The end of the year approaches. I hope RPG games were not suspended and that you all have a session soon. We certainly will play on Tuesday and Thursday next week.
This map and adventure is about a ludus (gladiator school) located under the arena. This location is important because three different ludi in the city compete for the best performances. The one with the best warriors gains control of the facilities under the arena and a 1% profit from the ticket sales. These two things are a good incentive for the three ludi to do their best. The ludus in the arena changes hands one or twice a year on average.
Traditionally, the people in the ludus are prisoners or slaves. They train for the gladiatorial games against their will. The average life of a gladiator is a few weeks but a few of them have managed to stay alive and relevant for a few years. These individuals become the stuff of local legends. They become folk heroes for the entertainment-thirsty populace that attends the games.
The map is included in all the usual formats. Roll version and a PDF with the adventure lore is included as always.
Thanks for your support and I hope you have a joyful end of the year.
Until the next one, Elven Tower.
