Exposure | New 3rd-Level Adventure for Fifth Edition
🕑 Added 2020-08-18 14:11:33 +0000 UTCExposure is a Fifth Edition adventure for three to seven characters of 3rd-to-5th-level. The adventure is optimized for five characters with an average party level (APL) of 3. Characters who survive this adventure should earn enough experience to reach the 4th level. The adventure takes place in a chilly arctic environment. In the Omeria campaign setting, the northernmost point of Omeria, the Syhros Peninsula, works best for such a setting. Because frigid conditions are key to this story, make sure to review the rules for environmental hazards in Chapter 5 of the DMG.
Background
Once, Krasnovsk was a research outpost and commune for cultists of Vapul. Then, ten years ago, an event known only as “the Incident” instantly destroyed all of Krasnovsk’s inhabitants. Of course, they didn’t stay dead. A week later, they rose again as hungry shadows, driven by a compulsion to destroy all life.
The Incident was triggered by the village’s necromancer, an Anorian elf named Vuzeth. Vuzeth hide the devices around the compound then cut off escape. Vuzeth locked himself away in his chambers and listened as the villagers perished to the Strength-draining effects of the antilife weapons. Then, Vuzeth succumbed to the devices. His angry shadow still haunts his old chambers.
The northern Rasgaxes, drow, frost giants, and other sentient creatures who dominate the Syhros Peninsula all avoid the small hamlet. The land is cursed.

Monsters heal hit dice and take long rests like any creature! :)

Im excited to be running this for my group in a week or 2! Do you have any recommendations for roleplaying the wolves? Should they heal in between encounters, and by how much would be appropriate? (I have three 5th level players)
I'm having a hard time fitting the map grid with my software grid...what is the size of image to fit grids? Can't seem to have all the rooms with fitting grid lines...help anyone?

Dave, The past few adventures I have printed off, have had HUGE margin issues. The bottom of all the pages have a black bar across the bottom, and the front page most just prints in black. No descriptive text what so ever... Any solutions to fixing this?? I should mention that this only happens, when I print wirelessly... ??? Weird huh.

Is there a tier that offers a printer-friendly version? I have a hard time running from a screen, and don't want to subject my printer to that much ink use if I can avoid it.
DM Dave
Yep. I just rethemed his map for the village. It's the same map.

Is the map link correct? It leads to a 'ruined canal city', not a village.
I have discord, I couldn’t find the channel info
DM Dave
No it’s great! Are you in the discord? We’ve got a channel there ❤️
Not trying to be picky but I think I remember you like when people point of typos! (I hope)
Should read “Vuzeth hid” not “hide” on the second paragraph under background.
