The Mosslight Toll Station

A first level D&D 5e 2024 adventure to break the ice

The storm has broken and the river has risen

Three days ago, the Great Vernal Deluge tore the Mosslight Bridge apart, snapping ancient stone like dry twigs. The bridge guards have returned to town, shivering and white-faced, telling tales of a midnight roar and a "hungry shadow" lurking in the ruins.

But for the Town Treasurer, the tragedy isn't the bridge—it's what was left behind. The Great Ledger and a season’s worth of taxes are locked inside an iron-bound strongbox on the ground floor of the toll station. The building hasn't washed away yet, but it’s wrenched from its foundation, tilting precariously into the churning white water.

The Job:

Travel to the sinking ruins of the Mosslight Toll Station.

Recover the strongbox and return it with its wax seal unbroken.

The Pay: 50 Gold Pieces and "Claimant’s Rights" to anything else you find inside.

Master Vane is looking for a crew with steady feet and sharp wits. The floor is slick, the walls are groaning, and you aren't the only scavengers who have noticed the station is ripe for the picking.

Will you brave the sinking stone, or let the Mosslight swallow the town's future?

No more 'Yes thats Steve the Elf, and they are wearing all black'!

Shopping and Eating Out

And then your players want to do some shopping at... that place over there.... What does it sell? What does it look like? Is it well stocked? Is it cheap? Or perhaps they want to grab a bit to eat... whats on the menu?

Random business generators for:

• Blacksmitherys
• Bookstores
• Clothing Stores
• General Stores
• Herbalists
• Jewellers
• Magic Shops
• Market Stalls
• Taverns

Is it a rundown operation with a stuck door and smelling of old socks, or is it a clean Scandinavian style furniture store with a confusing layout designed to make you part with your hard won gold, or is it an unorganised emporium full of books, knick-knacks, magic items, and a talking cat?

Is the menu high class, or is it just good old honest food? Perhaps it has a signature cocktail?

Detailed Characters & Shops

Maybe you want them to meet one of the owners of a special store, or perhaps they meet 'Dog' a loyal companion?

What do they look like? What equipment do they have? What is their background? What makes them tick? All this and tips for roleplaying them to leave an awesome impression on your players.

Meet them here all lovingly created with human made illustrations.

New Magic Items

And magic? Did we mention magic?

From Mrs Noggs Emporium we have assembled a collection of 80 unqiue illustrated magic items, ranging from weapons of wonder to amusing trinkets.

As Mrs Nogg says "Always keep some magic in your pocket... along with snacks."

All this in this illustrated 376 page book.

At the edge of the bay, law holds because someone keeps it standing. In Dalraven, taxes move under guard, ships come and go under watch, and silence can mean as much as open violence.

Soulstone #004 continues the Moonshroud Realms webzine with a grounded look at Dalraven, a hard coastal town where river, sea, and mountain road converge beneath civic pressure, royal authority, and the strain of frontier survival. This volume shifts the lens north of Bridgeport into a duchy shaped by isolation, political tension, and the constant need to maintain order where the wild presses close.

This volume introduces the dragonblood, a people born of war and ritual who now endure as a legacy of ancient alliance, alongside the Circle of the Sands, a druid subclass shaped by heat, scarcity, and the hard balance of desert survival. Alongside new magic items and further expansion of the setting, the Gutterdeep Warrens dungeon serial descends into its fire-scarred fourth chapter, while Taxman delivers a low-level investigative adventure centered on overdue revenues, false quarantine, and a conspiracy tightening around Dalraven’s civic heart.

Soulstone #004 contains the following content:

• FEATURED SETTING: DALRAVEN – A wary coastal town at the mouth of the Raven River, positioned between mountain pass, harbor trade, and the unknown reaches beyond its walls.
  • SIGNIFICANT LOCATIONS – A detailed look at Dalraven’s roads, docks, gates, shrines, businesses, civic center, and the influential sites that shape daily life, trade, and local authority.
  • GOVERNANCE OF DALRAVEN – Royal rule, proxy ducal authority, the Council of Four, and the political structure holding the town together under frontier pressure.
  • OTHER KEY TOWNFOLK – Ready-to-use local NPCs tied to Dalraven’s military, commerce, faith, and everyday tensions.
• THE BLACK GULLS – A GM-facing guide to the shadow network operating through Elderland’s ports, controlling smuggling, redirected cargo, false manifests, and maritime criminal leverage.
• DIVINE FOCUS: CORA – A look at the Water Primordial, the enduring force behind tides, seas, depth, storm, and elemental balance.
• ITEMS OF NOTE – New magic items including the Cape of Soot, Cave Delver’s Ring, Cloak of Goblinkind, Map of Recall, Mask of the Wild Voice, and Vanishing Step Boots.
• CHARACTER OPTIONS – New player-facing content built for the D&D5.5e ruleset:
• SPECIES: DRAGONBLOOD– A long-lived people forged through draconic and elven ritual, carrying the legacy of ancient war into the modern age.
  • DRUID SUBCLASS: CIRCLE OF THE SANDS – A desert warden subclass built around heat haze, endurance, scarcity, and relentless environmental mastery.
  • DUNGEON SERIAL: GUTTERDEEP WARRENS – Chapter Four of the serial, where goblin faction structure deepens, fire becomes authority, and the northern branch ends at the Flamebinder Rift.
• ADVENTURE: TAXMAN – A travel and investigation adventure for 2nd-level characters involving overdue taxes, a sealed garrison, hired mercenaries, and Burgomeister Vayne’s unraveling conspiracy.
• MAPS, TOKENS & ART ASSETS – Six full-color maps in GM-labeled and player-facing formats, plus 80 unique tokens provided in two styles for 160 total tokens, and 106 art assets for use in VTTs, handouts, or campaign play.

This content was created using the Dungeons & Dragons 5.5e Ruleset (2024), but is also compatible with D&D5e (2014).

This is an adventure for Cepheus Engine.

Criminals often escape the long arm of the Sonoran Interstellar Police (SIPOL) by hiding in small settlements on backwater worlds along the edge of the sector. They know that even SIPOL cannot be everywhere at once. The chances that they will find someone at one of these settlements is low even if they know, for sure, that they are hiding at one of these.

Local inhabitants of these settlements are notorious about defending locals against law enforcement. They do not consider themselves as part of the “big world” sector and do not usually cooperate with the police.

Daniel Ivanov is an officer of SIPOL. He summons the travelers to offer them a tip. He knows the location of a wanted criminal with a good bounty on her head. He has learned that she is hiding on a backwater world on the edge of the sector called Gammis III. She can be taken dead or alive. He just needs someone to go out and bring her (or her body) in. Her bounty is CR 250,000.
