Space Tales offers a universe of system-agnostic sci-fi adventures, mysteries, and encounters designed to drop into any campaign and bring the vastness of the galaxy to your table.
This is part of the Blackbox Archive series.
~Each vessel a voice from the void. Each signal a story waiting to be heard.
This adventure was created by Kelfecil for the Space Tales series!
- Author, Design & Organization: Constantine "Kelfecil" Christakis
- Collaborating Map Artist: Scribbles in Space
- Themes: Boarding Action, Cargo Recovery, Ship Control
- Setting: any, Space Tales (Frontier Routes)
- Expected Sessions/Playtime: 1–2 Sessions (~3–5 hours)
A Molotok-Class patrol vessel drifts near the edge of a controlled traffic lane, its armored hull dark, its turrets still powered, and its cargo bay locked around something important. The patrol beacon returns a valid security code, although no crew answers the hail. Bridge logs are restricted. Turret records have been altered. One container has vanished from the visible manifest while its mass still registers inside the hold. Whoever reaches the Hammer first may claim the ship, the cargo, or the truth behind why it stopped responding.
The Molotok is large, armored, and built for control. Doors lock with mechanical force. Turret systems track nearby vessels. Cargo cranes shift sealed containers through the central bay while Engineering decides whether the ship can move, fight, or stay dead in space. Rival claimants, security forces, pirates, or salvagers may arrive at any time, turning each room into a pressure point where access matters as much as firepower.
Molotok - Blackbox Archive release is a system-agnostic sci-fi scenario that anyone can integrate into their games. Designed for 1 to 2 sessions, it presents a flexible patrol-gunboat scenario centered on boarding action, cargo recovery, disputed ownership, and ship control. With modular events, flexible faction involvement, and no fixed canon, it supports stories of tactical entry, salvage pressure, survivor rescue, piracy, or a crew attempting to claim the Hammer as their own vessel.

This adventure was created by Kelfecil for the Space Tales series!
- Writing & Design: Constantine "Kelfecil" Christakis

- Map Artist: Venatus Maps
Themes: Military Hunt, Hostile Wilderness, Ambush Survival, Genetically Modified Predators
Setting: Any, Space Tales
Expected Sessions/Playtime: 1 session (3-5 hours total)
Tracks lead into green,
howls follow behind…
Valcyr’s forest corridor has swallowed every team sent into it. Patrols vanish between clear paths. Survey crews leave behind broken tags and scorched bark. The few recovered transmissions mention thermal fire, clawed shapes in the brush, and a command signal repeating from somewhere deeper in the trees.
A new squad is sent in to finish what the others could not. Their orders are simple enough on paper: enter from the western approach, follow the Wulven trail, identify the Alpha’s ground, and end the threat. The first signs are easy to find. Blood on roots. Armor torn open. Heat traces cooling beside the path. The harder question is whether the trail was discovered or placed.
The Wulven do not defend one camp or wait behind one line. They move through the forest as a pack, using Riflemen to control paths, Clawrunners to punish broken formation, EMP bursts to disrupt coordination, and radiation charges to force movement out of cover. Every loud step, delayed scan, and exposed flank gives them more to use. By the time the squad reaches the Alpha, the hunt has already tested how well they move together.
Iron Fangs is a system-agnostic sci-fi forest hunt adventure built around tracking, tactical ambushes, and a final confrontation against a genetically modified pack leader.
Act 1 follows the squad from the western entry point into the central forest paths, where they recover signs of earlier patrols and begin building The Hunt while trying to avoid raising Pack Awareness. Act 2 draws the squad toward one of several possible ambush points, where the Wulven use prepared lanes, false heat, EMP disruption, and radiation pressure to break formation. Act 3 brings the fight to the Alpha’s ground, a lower open area watched from the slope above.
The adventure uses persistent mechanics for The Hunt, Pack Awareness, Ambush Pressure, Marked Prey, and Exposure. These systems shape how the Wulven respond, how prepared their ambush becomes, and what conditions the squad faces during the final fight.

Crits and Consequence Cards offer a fun alternative to rolling extra damage dice on a Critical Hit. When a player lands a Critical Hit, they can choose to use the standard damage from the Player’s Handbook or draw a card and let fate take over.
These cards are built for chaos, creativity, and laughs, mixing high humor, pop-culture references, nostalgia, and a little bit of cringe into your game.
For the best experience, we recommend giving players the choice between normal Critical Hit damage and drawing a card. We do not recommend using these cards for NPCs, since that can feel punitive and take away from the players’ role as the heroes of the story.

About This Adventure
Barrow of the Five Kings is a short adventure written for the Dolmenwood roleplaying name published by Necrotic Gnome. The adventure is an exploration of an ancient burial mound haunted by five spectral chieftains and their undead servants. Recent events have awakened the antler-crowned wraiths and the ancient mound now yawns open. The Antler Wraiths have begun kidnapping victims to bolster the ranks of the Wights that guard an ancient secret within the barrow.
Bold adventurers descending into the tomb must navigate the perils of its haunted halls, and risk the wrath of the Antler Wraiths and Wights interred within.
Time is short. The prisoners are running out of air.
Required Books
The Referee requires the Dolmenwood core books (Player’s Book, Campaign Book, and Monster Book) to run this adventure, though it should be compatible with most B/X style systems with little to no conversion required.
Location and Connections
This adventure can take place in any hex of the Dolmenwood where a barrow could be placed in a forested area but would be ideally suited to Hex 0810 or Hex 1206.
Character Levels 3-4
This adventure is suitable for PCs of 3rd or 4th level. A total of approximately 11,000gp worth of monetary treasure is present. New magic items are listed with their gp value, and some rare comestibles and herbs are present.
