Dark Paths: Dream Weaver (PDF)
The Fifth Edition content in this module continues our exploration down new, darker paths for adventurers to follow. Beginning down one of these dark paths leads to power but at a perilous cost. Heroes of the dark face insurmountable odds and face challenging decisions whether it is worth the cost to fight against such forces by tapping into the same source of insidious influence as their terrible foes. What secrets will the blazing light of the Shimmer reveal? In this new scenario format we're creating dynamic encounters you can drop into your game at any time. Not quite an adventure and much more than a random encounter these circumstances engage characters and players with components to construct their own unique story with guidance from the Game Master. Future modules connect together to form non-linear narrative tools for your group to create their own unique stories. In this module a shocking situation pulls adventurers into an arcane investigation. They’ll encounter a rare individual — a dwelf — with her own unusual magical perspective and when the party least expects, <strong>Something Happens!</strong> A tragic new creature’s last gasp reveals a dangerous device right under their noses. <ul> <li>Adventure scenario for four 10th level characters</li> <li>New Playable Race -- Dwelf</li> <li>New Magic Item -- Orb of Dreams</li> <li>New Monster -- Hollow One</li> <li>New Equipment -- Ritualist's Supplies</li> </ul>
