First Post
I recently startet a new campaign, which should one day become some kind of modern version of "The Queen of Spiders"
The Resources
These are the Adventures I intend to use in this campaign:
Shadows of the Abyss (Dungeon Mag #118 Chapter 2&3)
Invest upon a Giant Stronghold, find out Drow are involved.
Rescaled to cover level 6-7
Zenith Trajectory (Dungeon Mag #102, Shackled City AP, Chapter 4)
The Kuo-Toa Shrine of Bhal-Hamatugen. I do not know how to incorporate this one at the moment.
Rescale to cover level 8
Wrath of the Abyss (Dungeon Mag #119 Chapter 2)
The Drow Outpost of Mirith Glarnon
Rescale to cover level 9
Expedition to the Demonweb Pits
The core of the campaign. The beginning Drow encounters will be cut, as they are replaced by Mirith Glarnon.
Rescale parts as needed. Especially at the end.
Crumbling Hall of the Frost Giant Jarl (available as free download at wizards.com)
This will replace the small "Demon-Quelling Sword" Side Quest. The Idea is, that Jarl Grugnir was drawn into the abyss, the players are to infiltrate his stronghold.
The Heart of Hellfire Mountain (Dungeon Mag #140)
I desperatly want to include this adventure, I just need an excuse to send my players to Niflheim, and raid a Fire Giant Stronghold.
Rescale to cover level 12
The Harrowing (Dungeon Mag #84)
If I could find an excuse to use this as a finale for the campaign, that would definatly be great.
The Characters
Balrog, a Goliath Fighter5
Torgeir Ironshield, a Shield Dwarf Cleric6 of Denier
Eadric, a River Spirit Folk Druid6 of Eldath
Fealar Clearbrook, a Wood Elf Ranger6
Arlana Wyvernspur, a Human Sorceress6 (Member of the War Wizards of Cormyr)
What happend so far?
The campaign is set in Cormyr, after the war against the demon dragon. One of the characters is a member of the war wizards of Cormyr. She hired the rest of them to invest upon rumors upon a new leader among the Giants, who wants to rally the giants of the Stormhorn Mountains to attack the weakend kingdom of Cormyr.
The players traveled to the Stormhorns, killed Sufrira, who, as Mad Amos, a friend of Giants, later told them, was sent by her brother the new Jarl of the Frost Giants, to tell Velikar, the Leader of the Hill Giants, that the days of the great leaders are over. Snurre and Nosra are dead. Grugnir is amiss. The Frost Giants will not march allong the Hill Giants.
Sufrira was not pleased by her brothers decission and decided to do some raiding before going back to the glacial rift. Thats why she attackt the players.
They had a first encounter with Asiroxa, to, who happend to pass by one of the ruinied giant strongholds. She only played with them, scorched them with her breath weapon and flew away.
The next day, they rescued Mad Amos, who was attacked by a stuck up noble, because he found some gold. The noble, Baron Teuselle, escaped, as did most of his men.
Mad Amos was able to tell them alot about the giants of the Stormhorns, especially where Velikar, the mysterious religious leader of the Hill Giants lived.
The characters continued through the mountains, and arrived at the Stronghold of the Hill Giants.
