Jewels of the Carnifex (70) (3e)
A Level 3 Adventure for DCC RPG
At the end of a forgotten back alley¸ in the weird and otherworldly marketplace of faiths known as the Bazaar of the Gods¸ stands the ruins of a forgotten chapel.

Reviews
- RPG.net : "I consider Harley Stroh's Jewels of the Carnifex to be an example of a nigh-perfect Sword & Sorcery yarn."
- Tower of the Archmage : "I really appreciate an adventure that lets you make difficult moral type choices¸ even if most players probably just try to kill everyone and keep all the stuff."
- Dungeon Masters Guild : "Detail throughout is stupendous¸ and even if the party gets away with the loot they then have to figure out what to do with it. Definitely recommended!"
