Tales and Tomes Issue #5 – The Devil’s Doorstep

Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition Magazine by Tales and Tomes

The Devil’s Doorstep

A 5e Social One Shot for Levels 5 – 8

The Hearthstone Rest is the finest inn on the north road. The fire never dies. The food is genuinely excellent. The prices are suspiciously fair, and the innkeeper is the best host your players will ever meet. He remembers their names. He tops off their drinks before the glass is empty. He asks only that they sign the guest book, helps him remember.

The guest book is a contract.

Will your players unravel an infernal hospitality scheme before the contract ink dries, or work off a small misunderstanding with the management for the rest of their lives?

From the Guest Book

Three infernal magic items: a bell that compels truth, a ledger that reads dreams, and ink that breaks contracts. Plus a d20 table of Guests Who Came Before, ready made NPCs each carrying a debt, a grudge, or a secret

Learned & Earned

Four general feats (the Investigator, the Diplomat, the Traveler, the Survivor) and five new spells flavored to the issue’s themes

Arcane Alley

A bonus location supplement: a wandering market that appears without warning in the heart of civilization. Two shops with new magic items and more.
