The Cursed Crypt

by David Sharkey

I tried to see if you could make an adventure in chatGPT.

I wrote the following to it.

"Create an adventure using D&D BECMI rules. It should be a level 2 dungeon with 12 rooms with descriptions of monsters, treasures and traps. The adventure has 4 players."

Reply:

Of course! Here is a short D&D BECMI adventure for level 2 players with 12 rooms, monsters, treasures and traps:

Adventure Title: "The Cursed Crypt"

Adventure Summary: The adventure begins with four adventurers arriving in a small village called Willowbrook. The village has been plagued by mysterious disappearances and attacks in the surrounding woods. The villagers suspect that an old crypt nearby is responsible for the misery. The players are recruited to explore the crypt and free the village from its curse.

Room 1 - Entrance Hall: The players enter the crypt and hear a cold wind howling through the corridor. In front of them, they see an old stone door leading deeper into the crypt.

Room 2 - Bone-Filled Corridor: The corridor is filled with bone remnants. Suddenly, a group of hungry zombies attacks the players.

Room 3 - Wall of Flames: Players reach a wall of flames blocking the way. They must find a way to extinguish the flames or locate an alternative route.

Room 4 - The Shrine: This room is filled with valuable religious artifacts. Players can collect treasures, but it also triggers a trap that causes the room to collapse.

Room 5 - Spider-Infested Corridor: The corridor is infested with giant spiders. Players must defeat the spiders to continue.

Room 6 - The Enchanted Fountain: An enchanted spring flows with elixir of life. Players can choose to drink, but it temporarily swaps their bodies with another player.

Room 7 - The Treasure Chamber: Players find the crypt's treasure chamber filled with jewels and gold. However, the room is protected by a magical mist that causes hallucinations.

Room 8 - Haunted Corridor: An eerie corridor where players are haunted by ghosts. They must find a way to stop the ghosts or escape the corridor.

Room 9 - Dark Labyrinth: Players face a dark labyrinth. They must solve a maze to find their way out while avoiding dangerous traps.

Room 10 - Grave of the Undead Lord: Players encounter a powerful vampire in his grave. They must defeat him to remove the crypt's curse.

Room 11 - Cursed Altar: A cursed altar is the centerpiece of ritual sacrifices. Players must cleanse the altar to break the curse.

Room 12 - Escape Tunnel: After defeating the vampire and purifying the altar, players discover a secret escape route that leads them out of the crypt. They return to Willowbrook as heroes.

I hope this adventure provides your players with a fun and challenging experience within the D&D BECMI rules! You can add more details and modify enemies and treasures as needed to tailor the adventure to your players' level and interests.

No doubt that some details need to be added and corrected a bit, but you are off to a good start.
