Blade of the Barbarian
The Barbarian King Bertachar was told a doom by his Seer-Sister Radegunda. He must gift his magic blade Shieldbreaker to a worthy hero or die like a dog. Heroes gather in his hall to compete in drinking¸ lifting stones and answering riddles. The competition is stiff - players who don't employ ruthless cunning will walk away empty handed... or worse! This 1 page adventure should take half a session to complete. It is a suitable challenge for a 4th-6th level fighter type supported by a cleric¸ thief or surreptitious mage. Put it on a rumor table or as an encounter on your hex map.
