The Old Blood

An investigative city crawl adventure for Shadowdark RPG (or any OSR-style system), designed for experienced players levels 1-2

Set in the decaying city of Brannam, players unravel a web of fear, blood, and buried secrets. A local alchemist has begun killing in secret, rekindling old fears of an old terror. The city's decline threatens to spiral into collapse, and far below, something older and hungrier waits to wake.

This adventure includes:

3 separate dungeons (The flooded Sewers, the forgotten Catacombs, and the cursed Ruins of Edric von Braech's keep)

Open ended design and layered mysteries with multiple outcomes and failure states

A fully explorable city with random encounters, evolving factions and escalating panic.

Custom rules for spell mishaps, nightly murder checks and decay events as Brannam unravels

Modular content designed to drop into your campaign
