Waterdeep: Dragon Heist - Summer Slaughter
 |
The Zhentarim have been fighting a secret civil war in Waterdeep; those like you¸ loyal to the Doom Raiders' vision of success¸ against those turncoats whose loyalties flipped the moment Manshoon reappeared. What's worse is that Xanathar¸ the Zhents' greatest rival In the city¸ wants you all dead equally.
That was¸ until the drow crime lord Jarlaxle waltzed onto the scene¸ and brokered a deal between the Doom Raiders and the Xanathar himself. For one day only you have a tenuous truce. By the end of this day¸ Manshoon will be dead.
It's a bit of a tall order¸ but what better way to celebrate Dragondown than by bringing down a dragon of your own?
Summer Slaughter is a oneshot supplement to the Waterdeep: Dragon Heist adventure book¸ which takes a group of 5th level characters through the Kolat Towers. This easily adaptable adventure is perfect for a summer campaign of Dragon Heist as it introduces the players to the other three potential villains of the book. Players take on the roles of Zhentarim working for Davil Starsong and the Doom Raiders¸ teaming up with Xanathar's Guild for the first time to infultrate Manshoon's hiding place and demolish his operation. But the great wizard Manshoon may not be entirely unaware of what's coming for him....
Summer Slaughter can be played in one session or two¸ and it's recommended to have 4-6 players.
Included:
A printer-friendly black-and-white version of the PDF Changes to the Kolat Towers and Manshoon's Extradimensional Sanctum Rules for including ally NPCs for smaller parties Rules for tracking off-screen combat between player allies and excess enemies Alternative initiative options to streamline multiple combat encounters
