The Toll: A Weekend Edition

A dead troll has left four unlikely heirs a bridge, its toll rights, and a mysterious chest—if they can hold the span until dawn.

Across six stages of one dangerous night, a baron's soldiers, river pirates, and the troll's kin test the heirs' resolve. Rising water adds urgency to an adventure where negotiation, defense, and difficult choices can matter as much as steel.

Plan one evening or a weekend gathering for this focused one-session adventure. The Game Master Book includes a six-hour running order and guidance for a condensed four-hour route.

• One evening: an estimated 4–6 hours.

• Comfortable pace: follow the six-hour running order.

• Shorter gathering: use the four-hour condensed route.

These are planning estimates. Your group's choices, pace, and time spent exploring affect the actual length.

• 21-page Game Master Book PDF: six stages of the night, bridge locations, encounters, running order, scaling guidance, custom stat blocks, and three possible endings.

• 3-page Players' Guide and 16-page Character Pack PDFs: four sixth-level builds — paladin, rogue, druid, and barbarian — with selectable names, histories, personal ties, private pages, and simplified companion blocks.

• 9-page Game Master Maps PDF: gorge overview, bridge plan and section, five gridded encounter maps, and a record sheet.

• 8-page Players' Maps PDF with public versions of the maps.

• 10-page Handouts PDF, two separate cover PDFs, and nine original PNG illustrations.

• Optional original Word versions of the three main books, kept in a separate folder.

• A start-here guide to the download's contents.

For 2–4 players and one Game Master, using the supplied sixth-level characters. Designed for Fifth Edition play. Your table's Fifth Edition core books, dice, and pencils are required; a printer is useful for the supplied maps and handouts.

The adventure is built around its four heirs, with scaling for two to four players and simplified GM-run companions for smaller groups. It is an adventure supplement, not a standalone rules system or an automated virtual-tabletop module.
