D&D 5E – Chains of Asmodeus


Chains of Asmodeus

I have said here that I will not be buying any Wizard’s of the Coast products this year. This is an exception. The proceeds go to the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals© and not to WotC or Hasbro.

This is only available (for now) as a $30.00 PDF on Dungeon Masters Guild. It is not being advertised, or even mentioned, by Wizards of the Coast. I can only assume that this is because they are not making any money from it. However, it is excellent!

Chains of Asmodeus is a massive release. It is a 268 page source book and high level adventure through the Nine Hells. WotC hasn’t published many adventures for high level parties, but this adventure takes your character’s from 11th through 20th level.

As per it’s page on Dungeon Masters Guild, the book contains:

  • 50+ High Challenge Monsters
  • Stat Blocks for Asmodeus, Lord of the Nine, and all major Archdevils
  • 20+ Infernal Magic Items
  • New Item Corruption Mechanic
  • Details on all Layers of the Nine Hells, with Beautifully Illustrated Maps created by John Stevenson
  • A Fiendish Adventure for Levels 11-20

Thanks to Nerd Immersion‘s YouTube review for turning me onto this.

And, for those of you that are interested in even more background information; back in 1984 Ed Greenwood wrote some excellent articles on the Nine Hells which were printed in issues #75, #76 and #91 of DRAGON Magazine.

    I also bought this and it’s definitely on my Top3… I find it puzzling how this wasn’t an actual published book, it’s the perfect sequel to Descent into Avernus.
