December Release: Black Rat Hall - Thieves Guild

Added 2022-12-27 20:22:22 +0000 UTC

Hi All!

Man what a month this has been... work, holiday and snow storms. I didn't even get to visit the family over the holidays because of the winter storms here.... but that meant I was able to spend more time on this release.

I was hoping to have this out before Christmas, but it was just too big a project to complete. I put quite a lot of thought and detail into this release and I really hope it shows. The entire scene is not quite done, as I am still planning on making buildings/streets around Black Rat Hall so that it feels more like a city and not just a clump of buildings. Also it's better for sneaking in and getaways :)

Black Rat Hall is the guildhall for a group of thieves named the Black Rats. It comprises a block of buildings which they've covertly connected and reinforced. In their dark alley, walkways line the building walls and rope bridges criss-cross between them. Inside can be found thieves, locksmiths, pick makers and poison distillers - as well as traps designed to delay and kill. Only those in the know can find safe passage through the winding halls and secret doors to the treasures hidden within. It has 5 floors (cellars through rooftops), a rotating fireplace, a variety of traps, alarms, and secret passages! This is perfect for a stealth mission or if a player wishes to join a thieves guild.

For Foundry users, the scene includes a bunch of traps, a rotating fireplace door, descriptions for 29 (!?) rooms and new sounds and images (pictures) in the the sounds and images folders of the module. Feel free to use them as you like! They are meant to add atmosphere to your games.

Hope you guys like this release. I hope to get back onto a 2 release schedule next month and release a free module to attract new users.

As always, ideas, comments and concerns are appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob from RuinWorks
