The Pirate Queen's Wrath: A 5e Adventure
A century ago, the pirate captain known as Dathrian Vailshroud, often called the “Queen of the Sea” terrorized the Amber Bay with her crew. Any ship that crossed their path was completely destroyed, no matter if it was a civilian vessel or naval ship. Rumors circulated that the crew had traded their undying loyalty to Xilauth,the magnate of dominion and wrath, in exchange for blessings in battle and triumph. Eventually, a trap was set, and the Queens of the Sea was no more. As retribution for their failure, they are unable to rest in death, and are forced to awaken for one year every decade.Only once Xilauth feels they have made amends.
This adventure is designed for a party of 2-5 players that are levels 1-3. While that are references to locations and gods (called magnates), the adventure can pretty seamlessly be dropped into an existing adventure with some simple name changes. All ability checks reference the base stat along with a target value instead of a specific skill to allow further flexibility during play.

About
Voltaic Overdrive
Voltaic Overdrive is a project of mine started in 2025 to provide game masters of any system with resources to help streamline the creation of their own worlds and games no matter what TTRPG they run at their table.
Here you can find a collection of dungeon layouts, adventure locations, random encounters, or misc. tables to ease the burden of running a tabletop game. Most items here can simply be dropped into any system. The aim is to be setting agnostic to a degree. Resources will primarily be in fantasy of science-fiction settings, but are meant to be adapted and malleable as needed. Any content that is geared directly for a system will be listed and tagged as such.
I hope the resources I provide here can be helpful to those reading. Please leave me a message or comment if you end up using any of these resources, as all feedback is welcome and will help me improve the content here over time.
