DCC 51: Castle Whiterock (3e)
 |
As the flame of my second life sputters and dims¸ I find myself thinking more and more on those heroes who¸ though we first met as enemies¸ granted me another opportunity to sip from life's cup. Great were their deeds and deep their wisdom¸ yet the tale of their adventures in Castle Whiterock has not been told: the helpless lives they saved and the wicked lives they ended¸ the diabolic ingenuity of their adversaries¸ the desperate moments when hope was faint¸ and their final victory over the terrible dragon Benthosruthsa.
"If I am granted sufficient time¸ I will see this amended. The world will know of the champions of Castle Whiterock."

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.
Chaos reigns in the kingdom as the king and queen have died¸ leaving no heirs. The heroes are commissioned to go into the king�s vault
