Ptolus: Return of the Ebon Hand

Proofreader

Of all the chaos cults, the Ebon Hand is one of the most insidious, because it proves the most resilient. Enemies of the cult of the Ebon Hand liken them to cockroaches, with the cultists scattered when found, always to return later. Now, despite setbacks, the Ebon Hand has founded a new temple and once again is doing its horrible work…

Return of the Ebon Hand is an adventure set in Ptolus, the city by the Spire. It’s suitable for 5e characters of roughly 6th level, or Cypher System characters of roughly third tier, and can be easily adjusted upward or downward in difficulty.

Ptolus: The Runeblood Blessing

Proofreader

A mysterious ritual offers magical ability to all who want it. . .

For the low, low price of one gold—in fact, today only, just a single silver shield!—you too can cast magic. As much as you like, as often as you like. It’s easy! And the blood-red rune on your face? It’s a symbol of the power you’ve gained. A symbol that’s becoming more and more popular among nobles, elites, adventurers, and the everyday folk of Ptolus.

The Runeblood Blessing is a hefty standalone adventure set in Ptolus, the city by the Spire. It’s suitable for 5e characters of roughly 6th level, or Cypher System characters of roughly third tier, and can be easily adjusted upward or downward in difficulty.
