Earth and Wine
A downloadable dungeon level
Berthold von Butterheim is dead. While his manor was claimed by distant relatives, his expensive wine collection was never found.
Once situated somewhere underneath the Vinegar District, the Wine Cellar of Berthold von Butterheim has slowly sunken down into the underworld. Nestled between two layers of the megadungeon it represents a possible shortcut between one dungeon level and another.
Earth and Wine is a dungeon level compatible with His Majesty The Worm.
19 Rooms full of wine and weirdness. It can be easily placed somewhere in your megadungeon. A second exit allows it to be used as a shortcut to an even deeper dungeon level.

I'm pretty excited that I just randomly found this, I love a short and sweet adventure that can easily be dropped into a campaign. The descriptions are all super usable, straight to the point, and the artwork is just the right amount creepy and charming.
Have you considered making a version for a more typical retro-clone/D&D adjacent system like Old-School Essentials?
Unfortunately, I'm totally ignorant to His Majesty the Worm, so it'll take some guess work on my part to come up with stats based on those symbols in the monster sections.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am really glad you like my dungeon.
There are currently no plans, but it might be nice to include some Cairn or B/X statblocks if I ever decide to release it for print.
To take away the guesswork, the stats are Strenght (Swords), Dexterity (Pentacles), Intelligence (Cups) and Wisdom/Magic (Wands).
This adventure is very cool. I don't own or play His Majesty the Worm (yet) but should be easy enough to convert to another system. I really enjoy the vibe and aesthetics. The artwork is top notch. Some clever ideas in here. Very cool how the adventure is designed to slot into an existing campaign. Great work! Any plans for a print version?
Thank you so much for your kind words. There are currently no concrete plans for a print version, but I do not rule it out in the future
đź‘Ť I'll be buyer #1.
Gonna put it right in the empty spot in the megadungeon and hope it'll entice players enough so that they don't see the unfinished dungeons!!! It looks awesome though
Empty spot in the dungeon is exactly where Earth and Wine belongs :P
Hope your players have fun with it!
This is one of the best dungeons I’ve read in 2024. It is jam packed with cool ideas–weird, memorable, gettable–perfectly executed. The art and layout are top notch. I would love to buy a physical copy of this dungeon at some point.
If I ever publish a print version of Earth and Wine this comment should go on its back ❤️
I would have never thought to put a highlighted minimal in the corner of my dungeon, it's such a cool idea! The polish and presentation of this dungeon is really inspiring. I've got to figure out where to put it in my mega-dungeon.
Thank you, really appreciate the kind words.
The minimap idea was floating around in my head for a while now. Especially in bigger dungeons it should come in handy if flipping through a printed version.
Fantastic art -- and the concept is super clever. A great dungeon level. Wine and weirdness for the win!
Thank you so much. Appreciate it. 🍷
Love this, wine and HMTW go well together
thank you! I totally agree. And with the random wine tables you got some material to put some bottles of wine in every corner of the megadungeon :)
Great dungeon! Excited to run this.
Thank you so much. If you run it, please let me know how it went :)
