Hello and welcome, adventurers and Game Masters!
This is a spooky, holiday themed one-shot module designed for an evening’s worth of adventuring on Samhain, or as it is better known in the modern world, Halloween!
SYNOPSIS: The adventure takes place in the quaint village of Coomchadalach, which lies on the borderlands between the nations of nations of Alderburgh and The Red Eagle Barony. This was a peaceful place where folk tended to respect themselves, each other and the law. Above all else they sought to keep the Balance, for their faith was that passed down from the druids of old, who still minister to the villagers here to this day.
Everything here was in Balance…until recently that is, when a group of foolhardy, young travelling “heroes” raided the abandoned graveyard at the end of the hollow, disturbing the rest of the undead headman imprisoned there, and released his spirit to prey upon the populace of Coomchadalach. Now, the evil spirit has returned nightly to exact its revenge on both the young heroes and the descendants of the original villagers who sentenced him to death so long ago! Each night it takes a prisoner, burns their abode, and drags them back to its hovel in the abandoned graveyard, there to be slain and brought back as a new recruit in its army of the undead!
The Balance cannot be maintained now, as the foul, murderous thing these young adventurers have released is none other than a supernatural undead being called a dullahan, better known in some parts as a Headless Horseman! Worst still the dullahan is working in league with its demonic patron, a greater power of the hells, who has plans to crush the forces of Light and take over the known world, shattering the Balance and plunging the entire world into Darkness!
You and your friends have just ridden into the village of Coomchadalach. You are not quite sure how you ended up here as you had no intention of doing so, but time and again circumstance on the road (a felled tree, a flooded ford, and etc.) forced you in this direction, and so here you are. You quickly realize your help is needed as these folk are facing an extraordinary, otherworldly foe they cannot hope to defeat. However, as seasoned adventurers, this is what you do! A travelling priestess named Mother Mabon and the village council are offering a sizeable reward if you will defeat the dullahan, rescue the kidnapped villagers, and help restore the Balance.
Will you help them, heroes?
