Awesome Outdoors Adventure - Shrine of Iridescent Tears
🕑 Added 2021-12-30 18:05:32 +0000 UTCMerry Holidays Traveler! An ancient order of druids lived in the great forest long before human civilizations settled the land and fought over the borders only they saw. Then, the druids cared for the forest and all things living. They built a pavilion-shaped shrine in the forest from where they oversaw everything. They were the shepherds of the land, the protectors of the living, and the guides of the forces of nature.
Alas, the otherworldly druids were summoned forth by their deity in the Woodlands Realm. The druids were sad to leave the forest they had cared for thousands of years but obeyed their orders. They shall return someday. But, being immortal, their return might occur thousands of years in the future. In the meanwhile, the Shrine of Iridescent Tears is an arcane place of power that may unveil sacred mysteries to characters that visit this location.
This is a level 3 adventure with a bit of exploration, combat, and exploration of an ancient magical location! Here's a low-def preview of this illustration:
Here's a close-up of the swampy area outside of the swamp thing's lair and the first underground chamber where a bush of luminescent fungi provides dim light.
The large, damp chamber contains a shallow pond connected to an underground waterways system. The swamp thing emerges from one of these ponds to protect its lair and secure an easy meal. Will the characters be a problem to it?
