Revision as of 15:42, 8 September 2008

I wont write much about this, because its the campaign Id run again if we ever want to do a fantasy game. user:maiasdaddy played in the preliminary portions of this, and user:BenofZongo was in one session. Its a great campaign.

Original Characters

Glynt Scrufflebeard
Azarel, 'the fairy elf'
Jakk of Smyth
Aramil, 'puddles', or 'waterboy'

Reboot

Its a warm spring day in the town of Nuln. It is finally time for Heinrich Klemperbad to train his apprentice in the art of wizardry. There is just one catch: to learn these spells insert player name here needs to return with the physical components necessary for casting them. An old friend of Heinrich's family, insert dwarfs name here, is willing to help, and a few gold crowns can probably scrape up another willing companion or two.

What are the physical components? Why the head and upper torso of a giant, humanoid creature of course; no less than 10 feet tall.

Ideas and Themes

This campaign is conceived with a literary bent. There will be flashbacks, moral dilemmas, tragedy, difficult choices and the opportunity to right age old wrongs. Players will need to be flexible with what their characters do and want. Hopefully everyone will have a chance to grow.

Even though this game was played 1.5 times before, both versions were very different and it is not required that the new iteration match up with either. In fact, the players may throw out the quest opportunity when it presents itself and do something else.
