This module is lovingly crafted with attention to classic Spelljammer lore! Blackjammer's Cutlass is an artifact from Dragon Magazine Issue #159 (July 1990) and the Book of Artifacts (1997). Inside the first New Spelljammer Classics adventure module, there are 79 pages of wildspace terror exploring the legend of dread pirate-lich Blackjammer and his plans for the mortal realm! Escape his plague ship! Capture his Cutlass! Explore his Lair! Battle the Revenge on the astral seas and put an end to the lich once and for all!
Adventure Tier: This adventure module is a dedicated horror for players of any level in the tradition of Curse of Strahd, but assumes that players are between 3rd and 6th level to begin the first mission. Save DCs early in the book are set for Tier I and II adventuring parties, with tougher challenges awaiting players at the lich-pirate's island lair. Many challenges in this adventure cannot be easily overcome by direct combat, and even veteran characters will struggle to defeat Blackjammer aboard his ship.
