Samples

To show better what is included, here are some snippets or samples of the type of content you'll find here in these Tomes and Modules. Enjoy.

Tomes

Tomes are Core books, if the goal is to use Adherlwyn as a complete campaign setting, then core books are recommended.

They can also be utilized in a modular or piecemeal fashion in existing home brew campaigns to help expand on world building and content.

Modules

Modules are adventures. They vary in complexity, difficulty, and style.

They can be used stand alone one-shots or as chapters to larger stories, as indicated by their position in a stated series.

THE FREE CITY

Nestled snugly in the heart of the Karlissian Kingdom and just scratching the southernmost shores of the Sea of Dunston, is the largest and proudest trade city in the face of Adherlwyn, founded in the first era by the great Terrzian, Alithar is a trade city rich in goods and tradition.

There is a saying amongst those in the streets that goes, “life begins in Alithar”, and while that may seem trite, it may not be that far off. The citizens of Alithar have seen kingdoms come and go and witnessed the complete collapse and rebirth of an entire faith-based system. It has been the focal point for many of the major world events. On top of this, when Baltek decided to start his road here, it was a solid and smart choice that added profit to prestige. Nearly every type of merchandise from salt to slaves can be bought, sold, stolen, acquired, filched, pilfered, or purchased within its vast and seemingly never-ending markets. It is without question the richest city in the world.

THE ELEVATOR

This is a dimly lit small cavern. In the center of the cavern are two large floor-to-ceiling beaten wooden and iron structures which seem to each be some kind of simple elevator. The controls for both being hand crank gears in the back of each elevator. Against the back wall, roughly centered, is a brazier which seems to contain the last vestiges of Everburn but is providing very dim light in the space. Against the East wall is an old desk which has been stripped of any kind of material or goods.

THE CAPTAIN'S ROOM

This is a small 15’ by 15’ room with a fireplace set in the center of the West wall. Inside the space is a small bed, a rough desk, And a small chest or footlocker. Asleep, or possibly unconscious, in the Northwest corner of the room with chains on her wrists and ankles is a Half Sylvan Female. She is partially clothed and looks severely beaten.

THE VORTEX

The Elemental Vortex is an endless twisting and chaotic hurricane of elements constantly in motion and colliding with one another. The result is a ridiculously dangerous region beyond the limits of the Helix. Elemental power is drawn from this space and when it is, it pulls variants of that element toward the center putting them, again, in nearly constant motion. The region is inhabited with a variety of beings and magical denizens who in and of themselves are part of an element.

ENCAMPMENT

The narrow pathway winds around the ruins and leads to a small clearing by a side entrance. What was once perhaps fertile farmland which covered this hilltop and the immediate area around it is now overgrown with grasses and weeds in excess of 5’ high. The patch is cluttered with rough tents, some piles of supplies, and a couple of long since put out campfires. There is a door to the keep to your right, it is closed but crumbled and there is nothing blocking anyone from outside entering the main building.
