About this expansion

Four Against the Abyss: A Supplement for Four Against Darkness is a solo expansion for one player, designed for 75-minute sessions and characters from levels 5 to 9.

When standard dungeons no longer challenge your experienced heroes, this supplement takes the adventure deeper. Once all your characters reach 5th level, you can step into a tougher tier of play, seeking greater rewards and facing more dangerous threats.

The expansion updates core elements of the game for advanced adventurers. Combat and saves use a d8, while new monster reactions and more powerful monsters raise the stakes in the dungeon.

  • Expert skills for characters to learn
  • New spells for wizards and elves
  • Rules for madness, disease, vampirism, and lycanthropy
  • Details for hirelings and professionals your party can hire
  • Campaign plots for longer-running adventures
  • Updated charts covering monsters, encounters, special events, and treasure

These additions give established parties new ways to develop and new dangers to overcome. The updated charts support continued dungeon exploration with fresh encounters, events, enemies, and rewards suited to the higher-level game.

Released in 2017, Four Against the Abyss is aimed at players ready to move beyond the standard dungeon experience. Bring your party into the Abyss and discover the challenges awaiting experienced adventurers.
