Dead God Salvage | New Fifth Edition Adventure for 1st-Level (John Kelly) (Patreon)

Dead God Salvage is a Fifth Edition adventure designed for four characters with an average party level (APL) of 1. The party must explore the corpse of an ancient black dragon and foil its minions’ efforts to resurrect it. This adventure takes place a few hours away from the town of Blackwater but can easily be placed in any campaign setting with a swamp.

Background

The ancient black dragon Rylboss’s corpse lies broken in the battlefield where she fought her brother Vagerand. However, she will not rest there much longer.

Rylboss had bound servants to her flesh and bone as a failsafe. Upon her death, numerous undead rose, led by an octopus-like amalgamation of lizardfolk corpses. The amalgamation knew two things: how to resurrect its master and the rewards for doing so. It has finished constructing a portal to the afterlife inside Rylboss’s corpse that will allow her to return and is about to activate it. When that happens, the region will become tied to the concept of death, making Blackwater uninhabitable within days.
