Upon the Powder River

Upon the Powder River is designed for 3-5 characters in the mid-level range. It begins in the town of Elne and consists of a number of loosely connected encounters for the characters as they travel through the Darkenfold. They begin as soon as the characters enter the wood and lead them to and down the Powder River.

This adventure combines overland travel to and from the village of Willowbreak, it involves challenges both combat and role playing. It is not a traditional adventure module that consists of one dungeon or one goal, but rather consists of a series of short adventures, which in turn offer the enterprising Castle Keeper the opportunity for numerous side treks and adventures. It is easy to port into any game and sections can be played or skipped over as needed.

Though set in the official Castles & Crusades world of Aihrde, and a sister book to Mortality of Green and Shades of Mist it is a complete stand alone adventure or can be used as a series of encounters. It can be adapted to any homebrew or published setting. As with many of the adventure modules published by TLG, Upon the Powder River offers numerous, short-encounter areas. Included within are To the Damenheit Bridge, Thorns for Beer, River Walk, Golden Shingles and Breaking Heads. Upon the Powder River explores the eastern reaches of the Darkenfold, from the Perth Timberland, to the Damenheit Bridge, to the town of Willowbreak and beyond to the wild and dangerous Bent's Trading Post.
