The Bloody Burrows

An adventure location for Mausritter.

By day the burrows look like an idyllic location, nestled in the roots of an old willow tree on the bank of a gently burbling stream. However, apart from some insects who like the solitude, nobody calls the burrows home.

Nobody living, at least.

By night three ethereal voles — known locally as the Midnight Washervoles — can be seen washing laundry. Adults living nearby avoid the burrows but, keen to see the mysterious voles, local children will sneak out and try to catch a glimpse. However, only the sharp eyed and swift legged see them and return to tell the tale.

Not a lot is known for certain about the Washervoles but they do appear to be unfriendly, quick-witted, and washing burial shrouds.

This adventure site comes with:

• A primary antagonist, the Washervoles, and a magic item
• Two hooks, each with two NPCs and two items
• A map of the burrows
• Three random encounter creatures
• Playing card-sized creature cards for easy access to the stats during play

The adventure itself comes in screen and print forms. The screen PDF has an ink-heavy cover and spreads, the print PDF has an alternative cover and is arranged to be printed double-sided onto A4 and folded into an A5 booklet.  The item cards should be printed onto card stock and cut out. The creature cards are available in two formats: either printed double sided if your printer has good alignment, or printed then cut/folded/glued to make double-sided cards.

If these PDFs don't work for you, please get in touch.
