OSE: Adventure Anthology 2

Four short adventures for Old-School Essentials, taking adventurers from musty barrow mounds and gnomish shrines, to sinister cathedrals and accursed stepwells. Barrow of the Bone Blaggards. A level 1–3 tomb adventure by Chance Dudinack. Skeletal brigands are harrying trade roads, dragging plunder and live prisoners back to their lair in a recently opened barrow mound. Within the mound, PCs face the rambunctious skeletons, and may discover the secret of their origin—the hapless necromancer who animated them, now held captive. Shrine of the Oozing Serpent. A level 1–3 dungeon adventure by Nate Treme. The ruined forge-temple of an ancient gnomish sect is now home to a fetid grease dragon and her amphibious minions. PCs are tasked with slaying the dragon—and may unearth all manner of gnomish secrets along the way. Cathedral of the Crimson Death. A level 4–6 chapel incursion adventure by Diogo Nogueira. In a land ravaged by plague, the Purifying Church of the Crimson Flame has turned from beacon of hope to cruel oppressor. PCs infiltrate the Church’s headquarters in an attempt to loot their treasures or end their reign of terror. The Ravener’s Ghat. A level 6–8 temple ruin adventure by Brian Yaksha. The ruined temple of the accursed rakshasa overlord known as the Ravener has been recently rediscovered in the depths of the rainforest. Unbeknown to the treasure hunters who greedily eye the ruin, the presence of the Ravener still lingers, beckoning intruders to a most indignant doom.
