In a remote corner of the countryside sits a long-abandoned, burnt-out old church. Tonight, this decrepit building will become the focus of a lot of attention, caused by its tragic past and the mystery locked in the crypt below

Having come into possession of a key - desperately wanted for over a century by the local cultists to renew their pact of protection with the Moon Goddess - the Adventurers will have to choose whether to listen to their heart, their reason or their greed in this story; for the crypt beneath the church contains many ancient relics, but three keys are needed to access them…

The Burnt Church’ is a scenario for Hardi or other medieval fantasy role-playing games.

It is intended for a group of two to six Adventurers of level 1 to 4, for a duration of 2 to 4 hours of play.

It inaugurates the 'Detour' line, short but intense adventures centered on a specific location, playable as a one-shot or easily integrated into a campaign and intended for experienced game masters (GM).

I think these modules with Talespire maps are a brilliant idea. They are a godsend when my son wants me to put a game together with pretty much no notice. I wish there were more of them.

Hi Aaron, thank you for your kind words, I hope you and your son are having fun playing.

These days, I'm mostly working on my OSR game 'Hardy', and a bestiary (which should be available in Q4 2022), but a 4th and new free adventure, set in a vineyard, is (slowly) progressing. I'll do my best to release it asap.

The link for the board is in p.2 of the PDF, in the parchment section. Just click on it with Talespire open, and it will add the board to your current campaign.

If you want the slab only (without the PCs...), it's under the name 'Temple of the wild'.

The maps are nice but the shadows are very harsh. It's hard to see what's in the shadows. Do you have any maps without shadows available?

Hello Aviv, and thank you for your interest.

Well, you are quite right, the shadows are indeed a bit dark ^^
I ran the adventure 3 times to test it, but always with Talespire, in 3D, so I did not use the 2D maps.

Unfortunately, I cannot provide you the maps without shadows: it may not seem like it, but each large 2D map is a composite of 6 to 10 screenshots taken within Talespire ; stitched and woven together in Photoshop. Hence, each 2D map is several hours of work. And I don't really feel like doing them all over again…
So I understand your remark, and I'll try to keep it in mind in my next adventures, to offer more readable 2D maps.

For this particular adventure, the issue might be less problematic than you think. It's not a dungeon crawler, there are no hidden rooms, secret passages or pits… The maps are merely here to illustrate the environment, give a feeling of the place, and saving me from describing the rooms in the text. You can easily play the...See more

Thank you for the explanation.

I understand I can play without maps. I play at the table without screens, so I print off maps for the same reason you do, to illustrate the environment. :)

I look forward to your future releases.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
