For the Love of the Hangmans Noose (5e)
For the Love of the Hangman's Noose is a mini-adventure (set up as a complex random encounter)¸ which includes the statistics for a hangman tree (a creature from the 1st edition Monster Manual) that has been converted faithfully to 5th Edition rules. It also includes a fully colored battle map within the PDF for the DM's reference¸ along with a matching full sized (18 x 24 inch) printable battle map¸ which has been sized to scale. The adventure is designed for a group of 3-5 player characters around levels 6-8¸ who happen to camp near the base of an unassuming oak tree. Unknowingly to the player characters¸ the tree is secretly a carnivorous hangman tree¸ which a dryad has bonded with (she has turned evil as a result and can command the tree). While the players are setting up camp¸ a charming satyr wanders up to them¸ bringing a freshly killed deer to feed to the tree in an attempt to seduce the cruel and aloof dryad that is bound to it. This mini-adventure is designed to fit in any campaign world. This adventure is included within my Stand Alone Adventure Bundle ¸ as well as my Everything Andrew James Woodyard Bundle (where it is sold at a discounted price considering the bundle of PDFs in each bundle).
