The Riddle of Peader O'Heyne | New 15th-Level Side Trek for Fifth Edition
🕑 Added 2020-03-17 15:00:21 +0000 UTCNote: The download links are below at the bottom of the page.
Leprechauns are small fey creatures who delight in pranks, mischief, and sometimes even the torture of unsuspecting humanoids whom they come into contact with. Some stories tell tales of capturing leprechauns, forcing the creatures to grant them three wishes. Other stories are more cautionary: a captured leprechaun fights like a trapped animal, more dangerous and hateful than even the most powerful chromatic dragon.
Where to Add This Encounter
This side trek is designed for three to seven 11th-16th-level characters and is optimized for five characters with an average party level (APL) of 15.
The leprechaun's lair can be placed in any wild forest, enchanted glade, or any location in the world that would likely have a high presence of fey creatures. Typically, the actual lair is far from humanoid settlements with the exception being one or two hamlets within five miles.
The adventure assumes that the characters must track and find the leprechaun for some reason, then attempt to catch it.
