Riven Catacombs for Shadowdark RPG
Levels 1 to 9
Brave the Bone-Strewn Halls of the Riven Catacombs
Overview
Centuries ago, the Red Death cast its shadow across the realm. A demonic plague of gargantuan proportions, it felled nearly one-third of the population. Desperate survivors nailed the crimson corpses into hastily constructed caskets and sealed them inside a hidden catacomb within the Complex. Some accused the plague doctors of being overzealous, burying the living along with the dead...
The Riven Catacombs are an ancient, plague-infested crypt riven by earthquakes and haunted by an evil entity.
Notable Features:
A room filled with living darkness that threatens to devour creatures whole.
A magical compass suspended over a gaping abyss.
A supernatural red mist carrying a deadly plague.
13 twisted relics.
5 beautifully illustrated player handouts.
Versatility
For each NPC encounter, the Fantasy Grounds adaptation also includes a list of recommended alternative encounters based on party level. The list ranges from party level one to party level nine, assuming four PCs. Using these lists, the GM can quickly adjust encounter difficulty to match the strength of the party.
What are Dungeon Domains?
Dungeon Domains are hand-drawn geomorphs representing sections of dungeons, caverns, sewers, or catacombs, fleshed out with flavourful and detailed descriptions of each area, as well as a unique legend explaining the dungeon's history. Every Dungeon Domain has been designed to connect seamlessly with any of its sister products, allowing GMs to construct or expand dungeons of any size with minimal effort. The Fantasy Grounds adaptation includes two versions of the player map: one with open map edges allowing for expansion, and one with closed map edges for using this product in isolation.
No A.I.
Products from Bolwerk Publishing do not use A.I. 'art', A.I.-generated writing, or A.I. assistance/prompts of any kind. All Dungeon Domains are 100% created by humans, for humans. The Fantasy Grounds adaptation of this product does not contain any A.I.-generated images, including NPC tokens. Therefore, combat encounters (which include tokens) are not included. In place of combat encounters, lists of links to NPC records in external sources are provided. Ownership of the original products is required in order to open these NPC records. The following products were used:
Shadowdark Core Rules, Cursed Scrolls 1, 2 and 3, Unnatural Selection, and Creature Feature I.
