DCC 45: Malice of the Medusa (3e)
 |
 |
In the slums of a small desert-shrouded city¸ the malformed and degenerate huddle in darkened alleys¸ their ranks growing with each passing year. More and more children are birthed with horrible snake-like deformities¸ a result of the creeping influence of demon worship among the downtrodden of society. Now a troubling plague has befallen the higher castes: inexplicably and without warning¸ members of the ruling elite catch fire and within moments are reduced to mere bones. Terrified and powerless¸ they turn to the heroes for salvation. All the clues point to one place: the lair of a powerful medusa and her spiteful curses...
An Adventure for Character Levels 1-3
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 adventures 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 remember¸ and the secret doors you know are there somewhere.
