Thanks for your interest in my RPG game designs!
Scroll down to access free RPG maps and fully-scaled monsters from level 1 to level 20. You are welcome to use and distribute these in any non-commercial manner so long as the author information remains intact.
The free maps and free adversaries provide the framework for you to write your own adventure. The adversaries can be easily scaled from level 1 thru level 20. Their hit points and damage values work within the D&D 5E (TM) universe.
If you prefer a complete storyline written specifically for the free maps, you can purchase the PDFs starting at $1.89. Full-color paperbacks are also available as well as Kindle editions for some of the adventures.
To be a great Dungeon Master means you need to be a great storyteller, and there's an art to it. An unfolding story is mechanical in nature; the best stories follow a measurable pattern with their deliverance of storyline information. It's no different than a math calculation. Many moons ago I studied the most successful films over a couple year span and cracked the code on captivating an audience. If you are serious about storytelling (whether you're a DM or you write fiction or even if you're a public speaker), I recommend the following books: The Seven Moments in Storytelling and The Seven Moments in Screenwriting. Writing a movie script may not seem like it relates to being a DM, but it absolutely does. They're both forms of storytelling, and if you want to be the best DM that you can be then you must learn how to organize and deliver storyline information.
