Pathfinder Module: The Dragon's Demand
Dragonslayers Wanted!
Founded by a famous dragonslayer, the small town of Belhaim has become a sleepy rural community just off the beaten path, a settlement where everyone knows everyone and strangers are the talk of the town. But when Belhaim's peace and quiet is shattered by the sudden collapse of the last standing tower of its founder's castle, things quickly bloom out of control. Why were there bodies of kobolds amid the rubble? What's the sinister secret behind the strange sounds of flapping wings in the night? And what's happened to local wizard Balthus Hunclay, who's not answering knocks on his door? The collapsed tower had long been an eyesore to the cantankerous old man—could he have had something to do with its destruction? And what of the rumors of strange stirrings in nearby Dragonfen? Has Belhaim's ancient draconic nemesis returned?
The Dragon's Demand is a deluxe super-adventure for 1st-level characters, and includes 64 action-packed pages of adventure and new monsters, plus a beautiful double-sided, full-color poster map of the town of Belhaim and an important miniatures-scale battleground! Players can expect to reach 7th level by the time they complete this epic adventure—if they manage to survive the wrath of a dragon when his demands aren't met!

For the past eight days I have soloed my way through the Pathfinder adventure The Dragon's Demand. I did convert it to 5th Edition and I also used The Solo Adventurer's Toolbox along with it. This exciting/dangerous adventure is designed for a dungeon master and several players with first level characters. I used four characters with an average level of 2.75. This adventure has 24 quests! I did not find them all. Some of them I did not want to do (they sounded too dangerous). I got to page 42 of 68. When I heard about the Undead Noble, my characters had had enough. I did find some good loot. The room descriptions were awesome. Good luck!

The first Pathfinder module I ever ran, I've used it multiple times simply because it was there. I enjoy this module and it helped me learn the nuances of the system's difference between D&D 3.5 and P1e.

Picked this up my first module to run as a DM. Everything was well laid out and easy to follow. The pacing was good and even allowed for some additional encounters to be added in. The map of the town was nicely detailed. I recommend this for any group, but it is a superb intro to the pathfinder world for both DMs a players, covering a large variety of creatures, terrain, and experiences.

This was a fun campaign to run and left many threads to continue new campaigns. I bought this at a game store on free RPG day, so I am glad that I finally got around to using it.
