The Chimera Conspiracy | 9th-level 5th Edition Adventure (Patreon)

Hey, everyone! This adventure is coming a little late as I had some stuff pop up this weekend and I wasn't quite done with the final tweaking on the stat blocks for the new monsters. This one's a fun little romp against some chimera beast-plant hybrids that was in no one inspired by a crazy dream I had a few weeks ago...

Anyway! I hope you all enjoy and let me know what you think! It looks like Steampunk Wilderness and Mythical Noir are at the top of the list for next month's themes so I'll be working on some ideas this week to get the ball rolling!

Thank you all for your continued support! :)

Background

Dr. Elara Grimroot, a brilliant alchemist, was once a respected member of the Academy of Alchemy in Haven, the capital of the Freelands. She spent decades conducting groundbreaking research on the Fey realm and the varieties of wildlife that slipped from that fantastical plane. It wasn’t until a chimeric fusion of plant and beast escaped her secret lab and rampaged through the city streets was her secret discovered. Her ambition and obsession with creating the perfect lifeforms led her down a dark path of vile and forbidden experimentation. Driven by a twisted belief that the natural order needed to be improved and that she was the one to do it, she began experimenting on living creatures, creating hybrids of plant and animal matter called chimeras.

Expelled from the Academy for unethical practices, Dr. Grimroot escaped to her abandoned family estate in the Verdant Hills, where an old greenhouse hides the secret entrance to her original laboratory. Fueled by bitterness and desire for revenge against those who shunned her, she doubled down on her experiments. Her ultimate goal is to create an army of powerful chimera creatures capable of dominating the world.

Her experiments caught the attention of a secret society of dark druids known as the Sap of the Evergreen, who shared Dr. Grimroot's belief in the potential for a new world order. They provided her with resources, exotic specimens, and powerful alchemical ingredients in exchange for her loyalty and eventual assistance in their dark pursuits.

Over the past few years, Dr. Grimroot's experiments grew more twisted and dangerous, transforming innocent creatures into monstrous hybrids. As her experiments near completion to form the perfect chimera, Dr. Grimroot prepares to unleash her abominations upon the world. It’s only a matter of time before her creations have matured to the point they become an unstoppable force and usher in a new wave of genetic mutations throughout the Freelands.
