When the Stars Cried Despair is a starter adventure at the end of the world. Your 1st-level D&D 5e characters face no less than the apocalypse in this first chapter of Descent of the Ancient Fane, the megadungeon tie-in with Goodman Games' Castle Whiterock.

More than just global destruction is at stake, as When the Stars Cried Despair introduces new mechanics to create Bonds between PCs and establish their Business in the adventure, motivations that change the outcome of rolls and alter the story's plot. This unique approach to a 1st level adventure makes When the Stars Cried Despair ideal to kick off a campaign whether Castle Whiterock or Descent of the Ancient Fane, or a homebrew of your own.
