All in all a group is supposed to be in the Dungeon for, maybe, 2 or 3 hours in game if they don't leave to take a long rest. My group just ran through White Plume Mountain with only having trouble in two rooms. Side effects include: possible rash, intense weeping, may ruin friendships. Those are just two of the thirty-something encounters of this dungeon. Then, there is another trap with a chance of being magically stripped of all of your possessions, and then teleported out of the dungeon entirely. into a chamber where their only real options are to starve or die of thirst, or run into another room to be assuredly chopped to bits. There's false entrances that may even be trapped that prevent the party from even entering! Inside, there's a seemingly innocent trap that levitates a player. If your players have any trouble with handling traps or figuring out puzzles, it's all but guaranteed to be deadly. Run this if you promised your players that you would kill some of them. The difficulty evens out for this one though, as it offers some separation between modules, which means a change to rest and recharge - something not readily offered in Dead in Thay Deadly rating: Not so much, Average.
All of the Giants are dangerous in their own way, so if the players do not adapt their tactics and evaluate their enemies, then they could find themselves in trouble against one type or another. It is three different modules, that will send the players on a tour of the different types of Giants. Pay attention to the risk of character death in this place, because if certain conditions are not met, any resurrected character will find their souls trapped forever! Deadly rating: DeadlyĪgainst the Giants is another one that really is multiple adventures.
Resource Management will be the silent killer in this one. This one is a collection of very creative "rooms" that all rolled up into a marathon of encounters that will drain your players of their spells and powers per day.
TALES FROM THE YAWNING PORTAL ROLL20 SERIES
So if your players are not used to handling that, it will be difficult! Deadly rating: kinda deadly.ĭead in Thay is really a series of adventures in a super dungeon, and expect this one to compete with Against The Giants for the longest. They are definitely creative, and usually do not take a linear approach like standard traps. If the party keeps a level head, the incredibly creative puzzles and environment encounters are not too overwhelming. White Plume Mountain mellows out the challenge a bit, taking an expected challenge for its level range. Even if the players survive the adventure, there is a chance that the dungeon can trap them in, and force them to be new slaves for Tamoachan! Deadly rating: Deadly. The treasure inside is a little sparse, and may not be worth the danger inside. The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan is the next adventure in character level, but definitely takes a climb up in difficulty.
TALES FROM THE YAWNING PORTAL ROLL20 HOW TO
These are perfect for teaching new players or those with difficulty with traps on how to handle themselves properly in dungeon crawling. The Forge is perfect as an immediate run right after The Sunless Citadel. Citadel is a great one off specifically for 1st level characters. The Sunless Citadel and The Forge of Fury are the lowest level, and (relatively) easiest adventures of the book. Sure, Tome of Horrors are only for DMs looking to eliminate player characters, but the others run differently, and each are challenging in their own way. The better description is A collection of exciting and challenging adventures that gives DMs resources for one off adventures for all player levels. The promotional description may be a little generalized though. You're looking at a source for seven adventures, all varying in difficulty and length.
Tales from the Yawning Portal is an excellent book a collection of some of the great adventures in the history of Dungeons and Dragons. Short Answer: You can consider the adventures mostly ordered in terms of difficulty as well as character level, but not all of them are "the deadliest in history".
