The Cursed Crypt - Free RPG Encounter
Posted by Sarah Albom on
The air in the old crypt is musty and still. Your feet tread across sand, but deeper inside, the floor is immaculate. Intricate frescos decorate the walls, full of vibrant colour. Despite the heat of the desert outside, it is cold in here. Goosebumps rise along your arms - but from the chill, or from whatever lays inside, you don’t know
The Cursed Crypt is a free tabletop RPG map as part of our Encounter of the Week series. Designed with the Modular Realms’ Adventurer's Floor Tiles pack, this free D&D map can also be changed to work with other roleplaying systems.
Mystery, treasure, and undead monstrosities - this encounter has it all! Inspired by the ancient Egyptians, our D&D crypt map has a bit of a long-lost tomb theme. It’s designed for 4 players of level 4 (again, in the D&D 5e system), but you could easily add in a few more zombies to make it a challenge for a higher level party. On the PDF, you can find a photo of the map and details about what’s in each room. The PDF also has a good starting blurb to set the scene, a brief overview of the encounter, a backstory for those characters that like asking questions, and a few extra tips for running your game! To help with organisation, it’s designed so you have the essentials (i.e. the map and its descriptions) all on one page.
Our Cursed Crypt encounter is free to download and print for personal use. Feel free to share this post with anyone you think could be interested; however, please don’t further publish the PDF online or in print without the author’s written consent.
