The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun

Template:BookThe Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun is an adventure module for 1st Edition AD&D, for player characters levels 5-10 and presumably for a party size of 6-8 if following directly on from S4: The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth.

Blurb

"This special module is a combined wilderness and dungeon adventure scenario. It contains background information, referee's notes, encounter keys, outdoor and dungeon level maps, and new monsters and treasures. While it is designed to interface with THE LOST CAVERNS OF TSOJCANTH, this module is capable of standing alone. Likewise, while it is played within the Greyhawk Campaign, it can easily be adapted to play in any individual campaign which employs the ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS^TM game system"
