Curtain Call: A Sharn Adventure

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Curtain Call: A Sharn Adventure is an introductory Eberron adventure for 1st to 4th level characters. Written by Keith Baker (creator of Eberron), Robert Adducci (Guild Adept), Wayne Chang, this is a great adventure for new Dungeon Masters to Eberron and includes sidebars to help DMs and players get familiar with the world of Eberron.

A paying job in Sharn to find out what happened to a missing noble turns into a myriad of street chases, personal grudges, spy agencies, cultists, and charlatans as you take an exciting tour through the City of Towers.

This is a DMs Guild Adepts product. The DMs Guild Adept Program was started and is managed by Wizards of the Coast. It brings together some of the best talents creating for the DMs Guild for creative development. DMs Guild Adepts products are identified by the gold ampersand logo.

This title includes a .mod file for use with Fantasy Grounds!

Hi! Excited to run this one shot as a novice DM next week but was hoping for guidance on which stat blocks to use for Echo and his cultists - it is not provided in the main adventure!

I am having a difficult disconnect with the main part of this adventure. She hired the cult to kill him, how does she know they did not do this part before sending a PI after them? I assume she gave the cultists the knowledge of where he is going to be.

Hello y'all,
Can anyone tell me the name of the missing noble in this adventure? I want to include it as the front-page news of a sharn inquisitive newspaper I am making as one of several adventure hooks for an upcoming session 0 I am running, but I don't want to buy it only for my players to ignore it entirely in favor of another adventure (I am p. broke atm, so saving every dollar counts for me right now haha).

Drevan Ir'Roole but note, he doesn't get murdered - the adventurers are trying to stop him from getting murdered.

I loved this and look forward to running "Trust No One", but is there going to be any more in this series?

Really love this, looking forward to running it soon.

One question, are there plans to make a color map of the theatre?

Quick question! Does anyone happen to know who the artist for some of the portraits (namely Max Murlock's and Jayree's) is? I don't *think* it's Sakimichan, but the book only has 'Various Artists' outside of her.

Thanks!

Played with a few friends over zoom last week and everyone had a really fun time!
It really encapsulates the flavour of Eberron and serves as a great introduction to the setting. As it was only my second time acting as a DM I appreciated how easy the adventure was for me to run whilst still providing a good level of variety and complexity for my players. For anyone wondering it took us (myself + three players) about 3 and a half hours to play through. I also had the tweak the combat encounters a little bit for three players, but that's to be expected.

Fair warning: the adventure is continued in Trust No One but beyond that there's nothing and it seems unlikely that the creators will ever finish it off. Still, there's enough teased and set up in the first two adventures for you to run with and write your own ending, which is what I'm planning to do.

Ran this yesterday for my group, who enjoyed it.

Some minor nitpicks and things to consider:
- Cover lists as 'levels 1 to 4' but the adventure contain no hints on how to scale combat challenges.
- page 7: The guard is staring down a half-elf, who then leaves. Nowhere is it mentioned who this is; I assumed this was the proprietor who wanted his Inn open for business and made up his story on the spot.
- page 12: encounter 'no friend of mine' is pretty bad for a level 1 party; suggest indicating to the players that they are very good at working together, and that they might need to consider some tactics to negate that benefit (ganging up on one of them). Maybe also have them flee when one is below 25% or both below 50% hit points.
- page 14: there are three encounters here that rhyme badly with events in Part 2, 'Trust No One'.
- page 17: combat challenge needs to be spiced up a bit even for level 2. I added some more enemies on top of a balcony near the entrance, firing...See more

How difficult will it be (scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being super easy and 10 being impossible) to convert this to the original 3.0/3.5 edition of Eberron?

I am looking for material that I can use to incorporate into a Morgrave University campaign and an adventure which takes a sight seeing tour of Sharn sounds like a perfect addition.

Very easy; there are a couple of combat encounters that need to be fixed, but those should be reasonably trivial to switch for similar low-level encounters.

This is a one-shot adventure runs 3-4 hours. It is in the level range for lvs. 1-4. Most will advance 1 level.

I'd say we spent about 3-4 hours on the module as well.

Great Adventure for a group getting started in Sharn. Taking the player's to multiple districts, gives some great insight for DM's and Player's into what you can expect in Sharn.

Enjoy seeing the love Eberron has gotten lately. I'm new to running the setting as a DM, but it's been something that's alway's interested me (since the day's I played DDO).

Maybe someone can help me out with a little Detail i can't seem to figure out: The gnome student made a song about "exploring the depths of Tower 13 and the Deep Hollows". No idea what this is a refrence to and haven't been able to look it up. Is this just some made up fluff or in refrence to something relevant? I just know my player's would have follow up questions, easy fix to change the songs subject, but now i'm interested.

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.
