Shrine of the Sable Wings

Shrine of the Sable Wings

A Shadowdark-Compatible Thieves’ Cut Adventure

Dare to trespass in the shrine of a forgotten bat-goddess. Beneath crumbling stone and echoing halls, something stirs—fangs in the dark, wings in the silence, and relics untouched by time.

In the inaugural Thieves' Cut adventure for levels 1–3, your players will:

• Confront the children of Vatra, goddess of dusk and silence
• Encounter cultists, cursed altars, and a mad kobold prophet
• Face the Mother of Shrieks—and earn her judgment

Perfect for a single night of play or dropping into your home campaign, Shrine of the Sable Wings blends fast-paced exploration and meaningful choices in true Shadowdark style.

Can you survive the dark—and what waits beneath?

Although written for Shadowdark RPG, Shrine of the Sable Wings is easily adapted for most OSR and classic fantasy systems.
