The kobolds of Dragonscliff Keep need your help!

It is a truth universally acknowledged that all kobolds are in want of a dungeon to live in and a dragon to serve—or at least that’s what the kobolds of Dragonscliff Keep think. Tired of their jobs in the city, they stole three dragon eggs from a traveling merchant, captured a few juvenile dungeon monsters, and moved into some ruins they found in the cliffs near the coast.

Unfortunately for the kobolds, many of their monsters grew larger than they were and decided that kobolds make tasty snacks. When they moved into Dragonscliff Keep, there were forty kobolds in their group. Half of them were eaten, including their lead engineer. Not only are the surviving kobolds terrified they’ll be eaten next, they don’t know how to avoid any of the traps their lead engineer built as no one can decipher her notes.

A Draconic Miscalculation is an exciting dungeon designed for 3–5 players with 2nd–3rd level characters.
