Broken Heart of the Castle
A downloadable ttrpg adventure
Broken Heart of the Castle is a system-neutral gothic fantasy adventure steeped in mystery, romance, and tragedy. Players can expect to meet fascinating humanoid and bestial NPCs and be presented with opportunities for creative problem-solving.
For centuries, the Walking Castle has terrorized the villages of the Lowlands with the erratic energy of a brokenhearted teen. Trudging through the countryside on four colossal legs of solid stone, the castle carves a wandering path of destruction, aimlessly plowing forests, fields, and homes. The locals have long accepted that crushed taverns and ravaged farms are a part of life in the Lowlands. Three weeks ago, however, the Walking Castle for the first time turned toward a densely settled area—the capital of Bells Fall, igniting the ire of city leaders and terror in residents. You have five days to mount and infiltrate the Walking Castle, unravel its mysteries, and stop the castle before it destroys Bells Falls.
Broken Heart of the Castle can be played at any table with any system you choose. For that reason, there are a few things you as the Game Manager (GM) will need to prep in order to run this adventure.
We’ve provided form-fillable blank workspaces throughout the adventure where you can take notes, input stats, and build encounters. For each threat we have included information that will help you run it by rating it easy, moderate, difficult, or deadly.

A beautifully designed "dungeon" that fits into one session with a queer romance at its heart. I loved reading and running it. Sensitive but fun, my players and I especially loved the curse that effects that characters, that also brings forth some great roleplay moments.
