D&D 5E Fire in the Laskian Mountains

As it turns out, the bandit Borok the Burning is very attached to his head.

Today's EN5ider is on fire! Once more an ancient draconic threat looms over Elissar, though this time it hails from the chilly south and for now the winged serpent's secretive influence is limited to its emissary: the mysterious fiery bandit known as Borok the Burning. Under his leadership the disparate raiders of the Laskian Mountains have banded together into the formidable Pyre, raising settlements across the tundra with abandon. Tonie Ankrifkadóttir (the karnir of the capital of Icegarten) has posted a bounty of 600 gold for whoever can take the bandit leader's head—yet the many that have tried have all died in the attempt. This adventure for 4–6 PCs of 6th level was devotedly designed by RK Robison, illustrated by Yeysson Bellaisa, and features the cartography of Kate Moody and Russ Morrissey.

Lately on EN5ider:
  • 545. Borok the Burning's Bounty. Once more an ancient draconic threat looms over Elissar, though this time it hails from the chilly south and for now the winged serpent's secretive influence is limited to its emissary: the mysterious fiery bandit known as Borok the Burning. Under his leadership the disparate raiders of the Laskian Mountains have banded together into the formidable Pyre, raising settlements across the tundra with abandon. Tonie Ankrifkadóttir (the karnir of the capital of Icegarten) has posted a bounty of 600 gold for whoever can take the bandit leader's head—yet the many that have tried have all died in the attempt. This adventure for 4–6 PCs of 6th level was devotedly designed by RK Robison, illustrated by Yeysson Bellaisa, and features the cartography of Kate Moody and Russ Morrissey.
  • 544. Villain Spotlight: Rotting Druid. Decay is not just a part of nature, it can be a powerful system of belief and means to attain power. A potent example of that is decomposing Demois, feared far and wide as the Rotting Druid (CR 14). Completely slaying this man-turned-mass of worms is practically impossible, his consciousness spread out into thousands of wriggling creatures and intelligent rotting fragment (CR 12) copies created to serve his will! Disgustingly designed by Michael McCarthy, illustrated by Júlio Rocha.
  • 543. Monstrous Menagerie: Dragonettes. Breathe more life into your bestiary with the anthill dragonette (CR 3), chimney dragonette (CR 1), fey angler dragonette (CR 2), sewer dragonette (CR 1), squirrel dragonette (CR 2), and tidepool dragonette (CR 2)! Also includes the Dragonette Whisperer feat for spellcasters keen on a unique winged companion. Draconically designed by Andrew Engelbrite, illustrated by Indi Martin.
  • 542. Villain Spotlight: Night Lark. History is filled with tales warning not to reject the gods and none are so devastating as the ruinous fate of the Night Lark. Once a musician of such great talent that the deities themselves were in envy, when they spurned the divine a terrible curse was put upon them. All that they cared for perished and fell to ruin until their beloved abandoned them, transforming the entertainer into a supernatural force for woe and dismay. Dauntingly designed by Marc Kenobi, illustrated by Yeysson Bellaiza.
  • 541. Intriguing Organizations: Scavenged Kin. It’s said that the worst villains make for horrible bosses, and yet every one of them seems to have an army of loyal goons to do their bidding. It doesn’t matter how cruel and unusual their working conditions are, these bumbling henchmen continuously throw themselves into battle to protect an employer who really couldn’t care less about them. The question on every adventurer’s mind is: why? Where does this endless supply of madcap morons even come from? While some of the higher-ranked thugs might have joined the forces of evil on their own, most have actually been trained for this role since childhood. They are the stock and trade of the Scavenged Kin. Deceptively designed by Elizabeth Orchard, illustrated by Yeysson Bellaiza.
