The Cycle of Cerberus

Greetings wonderful Foundry VTT community and Patrons. I am thrilled to present a game-ready DnD 5e adventure module for Foundry Virtual Tabletop: The Cycle of Cerberus!

(For illustrative purposes, not a physical product)

The Cycle of Cerberus Adventure Module

This labor of love is the achievement of over 25 individuals working together to bring you an adventure of Herculean proportions. The funny thing is that it started as a basic idea from Kevin (Kev's Lounge) but it eventually got bigger and bigger.

A key aspect of this collaboration was the story (Adventure PDF), which was the guideline for all the creators (maps, music, papercraft, items and paperminis). The Writing team involved seven writers and it was orchestrated by Alex (TavernTales).

This way, Kevin and Alex were team Leaders, but we also had a general project management role for this collaboration. This key role was performed by Diego (Paper Mage).

Foundry Virtual Tabletop Module

The entire Cycle of Cerberus adventure is available for use in Foundry Virtual Tabletop, with preconfigured Scenes, Actors, Journal Entries, Items, and Audio Playlists. The Cycle of Cerberus module is available now (as of August 17) for all Foundry VTT license owners. You can find and install the module using the Modules Browser in the Setup and Configuration panel of your Foundry Virtual Tabletop server.

Once you install the module and activate it within one of your worlds, you will be displayed a prompt to import all of the module content (if you wish) which will automatically import all the adventure content and create a folder structure within your game world.

Playtest Feedback

If you have an opportunity to try out this adventure module, please post your playtest feedback as a comment so that I can continue improving the Foundry VTT implementation of the Cycle of Cerberus adventure.

About the Adventure

The Cycle of Cerberus is an adventure designed to take a group of 4 to 5 characters from 5th to 8th level. Inspired by the 12 Labors of Hercules in Greek mythology, this adaptation incorporates the classic quests, monsters, and motif of ancient myth while injecting our interpretation of the personality and flavour of the world's greatest roleplaying game. This story was written by TavernTales, Thai Williams, DM Tuz, Kraven's Keep, Simon Menanteau-Ledouble, Mike Myler, and C. A. Berlitz. It also includes a number of dynamic and evocative monster stat blocks by Tim Gonzalez that are sure to terrorize your players.

Twelve Herculean Labors

Twelve unique and memorable labors, including 14 battlemaps, all pre-configured with walls, doors, light sources, and tokens.

Each labor is a different challenge and there’s a map for each one, available as easy to print files, or a complete picture for your virtual table tops! These beautiful maps show off the distinct styles from TavernTales, Tom Cartos, Chibbin Grove, g0dxmode, MapGuffin, Mutenn, Mark Drummond J and Venatus Maps.

Deadly Adversaries and Helpful Allies

To accompany the characters and creatures your heroes will be meeting, there is a complete arsenal of tokens for you to use, so that everyone can put a face to a name. All of the artwork for these original creatures are by Kev's Lounge, Kraven's Keep, Brave Adventures, Paper Mage, Okumarts, Printable Heroes, Paper Forge, Decapitated Markers, Chibbin Grove and Trash Mob minis.

Mythical Magic Items

An adventure wouldn’t be complete without some thematic magic items for the party to keep as souvenirs (and of course to use throughout the adventure). All of these unique items were masterly crafted and illustrated by The Tavern of Trinkets.

Evocative Original Music

We wanted to take the immersion to the next level for this collaboration, and Adventure Music achieved just that by composing five original tracks for you to use throughout the adventure.
