Wrath of the Jötunn

Into the Wintery Gale: Wrath of the Jötunn, the 200-page mega adventure I authored for AAW Games / Adventureaweek.com, has been released for purchase. The Pathfinder RPG compatible PDF is available for purchase now, and the print version is pending press proofing (so hopefully available in a couple weeks). This mega adventure is designed for 5-6 PCs levels 9-10 with intent to advance them to roughly 15th level.

The arrival of the celestial event known as the Ohjaslange heralds the return of the dreaded Jötunn—skeletal ice giants—and with them a curse of endless winter.

The adventurers have unwittingly stepped into the role of saviors to the Vikmordere people as the curse descends around Serpent Lake. Summoned by an ancient goddess, the adventurers join forces with the tribes of the Vikmordere to uncover lost artifacts necessary to triumph in this classic battle of good versus evil.

A war must be waged against the mighty Jötunn as they march down from their great stronghold on the towering peak of Ighdenholm. If the adventurers are not up to the challenge, then winter may forever reign in the valley.
