Introduction Here is my conversion of the classic D&D adventure, Against the Cult of the Reptile God(AtCotRG). A copy of the module is needed to use this conversion (It can be purchased at DriveThruRPG if you don't already have a one). This is the first in a list of conversions I'm doing for my classic Greyhawk Sheldomar Valley campaign. Next up will be the Scourge of the Slave Lords (SotSL) followed by the Queen of Spiders (QoS). I'm still working on some kind of justifying narrative to link the campaigns; perhaps Lolth or the Elder Elemental Eye is behind Explictica Defilus's machinations The conversion has been written with the assumption that the milestone experience will be used. The following milestones are suggested.

•

Advance to 2nd level after the party confronts the cult for the first time or clears the Golden Grain Inn.

•

Advance to 3rd level after the party clears the temple of Merrika.

•

Advance to 4th level after the party kills Explictica Defilus.

Of course, a lot can go wrong in this adventure so it's best to be flexible with the advancement schedule. I've chosen 4th level as an end point since that's where I want the SotSL to begin, you can change things up to fit the level pacing you want for your campaign. For the most part, I've tried to stay true to the original intent of each encounter. However, I have made several changes to remove gender stereotypes or just because I felt like it. Many of the encounters were fine as is or just needed small adjustments in terms of the number of creatures. In terms of loot balance, there are no magic weapons nor is there any magic armor in the adventure. Treasure rewards have been regenerated using the rules from the DMG. I've also converted the original pre-rolled characters from the adventure. I'm posting this this in the dndnext subreddit. If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions you can reach me there (smulroon)

Cult activity as time passes Kidnapping party members Against 2 party members or less (Misha Devi, Derek Desleigh, 5 cultists) More than 2 party members (Abramo, Misha Devi, Derek Desleigh, 5 cultists, 3 troglodytes) Non-lethal combat: Knock-out at 0 (automatically stable) Converter's note: Unless the party (who are possibly still 1st level at this point in the adventure) has an excellent ambush plan waiting for the cultists the kidnapping is very likely to succeed.

Kidnapping NPCs Cult kidnappers (Abramo, Misha Devi, Derek Desleigh, 5 cultists, 3 troglodytes) Converter's note: The party can watch the town for signs of abduction. Misha Devi's stealth (at -1 with disadvantage due to armor) gives the party an edge in the stake out as long as they watch the right parts of Orlane.

Being asked to leave town Constable Ruskadal attempts to intimidate the party to leave town (Grover Ruskadal, Donavan Allard, Hulbar Onfre)

Explictica will rejuvenate in d6 days after being killed, since the party is unlikely to have access to a wish spell to end her once and for all, but her power over Orlane and her citizens will be broken.
