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

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Title

The Tower of Transmutation 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 Transmutation as an alternate to those described on page 257 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: 

The party will be able to enter the Tower of Transmutation through a hole on the second floor. After they enter the tower, the party will find a strange device capable of creating magen servants. Next, the party will encounter a strange puzzle that requires pushing a pressure plate on the ceiling of the tower. Once the plate is pushed, the party will be able to access a secret vault beneath the floor of the tower, which contains a plaque on which the eighth line of the Rite of the Arcane Octad is written. The party may search the upper floors of the tower if they are in need of resources to help them push the pressure plate on the ceiling, or if they are unsure of what to do next. In the upper floors, the party may discover helpful magic items or a sentient candelabra named Luminous.

Another solid adventure, good puzzle, I really appreciate the side view of the tower. With this my party finished up their experience in the towers of Ythryn and had a great time doing it! [...]

I really enjoyed the entire expanded tower series -- I keep recommending them to anyone who runs Chapter 7. Ythryn deserves lots of extra love. This one is unique and a tad silly but you can make the silliness more of a minor in-joke and less ov [...]

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.
