Module | Lair of the Black Spider!
🕑 Added 2022-03-01 19:45:11 +0000 UTCI am pleased to showcase my first Module released under the Open Gaming License for D&D on DriveThruRPG, Lair of the Black Spider.
The module presents an exiled drow wizard searching for powerful relics that has created a lair in a cavernous system below ruined village. Its inception came after discussions regarding the Lost Mine of Phandelver, and how some people wanted either a different final showdown with the protagonist, Nezznar, or something leading up to the final confrontation that lent him more depth, purpose and backstory, so I created this module.
The cave system is accessible via an empty well, for which I chose a ruined village (easy choice for Conyberry) to make that region both relevant to the campaign and a reasonably remote place for the lair to exist.
I also wrote the 8-page module (my first one!) for the lair, which would certainly take my group at least a session to run. I decided to write the module in a more generic fashion, so people could use it for any particular campaign/adventure they were running, but the content would fit seamlessly with LMoP's story arc.
I've attached the first page here (you can preview the first [3] on the site), and have a special Patron-only 50% discount set up for it, if you decided you'd like to save that to surprise your party (especially those that have run it before): https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?discount=98284a0c97
If you decide to pick it up, I would also LOVE a rating/review, since I'm just getting started with making these and it would help me out a ton.
I'd also love to hear your thoughts! =)
Best,
Jeff @ Morvold

Level 5 -- it's a fairly prolonged engagement depending on how they approach, where they explore and the will of the dice. ;) It also may depend on group composition and the way your players play -- you may want/need to make some adjustments if your players tend to metagame and run minmax stat monsters, or if they lean more heavily into character and RP.

What character levels is it designed for?
