You have my niece Bridget to blame for this one and her fan love of the wonderful Netflix series Stranger Things (which I share). I have always wanted to do a Dungeon Starter based on the tremendous first edition D&D PHB cover and that has somehow gotten mixed up with Bridget’s desire to slay the Demon Prince.

Enjoy!

I’m very proud of my involvement with this project. What Jason is too polite to say in his post on his site is he did a wonderful job in revising my work to the point that several of my starters (unlike Miller’s) have been essentially rewritten to the point of being almost new to fit his high standards. Jason’s products are simply some of the the best supplements in general you will find for Dungeon World and I am very pleased beyond measure he found something worthwhile in my efforts for the hobby. This has been a very dark year for me personally and his updates on this project along with his inspired revisions always made me smile. I hope this little collection of Dungeon Starters will make you smile as well-

Here’s Jason:

20 DUNGEON STARTERS

One side project I’ve been chipping away at for close to a year is this collection of dungeon starters, which just went live on DriveThruRPG. It contains 5 starters by Marshall Miller and 15 by Mark Tygart, all edited and updated from their original forms.

The original versions of these starters are still online and available for free! There are no plans for that to change.

So why collect them and charge money? I wanted to put the best of the bunch in one convenient pdf, with a consistent design and editorial standard. That took a surprising amount of time and effort!

So I’m charging $5. That’s 25 cents per starter — seems like a decent deal to me.

Demogorgon (Solitary, Huge, Stealthy, Planar, Terrifying)

Withering tentacles (d10+3 damage) 20 HP 1 armor

Reach, Near

Special Qualities: Gaze attack can charm or drive insane

Demogorgon appears as an 18-foot-tall (5.5 m), reptilian (or amphibious) hermaphroditic demon prince with a somewhat humanoid form. Two mandrill heads sprout from his twin snake-like necks, and his arms end in long tentacles. His two heads have individual minds, called Aameul (the left head) and Hethradiah (the right head). One of Demogorgon’s best-kept secrets, even from his cultists and minions, is that his two personas strive to dominate (and even kill) each other, but are unable to because they are aspects of one another. Despite this duality, many of Demogorgon’s plots revolve around either permanently separating or uniting these two personas. His blue-green skin is plated with snake-like scales, his body and legs are those of a giant lizard, and his thick tail is forked. His appearance testifies to his command of cold-blooded things such as serpents, reptiles, and octopi.
