Tendrils of Saltmarsh Part 2

Gellan Primewater feels his enterprise may be in danger. He has sent his eldest daughter to investigate.

A local official has found a message in a wine bottle, a plea for help. Worried about affairs at the winery he wants the party to investigate and make sure nothing there is threatening.

This adventure is presented as APL 8 (adjustable) and is intended to fill a level gap left in the Ghosts of Saltmarsh hardcover book. It ties into several items found at the Haunted House and on the Sea Ghost and extends the lore of the area.  This adventure takes 4 to 8 hours to play through.

Inside you'll find:

  • Maps: Eight maps depicting different areas of the island and the large Priory of the Preeminent.  There is also a map of the Empty Net in Saltmarsh.
  • Ship: Statblock for a new ship called a Cargo Schooner.
  • Creatures: Ten new creature statblocks.
  • Magic items: Eight new magic items

This adventure helps build upon the fantastic area Ghosts of Saltmarsh has created and strengthens a campaign using that book, though it can be run as a one-shot as well.

Oh no. Nothing show stopping I hope. I'm always happy to add people to my list of who I can all on for projects.
First though, I better kick this back through my quality assurance process. Clearly the first time around wasn't sufficient. Oddly this pdf had a weird map in it once as well that I have since updated. I wonder if somehow I updated the wrong copy.

I'll get this fixed ASAP

Yeah, for example, I noticed in the first adventure, Sigurd's Island, that the "Redscales" are referred to as "Rescales" at least a couple times. I'd love to help, just let me know!

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.
