Book 6: Baraq Runes

Have your players been thwarting the plans of your baddies for a while now? Do you want to introduce a Blood Ritual using skill challenges?

Taking into account that it could affect your players’ abilities where the bad guys have set a trap for them?
An encounter where the players are not designed to succeed, but betrayed and trapped. The baddies are tired of your players meddling with their affairs and will attempt to lure them into a ritual. Realising that they could change the course of the encounter.

"Are you ready for an adventure that reduces your prep time and has plug-and-play locations, NPCs, factions, and deities?"

Preparing for your game is easier with this new 40+ page GM-friendly adventure that's designed for four 6th-level characters. However, there are scaling options included. It’s packed with tips and time-saving details, but it still leaves room for your ideas.

It's a story that involves the kindness of the good deities and the corruption of evil forces, which might not be as evil as originally thought. Will your PCs take a liking to a baddie? Maybe even turn to the dark side?

What does it include?

  • 40+ pages of adventure, tips & tricks and expert GM advice on story options.
  • Adventure levels 7 (and scalable to 6 and 8)
  • All battle maps include both GM, PC, gridded, and not-gridded
  • Room for combat, investigation, social encounters and a Blood Ritual.
  • Fleshed out baddies with hooks to more!
  • Spiced up monsters and strategies
  • Snippets of lore to sprinkle in

An encounter set up for player failure?

"What if your party has made enough enemies? How would their enemies retaliate to their force?"

An encounter where the players are required to plan a way to avoid guards by sneaking past them or attempting to persuade/deceive them. The only problem is that the baddies are very much aware of your players skills and abilities.

The baddies have decided to set a trap, preferably to get their revenge and hopefully lure them into a ritual. The ritual could cost them their lives, but also enhance their abilities somewhat.

Will your players realise in time that they could change the course of the encounter from bad to worse? Because they can affect the outcome of the ritual that enhances the powers of the caster permanently.

    This is a massive resource packed with a gripping premise, interesting new mechanics, unique factions, and epic villains. Color coding info to make it easily accessible while running the game is a fantastic idea, and you've provided a ton of guidance for GMs to work off of. Excellent work!

    I'm a big fan of out-of-the-box adventure design that intends to help GMs run a game easily. It's a hard enough job already! :)

    We'll definitely be looking forward to more titles from you on DriveThruRPG.

    So, you messed up and now you're in Hell. What now? We're going to escape and we're killing as many devils as we can. 

    Escape from Hell's Prison gives a comprehensive overview of an escape adventure against evil and smart antagonists. It's soon apparent that simply brute-forcing your way out is not an option. That doesn't mean that the Barbarian Orc with -10 intelligence is useless, far from it. Battles are frequent and varied, allowing the DM to input nearly anything he wants to whilst having a plethora of monsters and preset situations to choose from. But the more patient, smarter characters are able to shine as they try to unravel the secrets of Hell and plot their escape. 

    The adventure is sprawling and can be complicated. Note taking for party members is advised. There are battles, plots, but also moral dilemma's and twists along the way. This book provides the DM with a solid and comprehensive framework that can be easily followed, but leaves room for the fiery imagination.

    This campaign was a lot of fun! There is so much content, we kept getting sidetracked and then there were so much consequences. This world is build carefully and everything is connected.

    Good for the casual playthrough but also with so much depth to get sucked into! I was always looking forward to the next session and looking back at the previous one with joy.

    In my own playthrough, it was great fun discovering the secrets and slowly piecing together the puzzle, with the occasional cathartic battle in between. No spoilers for the ending, but that was a bit evil.
