Four young would-be heroes are on the way to the city of Arion when they cross a bridge and are ambushed by a group of Slykk.
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?]
Two of the Candlestick Quartet are heavily injured. Billy and Johnny take them to the hospital where a strange relic of Thornrose's curse comes into play. As police get involved, Johnny has to struggle to regain some sense of control.
I am a pretty massive backer of crowdfunding projects, backing dozens every year. Next year, I want to see that number under 12. The reasons are a bit varied, but also not really.
I was supposed to be playing The GLOW but I spent my solo play time crafting up a fairly basic, but broadly "all purpose" character sheet for my upcoming Dwarven Halls Campaign.
I am going to take a stab (PUN!) at playing through the new Advanced Fighting Fantasy: Dwarven Halls campaign. It should scratch too itches: to play a longer-form solo campaign based off of pre-written material and to return to Ick + Humb.
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.
Johnny and Lanette regroup and meet Upton's family. Then, as they prepare to dive back into the mystery and start getting things accomplished, they meet a surprise person. A surprise person with a surprise gift.
