Welcome! Wand’rer, to “Folger Foe-lios: A Night at The Library.” Join the Folger Institute at Labyrinth Games & Puzzles for this One Shot 5E adventure, set in a fantastical realization of the Folger Shakespeare Library. Meet characters both familiar and strange! You’ll encounter the witches of Macbeth around their cauldron, a mopey Hamlet, larger than life fairies, and, of course, the infamous Puck…

This is a beginner One Shot 5E session, which means it will be a low level session but players should have a basic knowledge of D&D adventures.

Learn more about the “Folger Foe-lios” series of introductory 5E Adventures and download a free PDF of this adventure.
