Expanded Edition

An Adventure for Character Levels 7-8

Remember the good old days, when adventures were underground, NPCs were there to be killed, and the finale of every dungeon was the dragon on the 20th level? Those days are back. Dungeon Crawl Classics don't waste your time with long-winded speeches, weird campaign settings, or NPCs who aren't meant to be killed. Each adventure is 100% good, solid dungeon crawl, with the monsters you know, the traps you fear, and the secret doors you know are there somewhere.

Aerie of the Crow God was nominated for Best Adventure in the 2004 Gen Con ENnie Awards. This special expanded edition includes an all-new sequel to the original adventure! Lady Elisabeth Pendour beseeches the heroes for their help. They must recover a key that was on her husband's body when he perished trying to clear an ancient tower. The tower was once a coastal fortress, but now it lies in ruins, occupied by black-feathered rook harpies who worship a foul carrion crow demon. Lord Pendour sought to free his subjects from fear by clearing the rampaging rooks from their nests. But he failed, and unless the heroes can recover his body, the crow god will come for his wife, too...

This was my first experience buying and running a module in this series. My players all seemed to have a good time with it, and I found the module left various plot points open to return for future adventures (if ever I felt like creating them). There [...]

Good adventure. Felt second part was well beyond character ability.

In exploring the ruined fortress, the party must fight through clever and unscrupulous enemies who make the most of their advantages, particularly over non-flying enemies (well judged at this encounter level), foul necromancy and assorted unpleasantness o [...]

This is the first of this series that I bought (due to being the right level for my players), and I'd certainly buy others. It's got a 1st edition look, but the adventure is more sophisticated really than a simple dungeon hack. What it *doesn't* do is [...]

As advertised, an old-school hack-n-slash adventure with the flavor of early AD&D modules. The relationship of some of the maps to their keyed descriptions is a bit vague, but otherwise the quality is okay. The illustrations are very much in keeping w [...]
