32 hours to go

The campaign is in the last two days. Please share this with your friends. The modules have been written and are now in the hands of the editor. 

Next Steps

Once we fund, the layout of the book will begin and we should see a prototype book in about six weeks. Updates will be posted here are the project hits mile stones along the way.

Thank you for your support.

 Greetings

This effort has taken a year & a half. While the last project  looked to the past, this one looks both in the moment & back. It's  not easy to do, but I've respected artists from early TSR days, plus a  cover artist who is absolutely in the now. 

1. Return to The Forgotten Dungeon 

 I felt it needed to be written.  I'm proud of it. Diesel added a level  with a bar, dancing, music, an area for plays, & dining. It's an  unusual add to a dungeon, but makes sense in context. He added a torture  chamber with jail as a second new area. Finally, he added a wizard's  tower. I've always liked wizard's towers. The module has an undercurrent  that climaxes at the end, surprising even myself as I was writing it.  My Forgotten Dungeon series of modules make me smile.

2. The Pyramid of Doom!

 From the beginning,  I knew I'd be writing The Pyramid of Doom.  When I  finally got to it, I was happy to play with it. I hinted at some OA  (Oriental Adventures), back in the first gaming module.  Diesel helped  me with this, creating a level of the dungeon that looks like a throwing  star.  The module pays homage, without being an actual OA adventure.   There are monks, some hints in clothing, weapons, design, & traps.  It adds interest, without distracting. This is a solid adventure. 

3. Lair of an Evil God 

 Well, this is a dark universe version of Pyramid that is dramatically  different, scary, like horror meshing with fantasy.  It's dark &  super hard. Yet, there is a lot to this adventure, including a final  underground cavern level that is somehow the scariest of them all, an  actual lair of an evil deity.  This level is like a dungeon onto itself  and is exclusive to Lair.

The setting. 

All of these  adventures are set in The Geneva Cavern. The Pyramid of Doom & Lair  of an Evil God both require going through this area to get to the  Pyramid.  There are many dangers here, even dinosaurs. 

Darlene,  by the way, creator of the famous Greyhawk maps from TSR's boxed set,  made a map for the cavern.  You know what's especially unique about  that?  Well, I suggested she make a map the way, with all her  experiences,  she would make the original Greyhawk maps, if she was  making them for the first time, now.  She said I was the first person to  ever free her from the yoke of the original maps. I love what she  created. The map is beautiful and looks back, but with hindsight, if you  will.
