Back during the 30 day challenge I mentioned that my favorite undead was a dracolich and it seems that WotC either heard me or it is just a coincidence, because today they released “Vault of the Dracolich” over at the various onebookshelf sites.
From Drivethrurpg
Deep in the forest of Cormanthor lies the hoard of the dracolich Dretchroyaster, the prize of which is a diamond staff rumored to unlock the secrets of an ancient elven kingdom. The sage Imani is seeking dozens of adventurers to launch an all-out assault on the undead dragon’s lair. The dracolich is a powerful foe – too great for even several parties to conquer – so it’s going to take all of the heroes’ courage, cunning, and speed to survive the dracolich’s deadly vault.
“Vault of the Dracolich” is a Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game adventure designed for the June 2013 D&D Game Day. The challenge draws inspiration from the interactive format used at some gaming conventions.
As far as I know this is the first commercially released 5e product (there is a Murder in Bladur’s Gate but that is different) and would seem to be aimed at the folks with the Next playtest kits.
I will say the fact that it is now labelled as fifth edition (5e) saddens me a little as I liked the unnumbered “next”.
Over a drivethru, pick it up: Vault of the Dracolich.
