Belly of the Beast

This small dungeon adventure begins with the characters captured, blindfolded, and bound in an underground complex inhabited by a fearsome beast. They start without equipment and must search 77 rooms for supplies hidden by a secret ally while finding ways to improvise weapons, cooperate, and escape. Designed for beginning adventurers, the location provides an unusual introduction to a group and their first shared challenges. It uses the Portal to Adventure rules and requires minimal conversion for 1970s- and 1980s-style fantasy RPG systems; later editions may require more extensive adaptation.
