D&D One-Shot: The Treasure of Dead Man’s Cove

2024 D&D 5th Edition | Level 5 | Pirate Adventure | 3 Tables
Every sailor knows the story of Dead Man’s Cove.
Decades ago, the infamous pirate captain Silas Blackwake vanished with a fortune stolen from kings, merchants, and rival pirates. His ship was eventually discovered wrecked against a remote island—but Blackwake, his crew, and his treasure were never found.
Until now.
A battered piece of Blackwake’s map has surfaced, revealing the hidden entrance to the legendary cove.
There is just one problem.
You aren't the only ones who found it.
The party joins an expedition to the forgotten island and quickly finds themselves racing against a ruthless rival crew searching for the same treasure.
To reach Blackwake’s fortune, the adventurers must cross a ship graveyard, explore hidden sea caves, solve the dead captain’s puzzles, survive ancient traps, and uncover what really happened to the pirates who disappeared there.
Because Blackwake didn’t simply bury his treasure.
He buried something with it.
And after decades beneath the island, it is beginning to wake up.
