A wholesome, witty D&D 5E one-shot for fathers and their adventuring companions. Ready to run. No prep required. The old guild tower will be auctioned tomorrow at sundown. Inside the vault below it, a medallion waits - sealed by a Guildmaster long dead, meant for the bloodline that would one day return for it. Today, Dad has come back to the tower with his adventuring companions, the children of his line, to retrieve what was always meant for them and to finish the words his father set in motion a generation ago. But the wards are slipping. The seal below is failing. And the Guardian his father bound to the vault doesn't know yet that the family has come home. The Adventure
A complete D&D 5E one-shot for levels 2-3. Runs 2-3 hours. Zero prep required. The party moves through four acts - the abandoned gate yard at the foot of the tower, the Hall of Heroes on the ground floor, the inner guild chambers above, and the sealed vault beneath the bedrock. Combat in every act. An optional side quest in Act Three. A climactic Guardian encounter that scales by how the family unfolds the day. What's Inside
Dad can run as a DM-controlled NPC - one level above the kids, advantage on every roll, the legend at the table. Or Dad can be played by a real father at the table as a fifth player, with a complete pre-built Battle Master Fighter sheet and his own pool of advantage tokens to spend strategically. Both modes are fully supported. Decide before play. Perfect For
- Real fathers who want to share a session with their kid(s) at the table
- Father's Day gifts for the dad who plays D&D - or the family that wants to start
- Small groups of 2-3 players who want a meaningful one-shot
- Multigenerational gaming sessions, however the table defines family
- DMs running pickup games at conventions, family game days, or local nights
- Anyone who wants a wholesome adventure with optional emotional depth and entirely skippable conversation moments This is a wholesome adventure. Light, witty, earned. Not heavy, not dark, not played for tears - but the quiet emotional beats are there for tables that want them, and entirely skippable for tables that don't. The medallion belongs to the family at the end no matter how the day plays out. Ready to run. No prep required. The day is short, and the errand is finished by sundown - and it's a good day at the table.
- 6 battle maps - journey overview, gate yard, Hall of Heroes, inner chambers, side hallway, and sealed vault
- 4 ready-made level 2 characters - Fighter, Rogue, Cleric, Wizard. Pick any 2-3 to play
- Custom stat blocks for The Guardian, the Master's Chair Mimic, the Lesser Mimic, the Animated Practice Dummy, plus Dad in two complete play modes
- 16 conversation prompt cards - the kids ask Dad about his father and his family. Every prompt is optional. Every fragment of the dismissal phrase can be discovered through skill checks instead
- An optional side quest - the grandfather's old quarters, two rust monsters in a corridor, and a hidden coin reward for Dad
- 5 alternative opening hooks, 5 what if variants, and 5 sequel hooks - for tables that want a different beginning, an alternate framing, or campaign continuation
- Scaling for 2 vs 3 player parties, plus a combat escalation when Dad is played by a real father
