Description

Dare to sit upon a throne that should never be claimed.

Deep within a forgotten desert, a ruined throne room appears without warning before vanishing again beneath the sands. Legends tell of a throne carved from bone, a cursed monarch bound to an endless cycle, and a mysterious seer who always arrives before the inevitable.

Shifting Throne of the Bone King is a ready-to-run adventure designed to be completed in a single session while fitting easily into an ongoing campaign. As the party explores the ancient ruin, they’ll confront deadly guardians, uncover the truth behind the Bone King’s curse, and face a final choice that could end the cycle or condemn another soul to take the throne.

As the first release in the One Map Mayhem series, this adventure showcases what the line is all about: concise, high-impact encounters built around a single memorable map, each featuring unique challenges, meaningful choices, and consequences that can extend far beyond the final battle.

Created for Dungeons & Dragons 5.5E (2024). Recommended for 5th-level characters.
