[Free] Dungeons & Lairs #53: Gargoyle Cathedral (Levels 5 Version Only)

Gargoyle Cathedral is a Fifth Edition plug-in adventure for four characters with an average party level (APL) of 5, 8, 11, or 14. This document offers a general guideline on scaling the adventure for each level. The characters enter a gothic cathedral to rid it of the pests within. Little do they know that the cathedral is the lair of deadly creatures disguised as statues. And that’s not even the worst thing there—pockets of strong temporal magic pose a great risk to any creature that enters the cathedral, potentially shunting them back into the past.
