GLORY TO LORD HACHIKAWA OF THE BLACK RAIN

Standing 100 feet off the shores of the vast Sapphire Lake are the ruins of a small fortress standing atop a rocky islet. The fortress belonged to a lich posing as a warlord from the Kingdom of Old Hagada, but fell rapidly into ruin when the Shrouded Hero was able to pierce the lich with the Blade of Five Seals. The lich cursed the assassin and his incompetent guards with his final breath. He cursed them to the same fate, their bodies petrifying and all of their souls being sealed in the Sheath of Five Seals. Afterwards, the warlord’s armies were defeated on the battlefield and the fortress became abandoned.

AMAZING! This sounds so fun! I love the extra stuff going on and the initial premise is also really cool. Between that and the new monsters, items and magic items it's a great pick up.

Also, love the treasure variation. Having neat stuff that's not just gold is vital if you ask me!

A lean, mean player-thrilling machine of an adventure, this looks to be rich in history, setting and flexibility, but light on strict detail. The streamlined bullet points of relevant details make it swift and adaptable for GMs to use. Great work!
