The remains of an ancient hobgoblin daimyo have finally been traced to a museum in Baldur’s Gate, and now his people wish to recover his body and bring him home. However, something shadowy seems to dog their steps – is it angry museum staff members trying to recover what they think is theirs, or something darker and far more sinister...
A four-hour one-shot adventure for four 8th-level players explores themes of repartiation of remains, respect for the dead, discussion of memory and legacy, and tradition. You take up the roles of four hobgoblin warriors sent to collect the remains of a long-dead daimyo and bring him home.
With fantastic art from Miss Alppy and Joshua Clarke, this adventure is one part social-historical commentary, and one part dungeon-delving horror. Enter the barrows and see what is within.
