D&D General Looking for Recommendations for Next Adventure

[not-so-newguy]

I'm looking for an adventure to offer the players with the following criteria: I'm hoping the hive mind can provide.​

• Low level (1-3)
• Takes place in a desert environment.
• Can take place in the wilderness, a large city, or small village. (A civilization exists along a river in this region)
• Does NOT include undead. Edit: A few is ok (I plan to offer Falkrest Abbey, which has a bunch of undead.)
• Does NOT include Cthulhu-esque type tentacle creatures. (We're almost done with People of the Pit. No. More. Tentacles.)
• Any edition of D&D, clone system, or neutral system.

I'm not sure if that's enough info. If you have questions, please let me know.
Thanlks!

There's Marauders of the Dune Sea from 4e, though you might have to tweak it down a bit to suit your level range; it has town, wilderness, and dungeon-y elements in it. I don't recall there being any undead or tentacles in it but it's ten years since I ran it or even looked at it so my memory might not be perfect.

Tomb of the Serpent Kings by Skerples. Free in PDF or less than $4 for POD. It does have a few undead, but they're easily swapped out for other baddies. I still love the

Huh, I picked this up years ago and forgot about it. I'll be giving it a reread.

I feel the desert without undead is a tough one. Unfortunately I don't really run published adventures so I can't offer much help - but I wish you luck!

PS - have ChatGPT write one for you!

Cat and Mouse (5e) from Kobold Press is a good little adventure that hits a lot of these notes. Probably only enough adventure to get to 2nd level. Based in desert coastal city of Per-Bastet, but could be moved to most desert villages - the coastal orientation doesn't really factor into the adventure. No undead at all iirc, definitely no Cthulu tentacle monsters.

A few undead is fine. I just don't want that monster type to be a major theme in the adventure.
Tentacles are a hard 'no' on the other hand
