Sand Queens Lair

Tonight we wrap up one of the several encounter maps I have planned for this Zine with the Sand Queens Lair. Tonight is the, well, “last map” of the adventure this week. This gives us quite a few maps for a one-shot but that’s for a very good reason, we will see this in the Zine for this adventure.

So without any further waiting, let’s sit back, grab a hot coffee and roll into tonight’s content.


Sand Queens Lair

The sand underfoot shifted as they walked through a mixture of tunnels dug through sandstone walls and ancient carved hallways. The latter is what they had just been exploring before they entered what could only be described as a cavern. The light flittered through holes in the roof that shifted as the sand above them gradually fell through these holes.

This created pockets of darkness and steep walls of sand against the rocky walls that reached dozens of feet to the cavern roof. The sand had been pushed against the wall, or flattened to the wall with a rough solid path in the middle of a few halls. The signs of the Ant-like humanoids were everywhere and as they moved deeper into the cavern it was revealed why.

In a pillar of light sat a huge monstrosity that watched them with eagre eyes. A giant antoid with a swollen egg sack that took up most of the back of this cavern. The queen regarded them with almost a regal presence, watching them with an intelligence that was not yet seen amongst all of the antoids that they had seen thus far.

That’s it for tonight. I hope you enjoyed the secondary map tonight. Don’t forget to come back tomorrow and, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
