A free d20 adventure - The Song of Roland

[elazair]

Long story short: I wrote this about a year ago for a small PDF publisher, but they've failed to publish it since then and I asked for the rights back. Now I just want to get it out there on the net for all to enjoy. It's a free pdf of a d20 D&D adventure based on the French poem The Song of Roland.

Here's the link: http://www.rapidsharing.com/62a9450fea57d461267b60819356d521

Please note: The adventure was originally written as a supplement for Green Ronin's Medieval Player's Manual. However, it's perfectly playable without that book; just change a few classes (natural magician becomes sorceror, for example) and replace 'charisms' with regular feats.

Also, I must admit that, for a d20 adventure, it's very narrative-driven and slightly railroady. This is intentional; I wanted the plot to follow the poem very closely.

Anyway, if you like Charlemagne, paladins, desperate last stands and smiting heathens in the name of a vengeful God... then this is the adventure for you. Enjoy.

P.S. I hope this is OK, posting the adventure here. I'm new to your forum, so if there's some rule against this, or I've posted in the wrong forum, please let me know and I'll take it down.

Welcome on the boards, and thanks for sharing!

Since I have Medieval Player's Manual, I was interested in this adventure. If I can comment, I would have added a map of the location where much of the battles take place, with some special terrain features (such as a canyon where opponents are ambushed, that sort of things).
