[Where Evil Lives] The Hanging Tree (2024 Rules!)

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

Every story has a villain, and every villain has a lair. Do you have what it takes to venture forth into those dark and remote places Where Evil Lives? ~The Hanging Tree~ An infamous band of orcish mercenaries known as the the Ivory Throne have been wreaking havoc across the dales. Their merciless leader, Dohma Raskovar, has proven a difficult orc to pin down. Investigators have been searching for the Throne's hideout for weeks. Fresh evidence seems to lead to the Hanging Tree- a quiet roadside tavern. Could this innocuous alehouse be hiding a bloody secret? ~~~ We will use Roll20, (for its VTT) D&DBeyond (for its character sheets/content sharing) and Discord (for voice chatting.) Battlemaps, ambient music and dynamic lighting will be provided for immersive gameplay. LGBTQ+ and beginner friendly!
