions within the dungeon for the party to interact with.
- An Appendix with weather matrix, treasures, and a general timeline of how the adventure should play out.
