Dungeon Crawl Classics #23: The Sunken Ziggurat

ADD TO WISHLIST >

An Adventure for Character Levels 5-7

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.

A recent earthquake has exposed an ancient ziggurat long buried in the earth. When the heroes are called to investigate, they find more than just a buried structure. The dragon-queen Tiamat was slain on this site, and the ziggurat was built eons ago to seal her taint. Now that it has resurfaced, evil magics flow into the surrounding lands! The heroes must descend into this ancient edifice, defeat the monsters that dwell within its bowels, and replace that seal that prevents Tiamat's evil from leaking into the world!

If you enjoy this adventure, look for the rest of the Dungeon Crawl Classics series!

Features:

  • A Bablyonian-style dungeon crawl featuring fantastic themed encounters.
  • Interlinked puzzles that must be solved to advance further in the adventure.
  • 7 illustrated player handouts.
  • 11 new themed monsters to enhance the Babylonian mystique.

Writer: Richard Pocklington

The premise for this adventure is simple: a recent earthquake has exposed a long-buried structure and for whatever reason, the party goes to explore it. Needless to say there's all sorts of bad stuff around and the looming threat of evil being released [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
