🕯️ Descend Into the Enigmatic Underworld
Nerazir’s Citadel: Descent - a dark fantasy megadungeon campaign module for D&D 5e (Levels 1–10), brought to life with original artwork by talented artists. Delve into a vast dwarven settlement, expertly carved into the heart of a mountain, where ancient halls, hidden passages, and a dynamic world of danger and intrigue await.
What awaits within the citadel:
- 🎮 Metroidvania-inspired gameplay:
Delve into over 20 detailed maps as you explore the vast depths of Tarkus. Unlock new areas, overcome environmental hazards like raging rivers, poisonous mists, and molten lava, and grow stronger with every descent. Each level offers secrets and shortcuts that reward clever exploration and strategic backtracking.
- 🏰 Build & upgrade your party base:
Found your own headquarters within the mountain and unlock all 8 unique upgrade paths. Establish and upgrade your own headquarters, where you can purchase new equipment and gain valuable resources.
- ⚔️ Dynamic faction wars & tactical encounters:
Shape the fate of Tarkus as you navigate the ambitions and rivalries of its powerful factions, each vividly brought to life: from enigmatic armoured dwarven leaders and cunning spider matriarchs to mysterious mycelian sages. With over 30 new creature stat blocks, including formidable boss monsters, every encounter challenges you to adapt as monsters coordinate in unexpected ways.
- 🧭 Player-driven hooks & replayability:
Your choices matter. Every party’s journey through Tarkus will be different, as cooperation or conflict with any of the 9 distinct factions leads to unique storylines and endings. With branching quests, shifting alliances, and multiple outcomes shaped by your interactions with these rival powers, no two adventures will ever be the same.
- ✨ Upgradeable Magic Items Await
Throughout your journey in Tarkus, player characters will discover and claim over 12 unique magic items: each with its own story, powers, and potential. These treasures aren’t just static rewards: as your campaign unfolds, you’ll have the chance to upgrade and evolve each item, unlocking new abilities and forging legendary artefacts that grow alongside your heroes.
