Encounter - Into The Wyvern's Nest (Patreon)

A wyvern has stolen a child and retreated to its mountain lair! Will your players climb a dangerous cliff and battle the monster?

This is a small travel encounter for players around Level 5 or 6, though the challenge could be scaled up for a party of Level 8 or 9 adventurers, by including a second wyvern.

As always, maps are attached to this post.

NOTE: You may notice that this encounter is slightly shorter than some previous travel encounters, and has some structural changes in how the information is laid out. I really want to make sure I get a travel encounter out every Monday, and to make that possible, I'm trying to streamline how I present these encounters, to make the workload more manageable for myself. My intention is to provide the same amount of useful content for your games, but with a more concise presentation style. I hope that makes sense, and I'm very excited about the return of weekly encounters!
