D&D Red Lion Contract: Black Tar Trail (@Duellers Den)
Description
This Contract: Black Tar Trail
This is an unusual one, heroes; a tremor near Leawater has revealed an opening to the terrifying subterranean realm of the Underdark. Brave hunters are venturing within in search of monsters and glory, but those monsters are also coming up to the surface and wreaking havoc on locals. See what you can do to repel these threats and ensure the safety of the town people.

Join fellow adventurers for an evening of Dungeons & Dragons — a tabletop game of storytelling, teamwork, and dice-fueled chaos.
