The Chalice of False Salvation — D&D 5e Adventure for Levels 3–5

The Chalice of False Salvation

Religious horror hides behind a miracle.

In the cathedral city of Sanctum Luminar, a holy relic has begun performing genuine miracles. The blind see. The crippled walk. The desperate flock from across the realm.

But each miracle has a cost. Every healed pilgrim becomes a little more compliant, a little more perfect, a little less themselves. The Chalice doesn’t heal — it replaces. And the church’s leadership knows.
