A sinister force of nature grips the valley ... and only you can stand against it!
An Adventure for Draw Steel
Dark Heart of the Wood is a 2nd-level Draw Steel quest for 3-6 heroes. This quest is intended to be a one to two session, monster-of-the-week-style adventure: a memorable, early stepping-stone in the heroes' career. Heroes can expect to earn 4-7 victories across the course of the quest.
In This Adventure...
The village of Byre dies. Drought brings famine and no one's seen a merchant or carter in weeks. “Carts don't make it out the other end anymore,” they say. None of them know why, but the heroes may soon find out once they face off with the thorns of the terrible Threxyls!
Dark Heart of the Wood assumes you understand how to play and run Draw Steel. If you have never played before, we highly recommend you install the Draw Steel system from the Foundry Virtual Tabletop application and try out the free adventure Road to Broadhurst.
This Foundry module contains:
- 10+ unique Actors with dynamic tokens.
- New treasures and rewards, including a new Title and 2 leveled Treasures.
- An exciting rollable table for generating villager names!
- Linked journals containing rollable enrichers for all power tests.
The whole adventure has been produced for Foundry Virtual Tabletop, with tokens, maps, and journals to guide you and your party through the story.
