DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Announces Heist Anthology Book KEYS FROM THE GOLDEN VAULT

Dungeons & Dragons has gone through a lot lately, but their latest bit of news is about a new book. Keys from the Golden Vault is a new anthology book of thirteen adventures that are all designed to be capers and heists. This is perfect for people who want to pull an Ocean’s 11 or Mission: Impossible type adventure in their own campaigns. The 13 adventures in Keys from the Golden Vault are designed so that you can either input whichever ones you like into a pre-existing campaign or you can connect them all into a campaign full of heists to prove your crew are the best around.

The Golden Vault is rumored to be associated with metallic dragons and based on one of the good-aligned Outer Planes. Its operatives help the downtrodden and innocent when the law can’t. The organization’s motto is: “Do good, no matter the cost.”

Talking about the book, senior game designer at D&D and co-lead designer Amanda Hamon shared:

A secret organization called the Golden Vault sends mission briefings to its operatives—the adventurers!—in the form of magical, golden keys that are inserted into what looks like a mundane music box. Instead of a pretty tune, though, the music box then provides a recording with all the information needed for the adventurers to hunt a particular item of interest. It’s up to the adventurers to do the reconnaissance necessary to circumvent any defenses and pull off a legendary heist. Teamwork is paramount, because as so often happens in these capers, something will go wrong, and creative thinking could save the day!

Co-lead Chris Perkins added:

Each adventure includes two full-page maps: one that players can use to plan their heist, and another the Dungeon Master uses to run the adventure. The players’ map, however, is often unreliable or incomplete.

You can pre-order your own copy of Keys from the Golden Vault now from your local game store or the official D&D website. The latter offers a digital/physical bundle that gives you early access to the digital version on D&D Beyond starting February 7. The book will be launching on February 21 in North America and March 24 in the UK/EMEA. The main cover art is by Anna Podedworna while an alternate cover will feature art by Simen Meyer and be available exclusively through your local game stores.
