Jungle Heat: A 5th Level Adventure for 5th Edition
The famed gnomish explorer, Dr. Elias Kracket, and his trusty sidekick, Short Crank, recently discovered a map that supposedly led to a long lost island far out at sea. Eager to chart this unclaimed land, they chartered a boat and set sail for the distant horizon. As they neared their destination, a sudden storm surrounded them, battering their ship and forcing it aground. With no way off the island, and a mysterious jungle before them, they set out to do what they do best... explore! Eventually, they setup a camp near a river and slowly began to fortify it against the deadly local flora and fauna. The jungle here was full of everything from giant snakes to long lost dinosaurs! One night, when the sun had set and the moon was dark, a group of men approached the camp. Their skin was pale as snow and they painted their faces in terrifying visages. They attacked the camp and dragged off some of the ship's crew who now served as Kracket's personal guard. The kidnapped men's screams could be heard until dawn. Now, Dr. Kracket and his team are counting the hours until nightfall, when the painted men will return. Unless they receive reinforcements, their fate might be sealed.
