EN5ider's got a gang you can definitely use in your campaigns! 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.

- 540. Adventure: Riders of Dywrion. West of Caer Balloch is a region of rolling hills known as the Dywrion. From those lands come the Riders of Dywrion, a famous adventuring society that rose to meteoric fame a few decades before and now has more than two dozen active members. The Bold Blade Inn, run by Jalek the Bold, acts as their de facto headquarters and their figures of greatest renown—a quartet of semi-retired founders—can usually be found there. Yet there is treachery afoot in this hallowed hall! A murderer is on the loose, the adventurers are drawn into the investigation, and the body count rises as they close in on the killer. Diabolically designed by Marc Kenobi for 4–5 PCs of 9th level, featuring cartography by Umut Comak, cover illustration by Lady Luck Digital, and interior art by Dom Critelli and Dean Spencer.
