541 A Promise of Death (Patreon)

Merry Holidays Denizens of the Tower! This is 2021's last publication! We'd like to say hi. Send you good vibes. Send our best wishes to you, your friends, and all your close ones. This is a dungeon-crawling map of an underground crypt or mausoleum. This publication is not part of the Dungeon Vault Magazine compilation. Instead, it belongs to an adventure published in the DM's Guild called "A Promise for Death". Here's the BLURB:

In A Promise of Death, a group of level-5 characters learns of a strange group of undead abominations who built a gallows by a crossroads. The undead knights capture, torture, and hang all those who attempt to go past them on the King's Road. They have hanged more than thirty people so far and thrown them into a shallow ditch. The captain of the city watch now offers a hefty reward for mercenaries and adventurers valiant enough to oppose the armored dead knights.

Unknown to most, the knights belonged to the Order of the Green Feathers. They were a powerful faction loyal to the king more than 400 years ago. Alas, they were betrayed by their ruler and hanged for a crime they did not commit. Now they have returned with a promise to bring death to all those in the kingdom. In their rageful eyes, all the living are guilty of the hell they were forced to endure. Hatred is the force that drove them to return from the afterlife!

This is a level 5 adventure with a bit of exploration, combat, and the discovery of an ancient crypt! Check out your inbox. We've sent you a download code for this adventure as an end-of-the-year gift!
