***THE CITADEL OF THUNDER: ARDUIN DUNGEON #3 description

The Thousand Thunder Falls is not only a geologic wonder but also a doorway to mysterious deep depths. Behind their innocently shimmering curtain lies a cryptic evil. Foul and forgotten, it waits without end growing in the darkness of its den.

The Citadel of Thunder is the third in a series of adventure modules based on the best selling Arduin Trilogy. The suggested level of play is 3-6 characters of 4th thru 7th level. It contains four dungeon levels complete with maps and area descriptions, eight pocket sized magic artifact cards, and eight illustrated monster cards with statistics.

***DEATH HEART: ARDUIN DUNGEON #4 description

What turns a verdant green garden into lands black as death? Where once pristine lakes and silver spire towers sparkled in bright sunlight, now lies pitch and rubble, swallowed by the inky depths of a bleak waters. Deep, heaving sighs are heard throughout the trees as the tainted land murmurs a haunting pulse. Four entrances lead down into a hidden maze below the ruins. Above each portal, an enigmatic quote bellows a silent challenge to the world; its staunch call remains unanswered. Treasures and mysteries lie bound and locked within its dark realms. Dare you seek the mysteries of Death Heart?

Death Heart is the fourth in a series of adventure modules based on the best selling Arduin Trilogy. Difficulty level is mutable for any character level or number of players. It contains overland maps with area descriptions and encounter charts, three dungeon levels with maps and room descriptions, eight pocket sized magic artifact cards and eight illustrated monster cards with statistics.
