[QUOTE="Jon Potter, post: 747884, member: 2323"] [b]I'm blushing...[/b] :o I appreciate all the praise from my players, but gaming is definitely a two-way street. If not for the continued effort and interest from each of you, this campaign would certainly have folded. I mean what can a DM do without players... play with himself? Err... That didn't really come out right.;) Anyway, I have to 'fess up given of all this back-patting. I've been hanging the meat of the campaign on a skeleton of published and free online adventures from the outset. In fact, the over-arching plotline was wholely inspired by a trilogy of 2E adventures that I downloaded in 1998. Since we haven't played through those adventures yet, I'm not going to divulge their names, but I do want to give credit where it's due. The following is a list (in order) of the adventures that have appeared (in some format) in this Story Hour. 1) [B][I]The Artist's Loving Touch[/I][/B][I][/I] by Charles C. Reed, an adventure found in Dungeon #68. They played through this adventure largely as it was written some time before the start of the Story Hour. I mention it here because several of the villains escaped, appearing later in and beneath Mom's Pie Shoppe. 2) [B][I]The Cult of Pestilence[/I][/B][I][/I] by Gebhard Blucher. The group actually played through a modified version of this adventure prior to the start of the Story Hour. They do utilize the cult's abandoned tunnels to approach Mom's Pie Shoppe, which is written up in the Story Hour, so I mention it. 3) [B][I]Mom’s Butcher Shop[/I][/B][I][/I] by Cyrus R. Kirby. A wonderful short encounter that I fleshed out into something more using some npc's from [I]The Artist's Loving Touch[/I] and a bit of meat from Flying Buffalo's excellent Citybooks. The butcher's shop became a Pie Shoppe and another sinister plot was added for the group to foil - or try to, as the case may be. 4) [B][I]The Cradle of Madness[/I][/B][I][/I] by Robert Lee. Another Dungeon adventure - this time from issue #87. This one underwent a great deal of modifying before finding its way into the Realms of Enlightenment, but the story kernel is still there. 5) [B][I]One Day's Journey into Night[/I][/B][I][/I] by Wil Upchurch. Again, this one has been heavily modified, but it is the inspiration for the party's current adventure. [/QUOTE]
