YORGEN REEF
Foreword: This adventure was homebrewed for my personal campaign setting. I am writing
this as a favor for those who have seen the map of Immsdamme and wished for a module. For
use in the forgotten realms, simply set it somewhere along the sword coast, and change the
name. For use in your homebrew setting, just adapt it to your liking.
Disclaimer: While Lovecraft’s work is focused on horror and racism, this adventure is really just
that. An adventure with some fishy themes of madness mixed in. You are welcome to adjust it to
be more
Introduction: About ten years ago, an epidemic swept over the small fishing village of
Immsdamme, which lies two days north of Belinsanchre. Before then, the village was prosperous
and wealthy, though now even travelers who usually take the Myvanse road along the coast
prefer to travel inland to avoid the misty town. There is just something about the village’s
constant dreary weather and unfriendly inhabitants that irks even the hardiest of travelers. Do
you have the gumption to find out what shadows lie over Immsdamme?
