Classic Modules Today: H4 Throne of Bloodstone (5e)

ADD TO WISHLIST >

In 1988, TSR published the module named "The Throne of Bloodstone" with the code "H4." It was written by Douglas Niles and Michael Dobson as the culmination to the H-series, which came to be known as a high-level adventure series of modules. This module is the longest in the H-series, and like H2, it offers opportunities to use Battlesystem rules for the large-scale battles. Nonetheless, H4 provides a sufficiently flexible story to allow DMs to either use or ignore these mass combat components of the adventure. H4 consists of a 96-page story, with several maps for battle encounters and dungeon exploration through the Abyss.

This conversion guide allows DMs to run the original module with 5th Edition rules and provides a reference sheet for encounters.

To use this conversion guide, you will need a copy of H4-The Throne of Bloodstone, originally available in hard copy and now for sale in digital format at DMsGuild.com.

Classic Modules Today: B4 The Lost City contains the OpenOffice/LibreOffice source files used to create the PDF. Visit Classicmodulestoday.com for instructions on creating your own classic module conversions and selling them on the DMs Guild.

What this Conversion Is, and What it Is Not: 

This conversion is for the original module, as it was written. Classic Modules Today conversions are designed to convert the magic items, monsters, traps, and other key statistics from the original module into 5th edition. These guides set the adventure in the Forgotten Realms, and may offer some additional notes on running the adventure, or suggestions for extra encounters, but they are primarily conversions that are faithful to the original module. 

Per guidelines from One Book Shelf and Wizards of the Coast, we are not permitted to revise or reinvent these adventures; we may only convert the above elements over to their corresponding 5th Edition counterparts.

Wizards of the Coast really should take this series and reinvent it for 5e. The originals served as a great culmination for my first campaign as a DM way back in 1988/89. I would love to see it reimagined the way they redid the Temple of Elemental Evil.

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.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
