The following blog post is Part 13 of the Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition campaign, Dreadstorms Lost. These blogs are intended for other game masters who might want to use this campaign setting and the scenarios to inspire their own role playing games. (Free for noncommercial reuse.)

Notes:

The quantity, quality, and frequency of loot varies dramatically from game master to game master in any role playing game. I tend to be overly generous with my loot. It also means that the encounters that my players face will be that much deadlier to balance out the magic items they find. 

I’ll sprinkle in random, non-magical items in with the other found items just for the fun of it. For instance, when going through an abandoned farmhouse, they might find a cast-iron pot, a wooden spoon, and a bottle of wine.  I’m always tickled when my players find clever uses for these items months later that take me totally by surprise.
