The Cycle of Cerberus - A New Free 50 page 5e Adventure taking a party from Level 5 to Level 8!

DOWNLOAD HERE  

UPDATE: The Cycle of Cerberus is now available as a free Foundry VTT Module! Thanks to the  fantastic work of Atropos and the rest of the CoC team, the entire adventure is available for all Foundry VTT license holders to import straight into the app.

You can install the module through the Foundry VTT Application under the 'Add-on Modules' Tab. Once you install the module and activate it within one of your worlds, you will be displayed a prompt to import all of the module content (if you wish) which will automatically import all the adventure content and create a folder structure within your game world.

Please note you will need to make sure you updated to version 0.6.5 of Foundry VTT or higher to install The Cycle of Cerberus.

I am very happy to announce The Cycle of Cerberus

(For illustrative purposes, not a physical product)

This labor of love is the achievement of over 25 individuals working together to bring you an adventure of Herculean proportions. The funny thing is that it started as a basic idea from Kevin (Kev's Lounge) but it eventually got bigger and bigger.

A key aspect of this collaboration was the story (Adventure PDF), which was the guideline for all the creators (maps, music, papercraft, items and paperminis). The Writing team involved seven writers and it was orchestrated by Alex (TavernTales). (Higher tier patrons will know Alex  from our monthly adventure releases)

This way, Kevin and Alex were team Leaders, but we also had a general project management role for this collaboration. This key role was performed by Diego (Paper Mage).

Well, we’re really proud of what we achieved, and here's what you'll get:

Adventure PDF

The Cycle of Cerberus is an adventure designed to take a group of 4 to 5 characters from 5th to 8th level. Inspired by the 12 Labors of Hercules in Greek mythology, this adaptation incorporates the classic quests, monsters, and motif of ancient myth while injecting our interpretation of the personality and flavour of the world's greatest roleplaying game. This story was written by TavernTales, Thai Williams, DM Tuz, Kraven's Keep, Simon Menanteau-Ledouble, Mike Myler, and C. A. Berlitz. It also includes a number of dynamic and evocative monster stat blocks by Tim Gonzalez that are sure to terrorize your players. 

Maps

Each labor is a different challenge and there’s a map for each one, available as easy to print files, or a complete picture for your virtual table tops! These beautiful maps show off the distinct styles from TavernTales, Tom Cartos, Chibbin Grove, g0dxmode, MapGuffin, Galaxy Compass (Formerly Mutenn), Mark Drummond J and Venatus Maps.

Magic Items

An adventure wouldn’t be complete without some thematic magic items for the party to keep as souvenirs (and of course to use throughout the adventure). All of these unique items were masterly crafted and illustrated by The Tavern of Trinkets

Papercraft

If the stunning maps aren’t enough, you can bring some extra dimension to the table with the unique papercraft terrain and props designed by PMal.

Original Music

We wanted to take the immersion to the next level for this collaboration, and Adventure Music achieved just that by composing five original tracks for you to use throughout the adventure.

Characters and beasts

To accompany the characters and creatures your heroes will be meeting, there is a complete arsenal of minis for you to use, so that everyone can put a face to a name. All of the artwork for these original creatures are by Kev's Lounge, Kraven's Keep, Brave Adventures, Paper Mage, Okumarts, Printable Heroes, Paper Forge, Decapitated Markers, Chibbin Grove and Trash Mob minis. The minis come in both Printable and VTT format so you can use them at home or online!

We hope you enjoy our adventure, it has been a fantastic project to work on and we are all very happy to finally be able to share it with you. You can download all of the files using the link at the top of this post. 

As a thank you for their support, this adventure has been released early for Patrons, but will be publicly available next week.

Hi Jarren, it is still working fine for me. Try again and make sure you don't have any ad or pop up blockers enabled. MyAirBridge (my cloud hosting platform) has a one time 'Terms and Conditions' panel that appears the first time you access it.

It looks like the download link is broken!

Hi Jenny, yes it is! Once the playtest is finished we will be releasing the entire adventure as a free Foundry Module.

Tom Cartos

This adventure just launched a playtest on the Foundry patreon. Is the adventure going to be coming here when it is completed?

Jenny Underwood

Comcast just upgraded my download speed to 1gbps which is great, because this is a 4GB download :)

Kurt Stoffer

Wow, this totally caught me by surprise! Looking fantastic.

Ruunis

Woo Hoo!!! This looks great and is sure to add to my Theros campaign quite nicely. So happy to be your Patron!

Hi Andrew, I've just shortened the file names for those maps. Can you try them again and see if it works?

Tom Cartos

Hi Tom, many thanks for this adventure. Unfortunately, in Labour 9 some of the Mapguffin map files could not be downloaded because the file names were too large (I have a PC with Windows 10). Just wondered if anybody else was having this problem. Best wishes, Andrew
