A good one-shot, however there are a significant number of mispellings (did it go through a translator?) and some missing information when you get to the monastary.

I felt like this was a good adventure overall. No negative thoughts really. I added a I added a skeleton and warhorse to the entry to the valley as a warning to players. I was running it for a level 4 group of 3. Players enjoyed this one more than others I have ran. Overall, good job. Worth looking into and not a long adventure. 3 hours here.

Thank you for sharing! I ran this adventure to introduce a new player to D&D and to our group. He chose to play as a monk, so this fit perfectly! He got into it quickly and the whole group soon was so engaged with the adventure that I chose to expand the oneshot for another session. I added another room and some lore for the monk and the other players to explore. They enjoyed it and got really creative when fighting the monsters and the big bad. I had no problem adding this adventure to our campaign and it was also easy to modify! The printer-friendly version has a nice and simple design. I find this very helpful as a DM and I could use the handout to quickly check for informations and also for taking notes :)

The setting and descriptions of this oneshot are really well done. The idea of undead swarming a winter village was very "Game of Thrones" and my players loved defending the town. As far as balance, I felt the town encounter (should the players decide to long rest) was far too hard and the final battle far too easy. That said, my players liked the spooky ambience of a wild winter mountain.

Dear Tobias, i wish to thank you for a great adventure. My son and his friends enjoyed it alot. I even took it to our D&D group and they loved it, but i told my son to play dumb since he played it. So thanks again !!! :D

Just played this through with my wife and two children as a New Years Eve one-shot. There are some spelling errors or typos in the document that could do with ironing out but otherwise everyone had a great time and really enjoyed the story. With three level 3 characters we completed this in a little over an hour and a half and this was perfect for the children's attention spans! Overall we really had fun playing this adventure. Thanks!

good for new players. a lot of room to add personal touches and expand content. my group loved it. some spelling mistakes though but doesn't detract from quality.

I like to play one-shot adventures and I find that for players already familiar with DnD, starting at level 1 can be rather disappointing. This can be a nice adventure for a level 4 party if used for a quick session or it can be adapted for a larger storyline (more on this later). The story itself it's okay, making the characters take the call of adventure early, a clear objective and a villain to fight at the end. But some parts of the adventure might not work as well as the others, during the middle point of the story the party has to do a trip to the site of the adventure, this part is not that much fleshed out and you might want to do some changes. Also, in the final battle against the necromancer you might want to change her spell list so that she uses necromancy spells (she is mostly an evocker with large HP and invisibility). There are some typos here and there, but what really bugs me is that some encounters are obfuscated in the text, on it's even inside of a "read aloud box". This is not a problem, but something that can be improved for some ease of reading, and that would also include adding a page reference for some monsters. As I said before, you might want to change thisfor a longer session or two. You might want to make the trip to the site more perilous or you might want to change the ending. This can be a good story to introduce the Shadowfell early on, and forcing the party to travel inside the plane might be something unexpected to throw off your players. Or maybe you players fail to defeat the mage and it can turn to be a more horror themed story. Over all, I think it's a good product and you should give it a try.

I got it for free, so I can't complain too much. That said, the description talked about adventures in beautiful environments, but was pretty light on descriptions, illustrations, and maps. Also, it needs to be edited, badly. It consistently uses "negrotic" in place of "necrotic", which has to be the most unfortunate typo I've ever come across.

"The Howling Valley" was a potentially useful little addition to a larger module, but it was made worthless by the omission of maps and indices. Without those components, it was nothing more than a waste of the time I took to read through it. I can't use it at all.

A very straightforward adventure, it suffers from improperly-applied creativity and a lack of editing. For example, a footprint with a claw and purple feathers is mentioned, but no creature ever show up matching that description. There is too much reliance on random events, which can swing the adventure between too easy and too hard. The writers assumes too much about what the players might do, instead of placing features and encounters and giving the DM guidance on the intentions of the creatures.

This gives me a lot of help with the West Marches game I am developing for my group. Coming up with encounters is fun but it is also time consuming. This gives me a helping hand and I can easily incorporate it into our world.

This booklet is a simple and straightforward introductory module to D&D. The contained adventure is fairly standard fare, and the text is in some serious need of an editing pass, mainly due to typos and missing words.

A DM looking for a simple one-shot or campaign kickstart may find some use here among the plot hooks and creatures, provided that they can overcome the frequent typos in their reading

I HIGHLY recommend an update to the file to correct these issues
