Tabletop roleplayers have been making homebrew content since the earliest days of the hobby. Dungeon Masters are welcome to make use of any part of this material that they wish. The sword of Co-Vidh is a horror adventure which begins in an urban center and utilizes the 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons rules. For readers not familiar with the game, there’s a detailed walk through of how the rules work here if you’re curious enough for a long read, but you certainly don’t need to know them at all to get the gist of the story and themes below.
