Dwarven Halls Session 0: Launch and Starting Intentions

I am getting ready to launch a Dwarven Halls campaign using Advanced Fighting Fantasy (with back-up support from Gamemaster's Apprentice Deck: Fantasy (1e). Here I'll work out my starting characters and some other notes [so that I can later rewrite the whole thing, eh?]

Johnny and Lanette try to reach Billy but Billy is at Thornrose, a child care facility where every caretaker and child disappeared decades ago. And the swamp does not want Johnny to approach. At Thornrose, Billy cares for an injured Jayson while meeting his new allies. He also cannot shake the sense that something is using them all as playthings.

The GLOW 1992: Side Story, Berg & Erzse

Berg and Erzse are part of the Ancient Terranauts. A week before the events of Johnny Blue vs the Kid, they are tasked to carry out an interruption on the firework show at Gaston.

The Bleak + The Pearl, Intermission 8b: Building a Sidequest

I'm going to use some of my more recent materials — by Philip Reed — to try and come up with a fun little adventure. Mostly by tossing a LOT of things at a wall and see what I feel like scraping off.
