Moving things around a bit.

One Thing: The Tower of Nicanor

"The Tower of Nicanor: The King of Lambs" by Francisco Javier Barrera

One thing I love about this OPD is that it serves to ignite the imagination. Listen, I get that this is pretty spartan as far as one page dungeons go. This is often the case with submissions that lean heavily on an illustration or isometric cartography. Barrera did a great job suggesting a lot with the illustration of the tower and the use of simple labels. This was a very popular submission for a reason.

Mini Boss: Winged Lizard

You might expect the Winged Lizard to have a bunch of health points and a high target number, but really it is a trap. A trap with a 50/50 chance for survival.

One Thing: Church of the Wicked Generation

"Church of the Wicked Generation" by Eric Potter

One thing I love about this OPD is it is all about "shades of gray". The "evil cleric" and his child minions looted and pillaged a countryside already ravaged by a plague. The surrounding hamlets retaliated by boarding up the church and burning everyone inside alive hoping to loot the treasury once the embers cooled. The player characters enter the ruins of the church presumably looking to discover and loot the lost treasury for themselves. Despite all the moral ambiguity surrounding the set up, the main villain proves to be quite the bastard, and any party could feel good about putting him to the sword, or the axe, or the lightning bolt spell...
