The Sibyl of the Ascent

This 2-page dungeon was created for the Jennell Jaquays Memorial Game Jam in honor of Jennell Jaquays. It is one of many contributions to the megadungeon Return to Perinthos.

Please back the upcoming Crowdfundr to print the megadungeon to support Jennell's family. After the campaign, profits from future sales of the book will be donated to Trans Lifeline. If you want to contribute to her family now, you can visit their GoFundMe.

A respite of outside light and fresh air called the Ascent is rumored to exist in the depths of the megadungeon of Perinthos, created for the prophetic sibyl who dwells within. The last-known sibyl became a tyrant, wielding her power of prophecy for her own gain. The entrances to the Ascent were sealed, only recently uncovered by treasure seekers and earthquakes. 

Following the Tyrant Sibyl's death--an event known only to her caretakers--she was replaced by another with less unsavory aims. However, the Tyrant Sibyl is buried inside, waiting to lure adventurers into her scheme to return to power, to reclaim the voice of prophecy from her successor, and command the undead legions that lurk within the dungeon.

This dungeon floor contains

• 12 rooms
• Interactive components
• Factions: The Tyrant Sibyl, the harpies in the Shaft of Light, the protectors of the current Sibyl, the ghost squadron
• Loot
• Magic items
• A perilous climb around the walls of the open shaft called the Ascent
  • Carte blanche to put whatever you want down there and to decide how deep in the shaft this dungeon is

All writing and art done by me. 

Written with stats for Old School Essentials by Gavin Norman, Cairn by Yochai Gal, and Into the Odd by Chris McDowall, The Sibyl of the Ascent should be playable with most B/X-derived systems, Odd-like systems, and probably anything else.
