Shadow of the Demon Lord The Queen Of Gold
The Queen of Gold: Tales of the Pirate Isles
An 11-adventure campaign for Shadow of the Demon Lord
The Queen of Gold presents eleven connected adventures that form a complete campaign. You can run the adventures in the order they are presented in this book, or pick out the adventures you like most.
Set in the world of Shadow of the Demon Lord, characters will rise from meager origins to the heights of power as they struggle with evils coming from beyond the world's edge, a malevolence from which there is no escape. Like other adventures designed for Shadow, this campaign has no expectations for survival or even success, and it's entirely possible for the group to be the catalyst that brings about the end of all things. But that's how it goes when you're standing before the maw of the endless Void that is about to consume the world--and everyone's looking to you to stop it.
