Northgate Outpost

Faithful recreation of an old-school favorite classic, using notes from actual p&p play. With plenty of customized monsters, items, dialogs, quests and crafting, this campaign is packed with low-level encounters. Campaign will take your characters to level 6 and maybe 1/4 through that.

"Adventures at the outpost at the north end of the Selenica valley".

"The four of you meet in the city square reading a public posting for adventurers needed to boldly brave the borderlands of the NorthGate Outpost against bandits, humanoids and monsters. You arrange a meeting with your potential employer, the mayor of the city, and meet with her the next day."

Warning: There are few guardrails at the beginning of things to prevent you from stumbling onto unbeatable encounters, and encounters that are meant for a quest. This was my old-school method of dungeon mastering, actually given this module as an example. The safest bet to collect the most reward is to pay attention to what the quests are asking you to do, but it is also a legitimate approach to ignore all dialogs and hack-n-slash as much as you can find. In fact, given the flexibility in choosing your own path, there are multiple exit scenarios.

The campaign allows levels 1 - 4 to allow a player to load up a 4th level party, skip the wilderness and head directly into the caves. Otherwise, I would recommend starting at level 1.
