Ythryn Expanded Tower of Divination - maps and extra content for Rime of the Frostmaiden

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Title

The Tower of Divination was one of eight towers of magic in the ancient floating Netherese city of Ythryn. Now the tower, along with the city, lies trapped in a frozen tomb. The wizards of this great tower are either long dead or have lost their minds to madness. Yet the tower still holds powerful magic waiting to be tapped.

This supplement is one of several short expansions to the locations in Ythryn with the following objectives:

  • Expand on the Eight Arcane Towers, making each one its own mini-dungeon adventure with exciting challenges and clear direction for the DM.
  • Provide Detailed Maps, for an immersive experience in person or on a virtual tabletop, rather than a brief 'theatre-of-mind' scene.
This supplement presents the events that occur in the Tower of Divination as an alternate to those described on page 243–245 of Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden. As always, it is up to you how much of the content you want to use. It's perfectly fine to use some parts of this supplement while discarding others, or simply let the ideas presented here inspire new ideas of your own. This supplement assumes a party of 4–6 characters of 9–11th level.

Adventure Summary: After their arrival at the Tower of Divination, characters will face a few magen guards and encounter strange latent magic in the planetarium, at the base of the tower. This magic will lead to a premonition of an imminent nothic attack. After the characters fight off the nothics, potentially using parts of the planetarium to their advantage, they can continue to the observatory at the top of the tower. In the observatory, characters encounter High Diviner Apius, who has been transformed into a green slaad. Through a peaceful conversation or a search of the tower, the characters will discover that the next line of the Rite of the Octad resides in Apius's missing spellbook. At this point, the characters must decide if they want to risk using a dangerously powerful telescope at the top of the tower to find it.

PURCHASER
the first of my groups have finally arrived in Ythryn and these alternative versions of the Towers are fantastic. They encountered this particular tower in our latest session and me the enhanced Nothics, oh boy, were they not ready for that. Despite being much higher level (currently 14th) as we've played my own modified version of the story, an ambush by a Preeminent and 5 stalkers severely messed them up before they even entered the tower - Thank you Daniel 3:-)

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.
