The Devourer Awakens
A 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons campaign for characters from 1st to 12th level

When a cloud giant castle comes tumbling from the sky right into the characters’ path, they are confronted with the horrifying realisation that an ancient blue dragon named Rah-Ziel the Devourer has woken from his centuries of slumber, and is making his presence known once again in Faerûn.

After Hrungnir, king of the cloud giants reaches out to the characters for assistance, they are tasked with tracking down four dragon relics - powerful items made from the bones of a bronze dragon that are the Realms’ only hope to defeat Rah-Ziel.

Hey!

I have a question regarding the "Blood at the Auction" chapter. I don't understand sister Scorn's motivation for making Barak Coalhammer keep her candle. In what way does it beneft her for him to possess it?

Also I don't suppose there are any pictures of Father Tallcrown and Tabitha Fairal detached from their true identities? Because you can't show the pictures as they are to the playerswithout giving the game away which is a real shame!

Hi Jack,
Feel to invent any reason you like! In my mind, Sister Scorn has only just been freed from cult captivity, and Barak was looking after it for her while she was imprisoned. Because she's a hag, she wants to see mortals become corrupted. Perhaps part of the reason she's left it with him is to see if he'll use it for nefarious deeds himself, allowing her to claim his soul. Perhaps she even wants to see him sell it, so he'll owe her an even greater debt. Let your imagination run wild!

Regard portraits, the full roster of NPCs can be found here:

I have bought this and looking forward to running the full campaign soon!
I've re-worked a few of the maps for a Players version and I love the artwork!

Quick question - Chapter 3, Coalhammer hall. I'm just a bit confused - is it suppoed to be underground in Citadel Adbar? Or above ground nearby? It talks about approaching through a tunnel (think underground) - then talks about gardens and windows, and stables and someone arriving on a horse (think above ground?)? So a little confused.
I'd like to create some maps of the "complex" for better roleplaying on a VTT if the players want to sneak around the "hall" and whatever else (accomodation?).
Thanks so much :)

Hi Phil,

It's above ground nearby. I assume that characters travel through Citadel Adbar (underground) to reach it though, hence the tunnel description. Hope that clears things up!

So I am Dming this campaign now and at the auction and at the part for the magic item auction get the information the following table shows the winning bid for each item and who it is made by unless the character intervene but the tables just show who is interested in the items and not how much they are willing to pay, and just wondering for reference how much each character is interested in something that is not their main focused item.

Hi Greg,

Who ends up with the item can be decided at your discretion or at random out of the interested individuals. The price they pay can be determined by using the rules on pages 21-22.

How much the NPCs care about the other items is also up to you!

Thanks,
Josh

While I see that there are no player maps specifically, is there any reason some of the maps aren't DM maps? Notably the Guard Chambers for Chapter 4, as well as The Ruby Hauler. Also, there's no map for Chapter 3 at all. I get that with the individual rooms you can easily find maps that fit, but it seems a bit difficult to get a feel for the entire Hall and who can see what night activities when the map is absent

Hi John, because this campaign is an amalgamation of several previously published parts, there are some discrepancies between map styles. I've done my best to include maps that are useful for both DMs and players. Chapter 3 has no map because it's primarily a non-combat chapter, and because I didn't feel a map would add anything to the already clear and concise presentation of information for that chapter.

Just curious as to why there aren't any player maps. The map collection is fairly small, and it's such a huge benefit for DMs managing their games online.

I'm afraid that since publishing this adventure I've lost the original map files due to a laptop meltdown! This means I'd have to entirely remake each map from scratch.

Hey, I was thinking of only buying the "Blood of the Auction" module, but I saw this one as well. What are the differences between the two. It looks like the auction is part of this storyline, but it isn't shown anywhere on this module's page. My players are at level 6 currently and I wanted to include a story that is appropriate starting at that level. Thanks!

Hi Tanner,

Blood at the Auction, Beneath the Sands, and The Theocracy are all part of this larger campaign. They always have been, but only recently was I able to dedicate the time, effort, and funds to write it up in full!

You could of course buy those adventures separately, but you’ll lack an intro, connective tissue, and finale, as well as some art and maps.

I’d recommend scaling up the first two or three chapters (more monsters, hitpoints/damage, and higher DCs) to make them better fit a level 6 party. After that you could proceed as written!

Definitely! You could merge the two campaigns with ease - as long as you introduced the idea of the Dragon Relics around the same time or after the giant lords, you’d be able to run those chapters. You could even swap out Rah-Ziel for Imyrith or vice versa

This looks great! Instabuy for me based on how good Call from the Deep is. Quick question - any chance of making the non-map art work available as separate files (especially character portraits, cover art, chapter title art, that sort of thing)? I do almost all my playing on VTT, and so being able to use art for handouts to players is huge.

Thanks, can't wait to dig into the adventure itself and start planning to run it!

Hi, I'm currently reading your book (great stuff btw!) and I find that it's difficult looking for a specific table since it's not named. For example, on page 21 the DM is asked to roll from the following table and on the next page 3 tables are presented. It took me a while to understand that it refers to the first table while the rest were meant for another purpose. I think the addition of 'Table 1. Title' would be a huge help.

Also, I'm unclear on how the Items and Enchantment table (page 22) is meant to be used, or did I miss some explanation on the chapter?

Hi Shekinah,

That's a great idea - I'll add those table titles as soon as I can!

Those tables relate to the paragraph at the end of page 21 - Running the Auction. They are to be used if you want to give the characters a chance to engage more with the auction. You can use the first table to create a random item, the second to apply a minor enchantment to it, and the third to determine how much the starting price for the item is.

For example, let's say you want to create a random item. First, you roll a d10. The result is a 5. This means you have a ewer for sale (base value 2 gp). Next, you want to determine it's origin (d10 again). A result of 8 means the ewer is of giant origin (add 25 gp to the value - 27 gp total). We then roll a d10 to see what it's made from and get a 5 - it's an obsidian ewer of giant origin. Being made of obsidian means the value increases x7, so it's currently worth 189 gp. Finally, we roll on the feature column (d10) an get a 7. This means that the...See more

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.

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.
