The Tomb of Horrors Grindhouse 3: The Tomb Needs Heroes (D&D 5e)

Roleplaying Games :: Dungeons & Dragons

Rated PG-13 :: Everything comes in 3s, and Acererak’s Vengeance is one of them. Returning from the beyond, Acererak once again has risen, this time seeking new adventurers to make suffer in his sadistic dungeon. Arguably the Most Infamous dungeon in Dungeons & Dragons history, the Tomb of Horrors has claimed the lives of many a favorite PC since its creation in 1975. Designed to challenge the skill of expert players and to test players who boasted of having player characters able to best any challenge. Of course, when faced with such a challenge there is always the other option. Through waves upon waves of PCs at the dungeon, hope for the best, and as you die shout "There is 49 more of me. Acererak!". Each player brings in 5 characters. As a character dies, the next character is brought up as if the character was there the whole time. When the player runs out of characters, then they have the option of A. asking another player for a PC, B. Make a new Character. C. Reset an already dead PC, D. Choose one of the DM's "Special" PC. DISCLAIMER: Though this is a 5e Dungeons & Dragons game, it has been modified to be much more deadly, as the good Gygax intended.
