Two nights ago, a raiding party of orcs and goblins was spotted in the woods near the quiet village of Birch Hollow. Last night, they struck. Now, you and the few survivors are fleeing for your lives.
You’ve reached the entrance to Yid Garuk, a long-abandoned dwarven stronghold buried in the nearby hills. If you can navigate its shadowy halls and reach the inner sanctum, you may be able to barricade yourselves inside—at least long enough for help to arrive.
But the path ahead is treacherous. The ruins are riddled with traps, cloaked in darkness, and home to things far worse than goblins. And close behind, a war band of orcs, goblins, and snarling wargs is on your trail.
Can you survive the depths of Yid Garuk before they catch you?
Based on The Ruins of Yid Garuk by Jake House, this one-shot adventure is a gauntlet (also called a funnel) for 0-level characters using the Shadowdark rules. Pregenerated characters provided.
About Shadowdark: Shadowdark RPG is a fantasy adventure game where you and your companions delve into buried ruins, lost cities, spider-infested forests, and even fearsome dragon lairs in search of gold and glory. It is rules-light and intuitive, encouraging quick decisions rather than hunting through the rulebook for answers. It is a call back to old editions of Dungeons & Dragons, but incorporates modern mechanics and concepts to streamline play.
