It's just a sketch, but a good one, and done with gusto. Map is funny and evocative.
I really like the visual ofbeing inside a giant skeleton. Fun little adventure!
Great little adventure you've cooked up here!
Charming map. The symbols for map POIs and the two monsters are just enough to communicate what is what without labeling them outright,... except for maybe the starting point on the map. It wasn't apparent that S1 was the starting point.
I could see this as a dungeon that some NPC sends some Level 1's to in order to prove themselves for future work.
Excellent map! Tickled by the set up with the dungeon being run by a lich rather than being inhabited by it.
Tons of potential here, but it needs some work. There's a lot of blank space in here which could be used to further flesh out the adventure after some reformatting. From what I've noted of other submissions, lots of "system-agnostic" modules have rough encounter descriptions for GMs to work with adapting and balancing to their system of choice, whereas system-specific modules have each encounter properly stated up. There's an awkward middle ground here with a specific system and some stats, but the rest left to DIY.
If you decide to update this after the review period I'd suggest leaning into the system-agnostic vibes or fully 5e, which will help determine what to fill the blank space with. Would love to see it if you do! There's some fun ideas here I'd enjoy seeing more of.
The first meeting with Dave will be loads of fun. Love the map. Cheers.
I really like the DIY esthetic and how straight to the point it goes. There are some world building gems in there (I need to know more about Dave, but also the SphynxLock™️ is a tease for a world of interesting objects), but it also feels a bit like a videogame with the crystal barrier and the requirement to just clear the area of enemies.
Feels very easy to pick up and run for any table.
It's a awesome adventure for people starting out in 5e! It's simple and straight to the point. The statblocks are good also. I would love a longer version, but other than that, good work!
i appreciate how very DIY it is
