Nergal's Followers' Crypt


Nergal's Followers' Crypt is a free, micro-sized low-level Barrowmoor crypt for use with Barrowmaze or as a small set-piece in your campaign or hexcrawl. Stats are given for use with the DCC RPG, but can be easily adapted to your system of choice.

You can download a one-page PDF with all the stats here:

These stats are recommended for a party of 4 to 6 first level DCC characters or a mix of level ones and zeroes. 

For 5+ characters, consider adding an additional member to all group encounters (cooks, thieves, gelmen). Roll on the encounter table (2 in 6) for all rooms without enemies or when noisy (use every encounter only once, except gelmen; I didn't care for the vampires, so you have to stat them yourself if you wanna use them). Don't forget to roll for room dissolution if they stay in one place for too long.

Remember also that some of the encounters, like the gregarious ochre jelly or the out-of-luck thieves don't have to result in combat if the players act clever.

OVO, GELMEN OVERLORD
