The Egg of Estyr (Holiday Heist One-Shot)

Can you believe we're already 4 months into the year!? I certainly can't! Well, thanks to all of your support, the start of April marks the release of a session a week for the entire month!

We're starting this month off hot with a Holiday Themed Heist. From Jmanc, the creator of The Night Before Wintermas comes another level 5 Neutral/Evil One-Shot. Set in the same town as the original. Your players will once again meet with Quentin Happyjoy who is getting into the confectionery business. Apparently, there's a lot of money in fat kids, especially when your toffee is 80% nicotine. He wants your players to cripple his competitors, House Estyr, makers of the world-famous "chocolate ovoids", by staging a heist on their heavily secured and fortified bank.

Will your players be able to come together to sneak or smash their way through the banks' defenses and come out with The Egg of Estyr?

This One-Shot has quite a lot to it. Your players will have multiple options when it comes to how they would like to tackle this heist which each leads to a very different experience. Theirs a full town to explore as well, with multiple unique vendors and magic items. I'm genuinely impressed with all there is to do!

I've also improved the design of the puzzle and included a section for handouts to make this session that much more immersive! I hope your players have as wild a time as mine did!
