Advent's Amazing Advice

Dragon of Icespire Peak (Part 4a Axeholm)

Added 2024-11-03 11:15:43 +0000 UTC

Axeholm is a dwarven fortress carved into the base of a mountain. It was abandoned and sealed up long ago after being haunted by a banshee. Ghouls and other creatures now prowl Axeholm, while the banshee continues to haunt the fortress's upper halls. It'll be up to your players to clear this fortress and make it a safe haven for the town of Phandalin; should the dragon threat become too hard to bear!

This is the complete collection of both the upper and lower halls! The Lower Halls will have your players face an onslaught of Ghouls if they try to go through the front gates as well as the ghoulified dwarf castellan who remained behind trying to protect those that fled! While the Upper Halls will have your players facing a hidden giant spider, even more ghouls, and the dreaded Banshee. If your players are perceptive enough they may even find powerful artifacts that may help them in the trials to come!
