Adventurers tasked with stopping the curse must travel to settlements such as Port Nyanzaru to secure guides to lead them into the dense jungle. At the end of the journey, a horrifying villain awaits with a familiar visage. Tomb of Annihilation is a Fifth Edition Dungeons & Dragons adventure for character levels 1-11.
