About the adventure

The sudden rise of an unfamiliar goddess has caused panic within established faiths and nervous murmurs in noble courts. Within a few seasons, her cult has gained hundreds of followers and collected untold tithes—gold, silver, heirlooms, even land deeds—all offered freely to a goddess unheard of a year ago. Peasants, merchants, even minor nobles have emptied their coffers into the cult’s hands. Disciples call her Shulashra, the Radiant Queen, and claim she grants miracles: cripples walk, nightmares cease, and the faithful are granted “Ascension” to her side. Her temple is a half-sunken ruin, once dedicated to the long-abandoned nature goddess Yelensa, deep in the overgrown Mikran Swamp. Pilgrims reach it by skiff or foot, wading through mire and biting flies. Those who return speak of a radiant goddess. Many do not return at all. This is a one shot adventure made by Necrotic Gnome and Exalted Funeral for the Old School Essentials package

What Ryan brings to the table

I am a rule of cool DM so to speak, I try to follow RAW unless you have a good case on why something should work. I try to run balanced but challenging combat while also running engaging puzzles while allowing for RP opportunities. I utilize detailed maps and scenery descriptions as well as background music

Homebrew rules

-Using your full action to take a potion gives the maximum healing. -Throwing a health potion does 10ft radius splash healing for half of the roll
