Crypt of the Devil Lich: DCC RPG Edition - Hardcover Roleplaying Game

Goodman Games is proud to announce the re-release of one of its most cherished Dungeon Crawl Classics: The Crypt of the Devil Lich! This classic deathtrap dungeon, updated and converted for both 5E and the DCC RPG rules sets, was inspired by the dreaded Tomb of Horrors.

The adventure module is a fifth edition conversion of the classic dungeon module DCC #13: The Crypt of the Devil Lich, originally published in 2004 by Goodman Games. Truly a unique design, it pays homage to the trap-filled, meatgrinder-style dungeons popular in the late '70s and early '80s.

Designed for a group of four to six 7th level characters, the adventure was originally created for the 2004 1st Annual GenCon Dungeon Crawl Classics Team Tournament, a tradition that continues today. With some effort on the GM's part, the adventure can also be used for campaign play.

The heroes are sent into the Devil Lich's crypt to destroy her before she can return to power, as foreseen in a prophecy. However, the unknowing heroes have actually been tricked into entering her crypt to free her from her prison. If they are truly heroes, they will uncover the deception and defeat the evil Devil Lich before she can unleash her dark designs on the surface world.

The re-release features a detailed introduction chapter, including notes on how to adjust the adventure for higher or lower levels, using it during campaign play, and running the adventure as a team tournament. It also includes the devilish backstory of the Devil Lich and her dark machinations.

In keeping with the tradition of classic modules like Tomb of Horrors and Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, the book includes 40+ full-color player handouts, with at least one interior encounter illustration for each numbered encounter area. Additionally, six fully developed player characters, based on the original tournament characters, are included.

The Crypt of the Devil Lich is presented as a hardcover, saddle-stitched book, with all-new cover art by Doug Kovacs. The DCC RPG conversion was performed by Goodman Games' own Bob Brinkman, a veteran game designer.

This re-release of one of Goodman Games' most cherished Dungeon Crawl Classics promises to provide a thrilling and challenging experience for players and Game Masters alike, as they delve into the depths of the Devil Lich's crypt and uncover the deception that lies within.
