The village needs lumber to survive. The forest spirits need their sacred groves protected. Both have attacked each other. Both have suffered. Your players must choose whose survival matters more.

A Ukrainian Folklore One-Shot | Level 4 | 3-4 Hours

You were hired to stop the "monsters" attacking Dubova village. But in the ancient Silver Forest, you'll discover the other side of the story—and realize there is no villain here. Just two sides fighting for survival.

This adventure has no "correct" solution. Your players decide: negotiate peace, side with the village, or side with the forest. All three paths are fully supported with unique endings and real consequences.

What Makes This Different

Authentic Ukrainian mythology - Features Lisovyk, Mavka, and spirits from actual folklore, presented with cultural respect

True moral complexity - Both sides are sympathetic. Neither is evil. Your table will debate this for hours.

Player choices matter - Three distinct endings (peaceful, violent against forest, violent against village) are equally viable and fully developed

Multiple solutions - Every encounter can be resolved through combat, diplomacy, or creativity

Rich NPCs - Desperate villagers, dying forest spirits, conflicted guards—everyone has depth and motivation
