Ptolus: Return of the Ebon Hand

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. [Also part of the Ptolus: City of Adventure book.]
