Good morning, all! I wanted to introduce you to an adventure author I just discovered, Kelsey Dionne. Kelsey released a 5e adventure, The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse, as a free pdf on the dmsguild. You can find it here: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/215629/The-Secrets-of-Skyhorn-Lighthouse

Adventure Overview: The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse is a Dungeons & Dragons adventure designed for a group of four or five players of 5th-level characters. This adventure is meant to be dropped into any Dungeons & Dragons setting with a nearby seaport or harbort town.This adventure introduces four new creatures called eelfolk taken from the Arcane Library's beastiaries. Their statistics and combat cards (in addition to combat cards for all monsters/NPCs used herein) are included with the adventure.

I like the style Kelsey uses for the adventure. It is very "text-lite" and gives the DM enough info to add/embellish as they deem fit. Each NPC has a cool description of their unique traits, motivation/secret, etc. Really cool.

Kelsey also has a website, the arcane library, which you can reach here: https://www.thearcanelibrary.com/ If you sign up on her website you get another free 5e adventure! (I won't spoil what it is for you.).

Also, she has a youtube channel with some walkthroughs on here adventures which are very cool. See her youtube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe884czqhBIZIPXcE_ZA1Hw

So, I'm posting this as Kelsey was kind enough to let me convert The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse into a fantasy grounds module and share it with everyone here. Yay Kelsey! Everything in the module is Kelsey's with the exception of one map of the docks which is by Justin Mason (from the Big Book of Maps Kickstarter). I purchased the right to distribute that specific map from Justin.

I am planning to run the module this Sunday morning at 9:00 am MT and will be streaming it on twitch at www.twitch.tv/gwydione if anyone is interested in checking it out! I'll update this post if I don't get the game together in time.

Finally, I plan on converting the "subscriber only" module into an FG module as well when I have time. Have a great Thanksgiving all and, as always, please let me know if you have any issues with the module so I can fix them asap.

Zacchaeus - If you would, please pin this to the free modules thread. Thanks!

Please download the FG module and the pdf (you will get both if you follow the link below) directly from the dmsguild here:

Nice one!

Thanks, Trenloe! I saw you (or another mod) separated "Adventure Modules" on the 5E community modules page and put some of the adventures there. Can you also move Z1 - Zombie Curse and HOF2 - Putting a Krampus Into the Holiday into that "sub-section"? Perhaps also move Into the Woods by lesliev since that is a free adventure as well?

Done. Sorry, I obviously didn't look at the list hard enough :)

Just a quick bump on this. Myrdin Potter just found this again recently so I thought I'd remind everyone it is available for free on the dmsguild. Both the pdf and the fg module. Great adventure by The Arcane Library (Kelsey Dionne). Check it out if you haven't already! I can't post the actual module here, but you can follow the link to the dmsguild and download for free.

Wonderful Gwydion (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/member.php?45766-Gwydion)! Thanks for converting this to FG format and thanks to the author, Kelsey Dionne (https://www.thearcanelibrary.com/) for providing it for free! I cannot wait to run this for Elysium members. :)

Was looking for an adventure around a lighthouse and thought this was a great choice. Downloaded it but when I opened the unzipped file could not find the mod file to put in FG. What am I missing? Usually there is PS .mod file that is pretty evident. Sorry to bother. Thanks!

Looks like it's been strangely name. Open the ZIP file, go to The_Secrets_Of_Skyhorn_Lighhouse_V5-3 -> Fantasy Grounds. Extract the "The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse.mod.mpg" file to your FG \modules directory and remove the .mpg from the end so you have "The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse.mod"

Sorry for the delay. Traveling. Trenloe is correct. I need to get with Kelsey to find out why it was uploaded that way. Thx!

Thanks!!! The module is locked and loaded. This should be a great adventure to run for my group.
