The Weir Count

Once a year Marrowdown lays out everything the Weir has caught, and half the valley comes to look for something they lost.

This year the catch includes a church door. Complete, with its hinges, from no church anyone in Marrowdown recognises.

⛪ A TRAVELLER ON THE QUAY KNOWS EXACTLY WHICH ONE

The chapel is eleven miles down the valley.

The door was bought at auction an hour ago by a man who wants it for a pie counter.

He has the receipt.

🪵 THE ACTUAL ADVENTURE

Carrying a seven-foot door eleven miles, in bad spring weather.

Two encounters sit on the road and neither one has to happen. The door is not optional.

🎲 A 45-page one-shot adventure for D&D 5e — 3 hours, 4 players, level 2.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📦 WHAT YOU GET — 44 pages, nothing left for you to invent

▪ 5 scenes, every one written out in full: read-aloud text, what happens if they fail, what to do if they skip it

▪ 2 battle maps in three versions each — DM, player, and a copy with no grid. 70 px per 5-foot square, so it drops straight into Roll20 or Foundry already aligned

▪ 4 ready-to-play 2nd-level characters, finished — ability scores, armour class, hit points, attacks, spells and gear. Hand them out and roll

▪ Every character in it, player and NPC alike, has a drawn portrait

▪ A plain-English glossary of the basic rules words — DC, saving throws, advantage

▪ A section for your first time running a game

▪ A summary up front listing every scene with its page and how hard each fight is

▪ 10 secrets, tables and handouts, and written help for when the party goes sideways

🗓️ PART OF THE LOWMERE YEAR

Sixteen adventures in one valley, spring to winter, collected in one campaign book with a finale that is not sold on its own.

This adventure stands completely alone — it needs nothing from any other — but a table that plays four of them starts seeing the year take shape.

Wren Sedge is in this one, and in three more of them.

✨ THIS IS FOR YOU IF

▪ You want a comedy evening where the obstacle is an object, not a villain

▪ Your table can talk its way out of a fight and would rather

▪ You want a dnd one shot that fits in an evening and finishes

▪ You are new to running games and want the read-aloud text already written

▪ You run on Roll20 or Foundry and want maps that import at the right scale

▪ You want to hand out finished characters instead of spending session one building them
