First Post
Recently I deeply upset one of my players (poor guy ran afoul of a symbol of death trap) so to appease his tastes I'm doing the Zelda thing. My basic idea is this:
Gannon (Nalfashnee) will be an extra-dimensional deity directing and aiding Gannondorf (half-fiend dire boar rogue/sorcerer), his illegitimate material plane son, who has gathered Boris (my PC), Tourniquette (rogue of the other party) and Zelda in order to enact the ritual necessary to materialize the Triforce of Power. First they'll be going through The Steel Tower and Ikana, fighting Twinmold at the end of the dungeon before being let out onto Gerudo desert - home of Gannondorf and his band of thieves. To complete preparations for Game 1 I need to come up with a full dungeon.
This is where I need the Zelda players - I only ever beat Ocarina of Time and maybe 80% of some of the other games, a loooong time ago. If you can think of some good traps and puzzles from the series that would translate acceptably into D&D, let me know.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's been a quiet spell in the keep and the days are filled with training, leisure and drinking as things have been relatively calm in the region. A few serfs approach the castle requesting assistance and in due order Knight Watch deals with the occasional pack of wolves, rogue bandits and dangerous animals. It seems as if someone, somewhere, decided that everyone deserved a rest.
It's been a few weeks now since Boris left on his trip to gather worshippers. Poonjob and Lenny have begun to gripe about his absence here and there, and then can't be found themselves for a few days. The party is sitting down for dinner and the goblin is unusually somber, bringing up that he and the ranger Lenny could not find their draconic sorcerer friend, but he was at one point in Steel Tower, in Ikana.
If the party still doesn't go looking in Ikana for Boris, they will be approached by Gestalt, Ternik and Gurnak the next day at the keep, as Gestalt has deduced that the disappearance of a princess, Tourniquette and Boris all coincide and that the Shining Stone is interested in creating a temporary partnership with Knight Watch in order to solve this problem. Otherwise have the party meet each other in Tora-tah-tah's Tavern in the small city at the base of the Stone Tower.
Ikana is a kingdom found in the western regions. It has gone through years and years of bloody wars, under the leadership of king, Igos du Ikana of the Ikana Royal Family. Eventually, the kingdom was all but abandoned and destroyed, and became a wasteland. Ikana functions under a monarchy. The king rules from the Ancient Castle of Ikana, situated at the top of Ikana Canyon at the base of the Stone Tower. Prior to the downfall of Ikana, the area was once a grand kingdom in the midst of a bloody war with the Garo. Little is factually known about the wars other than Captain Keeta (Knowledge: Local/History DC 22 now transformed into a massive Stalchild after the Stone Tower's Temple Doors were opened) was the general of the Ikana army and that the Garo would often spy on the kingdom of Ikana from the nearby mountains. Going through the region is a river which eventually becomes a waterfall draining into the Southern Swamp.There is barely any vegetation in Ikana, only some areas of crabgrass and an occasional tree. A massive desert is accessible through the Stone Tower Temple, {Knowledge Nobility/Local/History DC 22) the home of Twinmold, (Knowledge: Geography/Local 22) after traversing the heart of the dungeons there. If no party member has applicable knowledge skills, use Diplomacy with a +2 DC)
Locales
Tora-tah-tah's Tavern - Clearly this place has lost much of its' luster. The hardwood that makes up the entirety of the building has started to splinter and pulp from decades of use and abuse putting the scent of oak into the air. The seats are as comfortable as they are worn and the drink prices seem just as old. The food matches suit. Tora-tah-tah himself is a creature unlike any you've ever seen, with skin the same texture and color as the stone mugs he serves brew as strong as he is from. Huge, orange sized pure black eyeballs dominate his face, with a flat, almost imperceptive snout and a huge mouth. It looks as if he wanted to, he could easily tuck into a ball perfect for rolling. He is unlike anyone else in all of Stone Tower, aside from his brother, Gukana.
Gokara-na-na's Extremities - Carved straight out of the rock wall of the canyon, there are strange ash and blast scarring outside of the upper windows. The voice of the owner Gokara-na-na can be heard even as you enter town. The inside of the shop is all carved to fit, tables permanently anchored in the walls and floor. The reasons for this become apparent as you see the blast scarring become more pronounced on the ceiling, floor and walls. Sparsely populated by objects of questionable durability, some brand new and shiny, others black with ash.
Ikana Castle - Boxed in by three sides into the back of the canyon, Ikana Castle is a sight to behold. Equal parts are woven into the canyon and free standing, making the several dozen story structure even more magnificent and structurally possible. Guards patrol along every other other wall, the only sights visible against it's hewn mason and natural surface aside from them are long streaming dark green and red banners.
The Stone Temple - Hidden behind Ikana Castle, the Stone Temple is actually a massive granite column as tall as the canyon itself. The first dozen stories make a huge tribal face, the doors making up the figure's mouth. The doors opened once a few decades ago but haven't seen the light of day since.
Ikana River - Emerging from under the Stone Temple, the Ikana River runs through Stone Tower and out into the Kokiri Forest. Rumors persist of Sahaguin or some sort of fish creatures living in the waters but nobody can claim to have seen them or any evidence of their existence.
A few days after arriving in Ikana, if the party hasn't already found Link (Diplomacy DC 19) he will approach them inside of Tora-tah-tah's Tavern. What they haven't learned from gathering information or knowledge checks he will divulge here, and that he may have an idea of who the source of these disturbances is but doesn't want to divulge the name because he has spies everywhere (Zelda II anyone?). He suggests that the party make for the Gerudo desert through the Stone Temple while he pursues other possible leads, insisting upon going alone.

Thoughts, constructive comments, negative criticisms - all are welcome and encouraged. The party's resources will be a level 10 Paladin with a Holy Avenger, a level 10 combat rogue, a level 6 Cleric and a level 4 Ranger.
Mostly I'm concerned right now with polishing up Twinmold and making a worthwhile dungeon. If there's any game relevant info that I can weave into this quest, however, that would be excellent.
Gannon (Nalfashnee) will be an extra-dimensional deity directing and aiding Gannondorf (half-fiend dire boar rogue/sorcerer), his illegitimate material plane son, who has gathered Boris (my PC), Tourniquette (rogue of the other party) and Zelda in order to enact the ritual necessary to materialize the Triforce of Power. First they'll be going through The Steel Tower and Ikana, fighting Twinmold at the end of the dungeon before being let out onto Gerudo desert - home of Gannondorf and his band of thieves. To complete preparations for Game 1 I need to come up with a full dungeon.

You walk into a room that is MASSIVE. It has to be magically constructed and it must be some sort of tesseract. It's several football fields in volume, and appears to be a self-sustaining desert in the bottom of the dungeon.
A Gargantuan Insect, consisting of two large, segmented worm-like creatures which each have large pincers and three large eyes with rows of legs coming off their bodies, sharing a tail on their stinger.

Improved Grab(Ex): After hitting with a melee bite attack, it can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can constrict in the same round as a free action.
Constrict(Ex): As a grapple attack the creature can squeeze its opponent viciously.
Thoughts, constructive comments, negative criticisms - all are welcome and encouraged. The party's resources will be a level 10 Paladin with a Holy Avenger, a level 10 combat rogue, a level 6 Cleric and a level 4 Ranger.
Mostly I'm concerned right now with polishing up Twinmold and making a worthwhile dungeon. If there's any game relevant info that I can weave into this quest, however, that would be excellent.
