The Barrow of the Tapping Crow

 By Tim Shorts

Self published

No system/level given


Premise: Crows sit atop a barrow in the woods, go investigate.


What do we get here?


  Over 2 pages we get a simple barrow to explore.


 Usability/formatting

 

 For simple content this is pretty good. I would really like to see the contents of the barrow tied together better thematically however if you can over look that it runs fine.


 I like the treasure, the magical bracers are whatever but the magical torch is pretty nice.


 The random monster encounter table only has four entries, which is fine, I am not sure they fit so well for such a small and enclosed location. 


 There is the odd grammar mistake in the writing which is not the end of the world.


Portability


   You could drop this into any woodland hex you have that needs spicing up.


Recommendation


 I like the idea, the execution just needs a couple more drafts to really amp this thing up. As is you can pull out and drop in easily enough I just don't love it despite the potential it has.
