→Return of the Lizard King is an adventure designed for characters of levels 1-4. If the characters begin this adventure as brand new first-level characters, there is enough content to complete the adventure as the characters reach level 5, ready to face the dangers presented in Chapter 3: Dwellers of the Forbidden City in Tomb of Annihilation.

→CHAPTER II: RETURN OF THE LIZARD KING

→Due to their strict code of honor, none of the Kambahal attackers willingly provide any information to the party as to why they have attacked the village.
==================================

→Treasure. The archer carries no treasure. The veteran carries an emerald signet ring worth 40 gp. The ring is engraved with a symbol resembling a scaled claw.

→Read the following as the party approaches.

→A Dungeon Master's Guild Adepts Adventure for use with Tomb of Annihilation

→Magic is a part of life in Chult, however, its practice was closely regulated. A select group of spellcasters called Mage Hunters were tasked with stopping the practices of unsanctioned magic.

→The existence of this magical essence was known to many within the College of Wizards, but not much else. Its nature has been a closely guarded secret to a select few within Chult's oldest tribal clans.

→The wood of the great willow can be used to create certain magical weapons that attune to the wielder, allowing the weapon to grow in power as the wielder gains expertise (i.e. gains levels). More about tree spirit weapons can be found in the supplement Return of the Lizard King on the DM’s Guild.

→If the adventurers parley with the wilden, they learn that the creatures protect their ancestor willow and tend the grove. Recently, they have been under attack by hostile creatures. If the adventurers go out and remove the threat (DM’s choice), the wilden agree to provide what the adventurers seek.

→• Willow wilden hiding within the branches of the great willow have a Dexterity (Stealth) check of at least 20.

→• All wilden within the branches of the great willow sense when creatures enter the Weeping Grove.

→• On initiative count 20, the branches of the willow reach out and attack one hostile creature, which must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or be restrained. A restrained creature can take an action to attempt a DC 10 Strength check to break free.

→While fighting takes place among the branches of the willow, the following effects are in play:

→Great Willow Lair Effects/Actions

→The wilden attack the characters without warning—not because they are evil—but because they have been under assault by forces of evil in the area. After two rounds of combat, or sooner if the characters think to surrender or cease hostilities—the wilden instruct the characters to leave the grove or die. This hopefully triggers some diplomacy between the two sides.

→Assisting Salixa at the moment are four willow wilden watchers and a pair of trained giant spitting lizards. They are all hidden within the branches of the great willow, observing the characters’ approach from within the low-hanging curtain of branches. The wilden and their lizard pets are automatically aware of any creatures that enter the clearing, but it takes a DC 20 Wisdom (Perception) check to see the hidden wilden (see “Great Willow Lair Effects/Actions”).

→The guardians of the Weeping Grove are led by a willow wilden sentinel called Salixa. She protects the great willow here, which she and the other guardians consider their ancestor. They accept no strangers in the grove, unless those strangers can prove themselves no threat to the willow.

→The characters chase others or get chased through the jungles of Chult. This encounter uses the chase rules found in “Chases” in chapter 8, “Running the Game,” of the Dungeon Master’s Guide. Use the Chult Jungle Chase Complications table.
