Rescue the mayor's daughter and avenge the slaughtered animals of Westbridge while trying not to bob your head to the dreaded jingle of Billy's Bellboots. 

You arrive in the tiny village of Westbridge to find it in chaos. Last night, small, red-capped men with sharp claws and teeth spilled out of the caves beneath old Westbridge Castle. They rushed into the village, tore into the paddocks and coops, and stole the village's livestock. They were led by a particular redcap, notable for the mancatcher he wielded and the jingling boots he wore; he slew two men who tried to stop him, all the while singing a merry tune.

The villagers are in a state of shock. They blame themselves for neglecting the shrine within the caves. They weep that Saint Gil, long the patron saint of the town, has forsaken them. To make matters worse, the following morning, the mayor's daughter grabbed an old sword and shield and charged off to the caves. She hasn't been seen all day, and everyone is worried. They can see you are heroes, and the mayor, Margaret, pleads with you to go to Westbridge Caves and solve this problem that they are so clearly not equipped to fight.

⏱️ Playtime: The Bloody Bellboots Boogie is intended to take around 4 hours, but includes enough content for multiple sessions if your players are explorer types.

🎯 Target Audience: This adventure is designed for everyone! Written with adults in mind, but would make a perfect adventure for youngsters as well.
