After the War of a Thousand Battles, the merfolk and aquatic elves thought they'd completely exterminated the sahuagin menace from their sea homes on the Western Shelf. But a few survived, and bred, and hated the merfolk and the elves for their attempt to exterminate the sahuagin race.
Now they've massed an army, and the roar of their underwater ballista rock the northern walls of the merfolk kingdom.
Oh, and you have to get a ring from the king of the merfolk in the middle of all this.
War in the Deep is a 4-encounter D&D 4th edition adventure that's been designed so it can be scaled for 1th through 9th level adventurers. The climax can fit into part of a larger quest or campaign, or the story can be left as a one-shot adventure.
Each monster is presented in three variations, one for 1st level adventurers, one for 5th level, and the right-hand version for 9th level. This makes it easy to tweak the monsters for a party with slightly more or less experience than that specified.
In addition, each piece of dialogue is presented in two columns: a specific piece of dialogue that you can read just as it stands, and a detailed summary that you can change as you see fit.
