- Under Stillwater - Level-3 adventure.
The Settlers of Stillwater Outpost have been dealing with trouble for weeks now. Tools vanish, livestock disappear in the night, and strange forms seem to flit through the darkened bows of the Deepfen. The townsfolk are seeing monsters. Two days ago, they finally caught one. - Frogsong - Level-4 adventure.
A bonfire burns in the choked depths of the Deepfen. Those who light the fire of war sing and dance in its glow, preparing for the glorious battle to come. But the sleepy settlement of Stillwater doesn’t hear their battle cries. All they can hear is frogsong. - Frogs in the Well - Level-5 adventure.
The settlers of Stillwater have been watching the swamp fearfully for weeks now. Maybe they should have been looking down instead.
A Drought of Thorns (level-3 fifth-edition adventure) - $25+ patrons.
The adventure comes with digital maps for online play.
Angering a king is a dangerous enterprise. Kings have a penchant for not only extracting their due but also drawing out the process, ensuring that offenders understand the severity of their error. The Pumpkin King is no different. Thus, when he decreed that the Sovereign would be responsible for extracting his tithe from Windvale, she immediately identified Ravannae “the Thorn” as a prime candidate for the task at hand. Ravannae would ensure the locals never forget that one does not simply anger a king.

Thanks for letting us know. We'll take a look.
Hey Guys, I've noticed a little mistake in the puzzle "The Frogs Who Wished for a King" I tried the riddle myself to check out how hard it was and I just couldn't figure out, how in the world the last clue should work with the rest of it. Until I read the solution that was. While on the scroll its written like this: "And the one, both first and last, took a stand between the *imprisoned* and the observant." In the solution the riddle has a different wording with: "And the one both first and last got between the *twins* and the observant" So I think the scroll got overlooked during the final check or something :D But as usual great work! I really enjoy the Lair Magazine and all the bonus content.
