In “Terror in Ravenswood,” a party of 4-5 characters (levels 1-3) is tasked by the village elder Othar to investigate an abandoned mine overrun by dangerous creatures. The adventure leads the players through the village of Ravenswood, deep into a goblin-infested mine, and ultimately to a climactic confrontation with the goblin warlord Grommok the Mighty, who guards a powerful cursed artifact: the Ring of the Crimson Moon. The adventure is divided into three parts, with two optional sidequests.
Part 1: The Village of Ravenswood
The players arrive in the small town of Ravenswood and meet key NPCs, including the village elder Othar, the innkeeper Drogathar, and the mysterious hunter Lars Stonefist. They learn about the dangers lurking in the abandoned mine, gather rumors and information, and may encounter the blacksmith Ghenna, whose daughters have been kidnapped by goblins.
Part 2: The Abandoned Mine
The players venture into the dark and treacherous mine, navigating through twenty rooms filled with goblin guards, deadly traps, environmental puzzles, and dangerous creatures including giant spiders, a mimic, and goblin patrols. They must use stealth, combat skills, and clever problem-solving to progress deeper into the mine toward Grommok’s lair.
Part 3: Confronting Grommok
The players face the goblin warlord Grommok the Mighty and his minions in a climactic battle. Upon defeating Grommok, they recover the Ring of the Crimson Moon, a powerful but cursed artifact that grants great strength and agility at the cost of slowly corrupting its wearer. The players then return to Ravenswood as heroes, setting the stage for a continuation of the story.
Sidequests
The adventure also includes two optional sidequests: “Roland the Miner Worker,” where the players travel to the nearby village of Meadowdale to meet a retired miner who provides valuable information and a map of the mine; and “Blacksmith’s Daughters,” where the players rescue Ghenna’s kidnapped daughters from a goblin camp.
