About this Adventure

You can run this adventure for players higher
than Level 4 but you need to adjust the
encounter numbers so that you make it a
challenge. This is a small-ish straight forward
for the most part dungeon meant to be used
as a random road encounter, or a quest in a
village/town the players are residing in.
Starting the Story

Have a passing by commoner ask the
players if they are adventurers, and have
him go on that adventurers are needed in
the nearby village to clear out the local
mine from a Rust Monster infestation. The
When the players reach the Mine, please

read:
You reach the foot of a shadowy-colored
hill, where you can clearly see the Mines
entrance. Long iron rails are coming out of
the entrance, which is only about 8ft tall
10ft wide. Around the entrance you can see
a bunch of picks, shovels and hammers
scattered around. A lot of them seem
extremely rusty but not necessarily old.
Just outside of the entrance there is a
settlement with a few small wooden houses
and a dozen tents around. You dont see a
lot of activity around the settlement but
there are a few dwarves around giving you
stares.
If the players ask around for the person

responsible, they are lead to Bhamir
Rockeater, male dwarf miner.
Adventurers, are you? Welcome to the

Hernduar Mine. My name is Bhamir
Rockeater, and I am in charge of the mining
process. I assume you are here because you
heard our calls for business?
After you give them some time to respond
and introduce themselves:
Well met. The Mine is infested with those
pesky Rust Monsters. Those things are
crawling everywhere! Id rather fight a
dozen orcs with a toothpick than having to
face another one of those things again!
They destroyed my favourite shovel, those
ill-nourished monstrosities! Id be happy to
pay 200 gp to anyone who will clear out this
mine of those pests before they ruin
everything in the mine.
If the players attempt to haggle with the

price, have them roll a DC15 Charisma
(Persuasion) check. On a success, the dwarf
reluctantly goes Fine. You can have this
wand as well, but only if you get to it right
now!
The wand is a wand of stones and it is made
out of granite.
Everything in the Mine except for the
Entrance is in darkness, so without a source of
light players without darkvision wont be able
to see and players with darkvision will have
disadvantage on their Wisdom (Perception)
ability checks.
1. Mine Entrance.
You see sturdy walls of granite forming a
10 ft wide tunnel venturing into the
darkness. After a right turn, you see 2
tunnels; one going NorthWest and one
going downhill towards the West. The rails
are split here, going towards both
directions.
2. Supplies Room
You enter a room where the rails end. You
see a large amount of iron wagons stacked
densely in one side of the room, the other
one having mostly mining tools and
supplies. Nothing seems to be corroded
here. There is a door that stands ajar at the
back of the room. A foul odor emits from
that room.
There is nothing of significance in this room

but you can throw in a fallen pouch with 20gp
in here with an easy investigation check if you
feel like it. If players attempt to see to the
next room without entering it they can see
barrels in the room but nothing else. If they
attempt to listen to noices, have them roll a
DC13 Wisdom (Perception) check. Success
means they are able to hear furious
munching.
(1 square = 10x10ft, ceilings are all 10ft high

except Room 12)
3. Food Storage Room

The door creaks horribly as you open it,
and with the creak an awful stench comes
with it. Gasping for air, you look around to
see a Food Storage room, but something
must have gone bad a long time ago to
smell this badly. Inside the room you see 4
troglodytes staring at you curiously. Their
hands are filled with all sorts of food.
The troglodytes snuck in here in an attempt

to eat anything they can find and stomach. If
treated poorly they attack. If asked politely to
leave they do, as long as they get to keep the
rotten food. If the players refuse, they attack.
Battle Tactics: 3 of them attack with their

claw/claw/bite combo, while the 4th
attempts to do a Str contest with a player
with the biggest metal melee weapon to
take it from him. If he succeeds, he fights
with it for the rest of the battle. Everyone
fights to the death. Dont forget their stench
ability.
That is the end of this tunnel. A successful
DC20 Intelligence (Investigation) check would
reveal that one of the rocks on the wall can
be removed to reveal a hole, inside of which
there is a pair of fine set of silverware worth
15 gp.
4. First Mining room

This used to be where they started mining the
metal out, but they have moved on since.
Upon entering the room, please read:
The rail continues downwards towards 2
directions, a West and a Northwest one.
Both are steadily declining. You can see a
couple of picks and hammers here but they
are for the most part corroded. There are 2
corroded wagons, one on each rail.
Inside each wagon there is a Rust monster (so

total 2), which attacks when characters
approach the wagon. Determine surprise if
you feel like your players were super non
careful with it.
Battle Tactics: They flat out ignore
players who dont have metal on them
and go after the people with the metal
weapons and armors. They should
mostly use their antennae. A Rust
Monster who manages to get 1 antennae
attack in proceeds with bite attacks.
Rust Monsters arent picky when it
comes to metal, but I would target
shields and armor over swords most of
the time.
Nothing of significance is in this room.
Players noticing the rails will see that the
rails going towards the West tunnel are
significantly rustier than the ones with the
Northwest direction.
5. Dead body
You witness upon a horrific sight; 2
large Carrion Crawlers feasting on a
corpse. The body has been eaten
beyond recognition. They dont seem
to have noticed you.
If your players havent seen Carrion

Crawlers before, take your time to show
pictures and/or describe them. (A Carrion
Crawlers biggest weapon is their
appearance). They are too busy feasting on
the poor humanoid so players have a
chance to surprise by passing a DC11
Dexterity (Stealth) group check. If they fail
it, the Carrion Crawlers notice them and
attack in a hungry rage.
Battle Tactics: Have them climb the
ceiling with spider walk and attack from
there. It has a reach of 10ft which means
it can melee the characters with its
tentacles while most characters cant
attack it with melee. If a character is
poisoned at the start of a Carrion
Crawlers turn, it climbs back down and
uses its tentacles attack on the others
while it bites the poisoned player.
The tunnel keeps going west downhill. The
dead guy is a thief who attempted to sneak
inside and snatch whatever valuable he
may find but he met his ultimate demise in
the face of the Carrion Crawlers. The boots
he is wearing Boots of Elvenkind.
--Northwest direction
6. Bat infested room

Other than a few corroded hammers here
and there, the room is empty. The tunnel
keeps going Northwest, but it stops going
downhill. After this room, the tunnel
seems to be splitting in 2 directions, one
stopping to a firmly shut door, while the
other one doesnt seem to have a door.
The rails continue towards the tunnel
without the door.
This rooms ceiling is swarming with bats. If
the characters attempt to look inside the
room, tell them they notice what appears to
be small animal feces on the ground. If they
look up they will see the swarm of bats
sleeping above them.
If they enter the room with a source of light,
the bats wake up and attack. The players
must succeed on a DC10 Dexterity
(Stealth) check to avoid waking the bats
up. If they do wake up, they attack. Instead
of starting a combat, use the swarm of bats
stat block to make a single attack roll for
each player, as the swarm wakes up and
flees out of the mine. No initiative is needed
since they flee immediately, they just bite
once on their way out.
The papers are about the mining

procedures used, but if a person carefully
goes through the papers and succeeds on a
DC15 Intelligence (Investigation) check,
he will find an envelope containing love
letters between Bhamir and the mayors
wife. Nothing else of significance is in this
room.
A Mimic
8. Mimic room
This is where the rail ends. You dont see
mining tools around here so this doesnt
appear like a main mining site. What you
do see is that at the back of the room there
are 2 showcases, inside of which there are
2 polished axes. This is the first time you
see a metal object not rusty in here since
the entrance.
Nothing of significance is in this room.
7. Bhamirs office.
The firmly shut door is locked. Unlocking it
would require a DC17 Dexterity check
with thieves tools. Upon entering, read:
This room appears to be used as an office.
A big wooden desk and 2 chairs are
standing in the middle of this room. The
desks surface is filled with poorly
organized papers. Otherwise the room is
empty.
The 2 showcases are 2 Mimics. They

understood that the Rust Monsters are
interested in metal looking objects so they
transformed themselves as iron axes to lure
them close. They attack as soon as the
characters touch them.
Battle tactics: Straight forward,
pseudopod to grapple with the adhesive
trait then use bite attacks. They fight to
the death.
The room has nothing of significance. The

dwarves started mining here but they
realized low potential so they abandoned
this site and moved to 12.
their queen. If they do, the inhabitants of

Room 11 (3 more rust monsters and a
Rust Monster Queen) come in on room
10 and attack at the start of the 7th turn.
--West Tunnel after room 4.
A successful DC 16 Intelligence
(Investigation) check while the players are
searching on the walls will reveal an
amethyst gem worth 30gp.
9. Rusty Bridge
The rails follow the tunnel into a
downwards slide that goes over a bridge.
There seems to be a 30ft wide 40ft deep
chasm and a bridge was built for the rails
to go over. The tunnel continues West and
downwards.
The bridge is made of metal, and has been
eaten by the Rust Monsters. The first
player who will attempt to pass through it
wil make the bridge collapse. Have him roll
a DC17 Dexterity Saving Throw to hang
on to the edge as the bridge crumbles to the
ground. Failure to do so means that the
character takes 4d6 bludgeoning damage
from the fall, landing prone. It should be a
fairly easy climb back up.
10.
Rust Monster Infection
The rails keep getting rustier and rustier

while entering this room. Lots of mining
tools are around the sturdy stone walls
of the room, among of which 4 Rust
Monsters are lurking.
The Rust Monsters attack upon sight.
11. Rust Monster Queen Room

If the monsters are still in this room and
were not alerted, please read:
There are 4 Rust Monsters in this room,
but one of them seems significantly larger
than the rest. It sits in the middle of the
room while the other 4 seem to be
bringing it pieces of metal. They dont
seem to have noticed you.
They can attempt to surprise with a
successful DC 15 Dexterity (Stealth)
check.
Battle Tactics: Same as before. If will try
to block the way towards their queen
and attack who poses as a threat to her.
Rust Monster Queen uses her breath
weapon towards the guy who doesnt
have metal armor, then attacks normally
out of instinct. Everyone fights to the
death.
If the monsters were alerted and the room
is empty and describe a floor covered with a
weird rusty brown slime.
12.
Egg Hatchery Room
Battle Tactics: They again ignore players

with non-metal gear and aim for the
armor/shields/weapons with their
antennae, then bite. 3 turns in, if any is
still alive, they start squeaking to alert
One large stalactite dominates the

area as you stumble upon the largest
room you have yet seen in this mine.
This is definitely the main mining site
as you can see the makeshift ladders
and tools left throughout the room.
Right now the room emits an off odor
as you see the floor filled with what
appears to be hundreds of rusty
brown eggs.
Conclusion.
The height of this room is at 20ft.
If the characters tell the dwarves that there

was a roper in the mine and they killed it,
have the dwarves check the corpse and
come back to tell them that it was just a
baby roper, the adults are much stronger
and meaner than that. Given that even so,
the encounter should have posed a serious
threat to the party, this will instill fear in
their hearts, and you can have a nice roper
sequel in your adventure later down the
road.
This is where the Rust Monsters lay their

eggs. There are hundreds of them and they
need to be destroyed. That is not the only
problem in this room however. The
stalactite is a Roper Infant (Roper from the
MM with an AC of 19 instead of 20, reduced
HP from 11d10 to 7d10, and nerfed to hit
bonus from +7 to +5). It attacks as soon as
someone gets close, or if they make too
much ruckus destroying the eggs.
With the dungeon clear of all forms of

monsters, the dwarf pays the characters
with relief. The dwarves hold a drunken
feast with lots of ale to celebrate the
reopening of the mine, with the characters,
of course, invited as guests of honor. If the
players left a monster inside the Mine have
a dwarf wander off into the mine, then hear
screams as they see him running for his life
with the monster after him.
Battle Tactics: It doesnt move and stays

to the ceiling. Its tentacles have a reach
of 50ft so they can get anyone in the
room, and it then reels and bites
grappled characters, holding them in the
air. It fights to the death.
A successful DC13 Wisdom (Medicine)
check would reveal that a Ropers digestive
juices are valuable amongst alchemists,
who use it as a solvent. Ropers can digest
anything except for gemstones, platinum,
and magic items, so if they open up his
insides they will find a diamond worth
100gp. Alternatively, roll an uncommon
magic item.
