The Curse of Riverwood [a spooky D&D one-shot]

About the adventure

The shadows grow long and the fog rises as your party's fifth day of traversing these quiet and desolate woods nears its end, with the promise of a restful night's sleep in a real bed still several days away. The path you all have chosen from Redleaf to Alvirad looked like a shortcut on the map but doesn't feel like it now. The trees crowd close and thick in this ancient forest. The air smells of sap and rain. Suddenly, a small cabin comes into view through a break in the trees. The glow from its windows paints the mist a soft orange. This is a single-session adventure of horror and spookiness set in the D&D world of Eberron for 7th-level characters. Players new to D&D are welcome! We play on Roll20, using D&D Beyond for our character sheets and dice rolls using the Beyond20 browser extension. We use Discord for chat, voice and text only.
