Halls of the Spider Queen - Level 6 Adventure ft. Stained Karbon Maps (Patreon)

Denizens of the Tower! This adventure supplement is a special collaboration with a Patreon creator we are fortunate to call a friend, Stained Karbon Maps! For this adventure, they have provided three awesome maps to enhance the feel of this supplement. We invite you to check out Stained Karbon Maps' Patreon page.

In Halls of the Spider Queen, the characters confront an arachnid monstrosity known as a drider. The Queen of Spiders hides in Greenpine Forest and has corrupted most of its central area. The abomination commands armies of spiders and the several attacks on Barleyton will end up destroying the entire settlement. Constable Valerie Owen needs help, and fast.

The characters start this job ignoring that the drider was a former drow priest. The elf woman was too ambitious and a heretic dreamer for the rest of her kind. They punished her and cursed her in the worst of drow ways. The poor priest lost her mind in the process and her current state has made her forget who she was. But perhaps the heroes' presence could trigger a distant memory or hers...

This is an adventure that takes the characters to Greenpine Forest. There, they must find their way through the dangerous, spider-infested woods and track the Spider Queen's lair. Face to face, the characters must decide if the monster must die, or if there is a way to persuade it to unleash its anger elsewhere. Perhaps against her forgotten drow kin... 

Here's a close-shot of the adventure's layout:

Collaborator

I’m Krane and I run Stained Karbon Maps where you will find very high-quality battlemaps based in bizarre and fantastical locations and themes. My maps have a focus on utilizing perspective to create depth and elevation that isn’t common in normal top-down maps, this helps push a sense of scale and wonder when used.

I also focus a lot on vibrant color choices and interesting palettes that are pleasing to the eye, even in the gloomiest location you’ll find colors that pop! 🌙
