Dungeon Crawl Classics: Crypt Of The Devil Lich

Crypt of the Devil Lich, hardback megadungeon for Dungeon Crawl Classics

“An ancient prophecy sends you into the crypt of the Devil Lich! The toughest dungeon crawl since Tomb of Horrors!

An ancient prophecy sends your heroes into the crypt of the Devil Lich. They must destroy her, before she can return to power. Once inside, your heroes face horrors that could only be dreamt of by a mad half-drow half-fiend lich!

We invite you into the Crypt of the Devil Lich, the most vicious dungeon crawl since Tomb of Horrors!

Created in homage to Gygax’s classic with the goal of providing an even greater challenge, Crypt of the Devil Lich became an instant legend when it was first run as a tournament dungeon crawl. After all, this is the adventure with a mummy dragon, the hall of prophets, and a castle suspended by chains above a lava sea – not to mention a legendary villain! Now, more than 15 years after its original Gen Con debut, we are updating it for the DCC rules sets.

Perhaps the most cherished dungeon crawl ever published by Goodman Games, Crypt of the Devil Lich has been completely updated and converted to new rules sets. It’s ready for your table: are your players ready for the devil lich?

The heroes are sent into the Devil Lich’s crypt to destroy her before she can return to power, as foreseen in a prophecy. However, the unknowing heroes have actually been tricked into entering her crypt to free her from her prison. If they are truly heroes, they will uncover the deception and defeat the evil Devil Lich before she can unleash her dark designs on the surface world.

The original adventure was designed for Gen Con 2004, where Goodman Games ran the First Annual Dungeon Crawl Classics team tournament. This tradition of competitive tournament dungeons continues to this day. The adventure can also be used for campaign play and as a one-shot non-competitive module – but of course it also works well as a tournament.
