LEVEL 6 One-Shot
UP TO A PARTY OF 5 CHARACTERS.
3-6 hours of session time.
Adventure background
The City of a Hundred Ships is an one shot adventure for 6th level characters in the 5th Edition set on a floating city. The characters can explore the city and choose a side in a disagreement between two ideologies.
The adventure begins with the party aboard a great elven warship, The Regolith, heading for a floating city named Maradusc, also known as The City of a Hundred Ships.
Adventure Hooks
If you have previously run Lady Trevant’s Bones, this adventure serves as a sequel. The party will be asked by Kalen Thriz to accompany her to Maradusc where they will be given a reward for their help. You can run this as a one shot or slot it into a campaign by having Kalen hire them to present the bones to the Umbra Ministry (elves of the Midnight Banner are forbidden to touch the bones because of their sacred status).
Alternatively, if the party are already at sea, they can come across the city by accident
and be picked up by The Regolith as it too arrives back in the city.
