Shadowdark - Mini-adventure Cards

Five complete adventures, five heavy-cardstock cards, no prep required. Each Five Mini-Adventure card fits on two printed sides - enough room for a pickup session, short enough to wrap inside an evening.

The tone of Shadowdark sits in every one. An antediluvian monolith crawling with forgotten horrors. An opulent prison-palace sinking into the sea, where a deadly poison grows between the walls. A temple where cultists of the Elephant God guard a legendary jewel. A twisted cavern full of pirate treasure and bloodsucking stingbats. A leprechaun's redoubt where fey trickery hides a fabled pot of gold.

One of these adventures earned the rare 'The Best' rating from Bryce Lynch at tenfootpole.org - a verdict that carries weight in OSR circles. The scenarios span levels 3 through 6, ready for groups that have already cleared their early hurdles.

These cards live in your bag, waiting for the session that needs them. The kind of tools wardens reach for when prep time is short and the table is hungry for something with teeth.

Drop one on the table tonight. Light the torches, and see what's in the dark.
