All the world’s a stage. Unfortunately, someone in the cast is dead.
Macdeath is a murder mystery one-shot for Dungeons & Dragons 5e, set amid the magic and intrigue of the Feywild.
Your party has been called upon to perform a play for the enigmatic Queen of the Summer Court. Winning her favor would be complicated enough—but when a member of the cast is murdered, the evening takes a decidedly different turn.
Now your players must balance performance and investigation, navigating a colorful cast of NPCs, following clues, and uncovering the truth while the show, quite literally, goes on.
What’s Inside
24-page physical adventure with everything needed to run the one-shot.
An interactive play for your players to perform as part of the adventure itself.
A cast of Feywild NPCs to populate the performance and its unfolding mystery.
Two new magical items to discover along the way.
Guidance for running the murder mystery helps the GM manage the clues, characters, and investigation at the table.
Why We Love It
The players actually have to put on the play. Performance isn't merely the backdrop for the mystery—it's part of what the party is doing while trying to solve it.
Murder mystery meets Feywild etiquette. Investigating a crime is one thing. Investigating it while attempting to remain in the good graces of the Queen of the Summer Court is quite another.
It gives roleplayers plenty to work with. Acting, investigation, strange NPCs, courtly intrigue, and the inevitable improvisation when someone's carefully constructed performance goes sideways.
It's built for one memorable session. Drop it into an existing 5e campaign or gather a party specifically for an evening of murder, magic, and questionable acting choices.
