The Bane of Llywelyn

Sign in to edit

The Bane of Llewellyn is a 40-page sourcebook for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition released in February 1985.

Official synopsis[]

Excitement and unrest grip the land of Pellham. Two hundred years ago, the royal line of kings was deposed and replaced by a High Council. The current council is well-meaning but hopelessly incompetent. Everyone agrees that a drastic change is needed for the kingdom to survive.

The ancient Prophecy of Brie foretells that in Pellham's darkest hour, a king from the past will return to restore the kingdom. The time of the prophecy is now. All is in readiness: the symbols of the ancient kings have been recovered, the keys to the royal tomb are in hand, powerful magics to revive the long-dead king have been secured at great cost. Only one problem remains... no one knows where the king is buried!

The Bane of Llywelyn concludes the epic adventure of the Prophecy of Brie - can YOU insure that the quest will?
