@EdificeHead The tables at the bottom of each page look super useful! I really appreciate, "what is it doing?" tables. "What does it want?" tables are also really useful for NPCs that aren't just there to fight and be killed.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

@EdificeHead I just commented about creating a witch class on EN World, but your description of Dolmenwood here sounds like it would also be useful, especially for patrons.

Fuck what you've heard, @ZakSmithSabbath is still the best. Merry Christmas.

an 11th person just paid 1000$ for the Compendium. this is nuts. I made it an option because I figured maybe one or two social-media-shy collectors would go for it but never expected anything like this

[Grognardling @grognardling]

Lord of Rats is a great way to get a bunch of PCs who have met in a tavern into the adventure right away. They may even have thought they were meeting up to go on another quest that night… but then a server falls through the door into the common room with a giant rat on top…

Finally, there is a one-page version of this dungeon out there somewhere, but what I can find is spread over a few pages here:

That link should take you to the 135th page of the document where the dungeon is.

The Alabaster Tower is a rare linear dungeon I recommend. It's nothing but puzzles and makes for a very welcoming first experience for new players. I've used it as an introduction to new players who weren't sure they would be able to play.

The sorcerer in this adventure also provides a great place to leave cursed items, along with regular magic items.

I saddled one PC with Buck's Hat of Misery here. She had it for multiple sessions and *hated* it.

The Grey Goblin Warrens are sprawling and will almost certainly take multiple sessions. There's a dragon. And a troll. And traps and ambushes and more.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

This dungeon taught me that my players don't necessarily know the things about monsters that I think are common knowledge. In this case, they didn't know that trolls regenerate…

Their solution was eventually to decapitate the troll and lock its head in a chest.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

These two are just really solid, dense, Jaquaysed, dungeons that make excellent go-to modules.

I've run both of these and they are big enough to fill multiple sessions.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

And it has its own mutated beast tables. I've run this, it was at least one of my players' first time ever playing, we all had a blast.

I really like how this dungeon plays with elevation. It took some extra effort to understand how to run it, and it makes it a bit more linear than I like, but I think it is very much worth it.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

There are traps, puzzles, and even potential social encounters with the dragon and trolls.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

Well, I need to get my posting count here up for the Compendium, so I'm going to talk about some old one-page dungeons I really enjoy.

First up, the Quintessential Dungeon: https://t.co/i45KphSER4

I haven't run this yet, but I plan to use if for the next game I run.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

What I like about it:

1) It is Jaquaysed. Multiple entrances, multiple choices about where to go.

2) Lots of "classic" monsters. I think a lot of D&D players only know about some of the classics but haven't actually encountered them.

3) It isn't just monsters…

@SlengTuol17544 It looks like you already have the Compendium! What is your favorite part so far?

[Grognardling @grognardling]

@2KAD77 Have you played Hyena Child? It sounds very cool.

[Grognardling @grognardling]

@MoFoCThat Have you ever played any super-hero TTRPGs? Do you have a favorite system?
