Kobold Alone 2020 | New Fifth Edition Adventure for 1st to 4th-Level Characters
🕑 Added 2020-12-11 16:01:02 +0000 UTCKobold Alone is a Fifth Edition adventure designed for three to six characters of 1st to 4th level. The adventure is set in a large, nameless estate or mansion that can easily be placed into any setting. It also works perfectly as a one-shot or as a side quest in a larger campaign. The adventure intentionally keeps many of the details vague so you can place your own named NPCs and hooks into the setting without too much effort.
The Set-up
The characters hear a rumor that a local villain in the area recently set out to travel for a week to a distant city. Supposedly, their home is totally empty while they’re gone. And beyond a few locks on the doors and windows, there aren’t a whole lot of safety precautions. No matter what their reasons are for doing so, this is the perfect opportunity for the characters to break into the mansion. What the characters don’t know, however, is that the villain left behind a band of kobolds to protect their estate—the villain promised each of them a wheel of cheese as a reward. For a kobold, that’s a far greater reward than gold or gems. These crafty Draconian buggers are more-than-prepared to face burglars, trespassers, and anyone else who dares to enter the estate. They’ve set deadly traps and armed themselves with all manner of mundane weapons. After all, everyone knows that one kobold is a menace, two kobolds are a threat, and three or more kobolds are downright deadly.

I just joined as a Patreon to get this one-shot, but in the PDF only room 39-44 are described. Where is the rest?
So im prepping to run the last bit of this in 2 weeks(the basement), and the picture with numbers doesnt match the PDFs description of the numbers. Room 42 is the Pit on the north of the map, but is labeled as the room with the 4 dragon heads, which is Room 43 in the descriptions. Its also 43 in the preview pictures on this.
Hi there, I bought this on roll20 but I only see notes for 39 - 44, the Secret Basement. All of the other tokens are on the map, but nowhere in the notes does it mention what I am supposed to read off or tell the players as they move through the other floors of the room. Panicking because I am supposed to run this tonight!!
