Several millennia back¸ the peoples of the mighty Kingdom of Merritt entered into all-out war with their long-time nemesis¸ the People of the Pit¸ a nefarious race of slug-like creatures hailing from a vast subterranean city lying on their northern border. Though the battle was hard fought¸ with both sides initially incurring heavy losses¸ the Merrittians in due course gained the upper hand¸ almost wholly exterminating their foe. Even the very god of the People of Pit was banished to the lower planes by a cabal of Merrittian magic-users and clerics¸ or so they thought. Recently¸ the evil within the city of the People of the Pit has surged yet again¸ and it is up to you to see that it doesn't spill out into the surrounding lands. "People of the Pit" was designed to be run with a minimum of preparation¸ and can be integrated into the Game Master's home campaign with little effort. Even though the adventure is designed for 4-6 players of levels 5-7¸ it can easily be modified to suit lower and higher level parties with the NPC tables in the appendix. It contains 41 pages of text¸ 12 pieces of original art¸ 4 new monsters and 5 pages of maps.
