[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 6990250, member: 12731"] Now with the announcement of Yawning Portal, I think I have my next campaign. All that's needed now is to place the seven dungeons on a map, and I'll have my sandbox. (That is, assuming Yawning doesn't attempt its own solution: I'm assuming it simply presents its dungeons as unconnected scenarios). The main advantage is in having a closed setting. If you use a chunk of the Realms, my players have a tendency to fly/teleport over to Waterdeep or other major cities in the hopes there they'll find unlimited magic shoppes and other resources. Also, plopping down these seven dungeons all over Forgotten Realms probably means it will be too hard to come up with an overarching theme connecting them all (as well as avoiding distractions), though the Rod of Seven Parts is a good one. Finally, I'm not sure the xp for gold holds water if used in an established setting. Since this will be my first such campaign, I'd prefer my own "pocket dimension" where civilizations outside the map area are inferred and mentioned, but actually not detailed. [/QUOTE]
