Adventure modules
Below are all our published adventure modules. We primarily write system neutral modules, but make sure they are easy to convert to your system of choice.
They work equally well with DnD 5e, Adventurous, Cairn, OSE and Shadowdark.
How we make our modules work for any system
System neutral modules can often be so vaguely written that it requires significant time invested by the GM to add in the necessary details. We don’t write them that way.
We make sure our modules are easy to pick up and run with any fantasy TTRPG system by following these procedures:
- We write in a clear and deliberate manner. Avoiding phrases like: “a heavily armored figure“, instead writing: “The knight wears plate mail and a tower shield“. There is no need to be vague when plate mail and tower shields are mechanically identical in 95% of all systems.
- We choose well known monsters. Rather than writing: “Four wolf-like creatures” live in the cave, we write “Four wolves live in the cave”, because wolves are present in the bestiary of more or less all fantasy TTRPGs, making it easy to look up the stats of your system of choice. We use the bestiary from Old School Essentials (OSE), Shadowdark and Adventurous when designing our adventures, and use those creature names for maximum familiarity.
- We add guidance when it comes to difficulty classes. All systems don’t use DCs, and many systems differ when it comes to what DC is considered “Hard” or “Easy”. We always write guiding details like: “The Dwarven master forged padlock is Hard to pick” or “Walking across the slippery plank is doable by most”. This should make it easy for you to decide on a suitable DC.
- Bestiary and treasury as inspiration. All modules contain a bestiary and treasury adapted to the Adventurous system, this will give you additional information to help you flesh out any details that might still be unclear.
