DCC 26: The Scaly God / Iron Crypt of Heretics (3.5e)
 |
An Adventure for Character Levels 4-6
Remember the good old days¸ when adventures were underground¸ NPCs were there to be killed¸ and the finale of every dungeon was the dragon on the 20th level? Those days are back. Dungeon Crawl Classics don't waste your time with long-winded speeches¸ weird campaign settings¸ or NPCs who aren't meant to be killed. Each adventure is 100% good¸ solid dungeon crawl¸ with the monsters you know¸ the traps you fear¸ and the secret doors you know are there somewhere.
A mountainside stronghold important to local trade has been completely destroyed. When the heroes investigate the situation¸ they find a tribe of savage goblinoids occupying the stronghold. But the goblinoids couldn't possibly have inflicted the damage evident on the mighty stronghold's foundations. The more the heroes dig for clues¸ the more they uncover¸ until soon they find an underground cavern complex unbeknownst to the nearby towns -- and in that cave¸ they come face to face with the goblinoids' scaly god himself...
If you enjoy this adventure¸ look for the rest of the Dungeon Crawl Classics series!
