YOU MEET IN AN AMBUSH

You Meet in an Ambush is a one-shot adventure for Draw Steel optimized for five 1st-level heroes. It works as a gentle introduction to the Draw Steel system, demonstrating the main mechanics that make up the game.

This one-shot is based on Bay of Blackbottom, the introductory adventure included in the first backer playtest packet of the game, but with a few twists. You Meet in an Ambush assumes that the characters don’t know each other and gives them a reason to become a party with a common goal. It also takes place in an environment well-known to any fantasy TTRPG player: a tavern. The hope is that this adventure can be the beginning of any fantasy campaign, easing D20 players into the heroic gameplay from a familiar place.

FEEDBACK

This is the first adventure I have ever designed, so expect a few rough edges. I tried to mirror Bay of Blackbottom’s structure and encounters as much as possible exactly because I thought it was a great adventure, but I might have messed something up.

If you have any constructive feedback about the adventure, please let me know! You can tweet at me @thedicesociety or send me an email at contact@thedicesociety.com.

Thanks for playing!
