ADD TO WISHLIST >

Red text that reads RING OF THE BATTLE MAIDEN

A classic D&D-inspired module designed for new players and new DMs!

A level 1 adventure for 2-6 players

SYNOPSIS

A legend speaks of a lost ring that belonged to famed battle maiden Dagmar the Unyielding: traverser of the realms, feller of beasts and giants and all those who dared to stand against her. The ring, lost among the Moonshae Isles, is imbued with the power of her might. Many have sought out the ring, but few have uncovered it. 

The ring is shielded by the Daughters of the Gray, a fierce and fearsome band of warriors as tough and relentless as the coastal landscape from which they were hewn. The Daughters, who reside in a Norland settlement called Kvinne, have made an oath to Dagmar, whom they revere and respect, to protect the ring at all costs. Only those the Daughters deem worthy are allowed to get close to it. 

For the ring is not a piece of jewelry: it’s a place. In fact, it’s an arena. 

Prepare your weapons — welcome to the Ring of the Battle Maiden!

Interior of RING OF THE BATTLE MAIDEN

Loving the story here, but sadly found this too late after my party already started. I would love to run this for my group, though. Any ideas on scaling it up to say level 3-4? Should I raise the other contenders levels to my PC's levels? Thanks!

Hi Sam! So glad you enjoyed the story! I would definitely raise the stats of the opponents to your PC's levels. One way to do this is by using some of the NPC stat blocks in the Monster Manual/Volo's Guide. I can look through it and see what would work well.

Another option for leveling is to have the PCs fight monsters instead of other contenders. You could do a PvP match in the party, and then have the winners go against some more appropriately leveled monsters.

You can replace the Norland Troll with an ogre (if you have Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, the Ogre Chain Brute would work well) to make it a harder battle.

You're not the first to ask me about leveling so that may come in a future update. :) In the meantime, let me know how I can help!

Great suggestions! The Ogre Chain Brute would be awesome. I'll definitely work some of that in. Really, really great story btw. Thanks!

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.
