Being thin is soet of an advantage, leaves it open for repurposing.

I do feel the character options presented would be perfect for a "Forge of the Artificer" style Ravenloft book. The Gothic Dark Fantasy vibes are strong.

Or bowling an Uncle's old timey Lost Mines of Phandelver Set, or playing at one of the schol clubs WotC has been fitting out with Beyond...

The book does contain a lot of potent magic items, including off the wall weapons, worth looking at if you have it.

There does seem to be a section about Returned Netheril...so the Shades being treated as 2024 NPCs seems likely.

Oh, also, what resources can you draw on? Fizban's Treasury of Dragons has a lot of material that would fit this this to a T, bot Draconic items and dragon hoard special magic rules, and Book of Many Things has some fabulous potent magic items. The Dexk of Many Things itself would be pretty funny.

So, what are the deets?

Axe of the Dwarvish Lords is always fun. Who is the BBEG? What are the details of the Revolution brewing? Would Orbs of Dragonkind contribute to fueling the confluct? Who are your players characters? Are there any signature items that would turbocharged each one, like a Vorpal Halberd?

Fair take all around. It is a very "Old School" Sci-Fi story. The novel had one of the more fun tie-in ephemera at the time of release, they actually made the Msth monk music:

OK, a little digging suggests that the formal answer ia that the Sea of Fallen Stars developed salinity in a similar manner to the Caspian Sea over millenia. Water flows in, but the only way it gets out is evaporation, so over time minerals build up.

The gods? A portal to the Plane of Water?

After 3E, Call of Cthulu d20.

DCC is a weird Grey area, so I didn't mention it in either thread: it has d20 OGL DNA so it is not not D&D, but it also isn't really a D&D retroclone.

It was created by a meteor shower creating a well up of water from deep below. Hence Fallen Stars Thay is on a highly elevated plate, sl the way that looks on some prior maps may have given you thst impression visually. Edited to add Thaymount as depicted in 3E:

OK, I had been wondering if the Dungeon Dudes new Daggerheart Kickstarter would a fourth entry on this list for them...but it looks like the will be lucky to top out at $600,000 for the Daggerheart version of Drakkenheim.

Makes for a quick and dirty night of gaming, since each is enough to run a full one-shot on zero prep work. And again, the DMG has step by step guides on how to do prep work with the mini-Advebture as a seed to make something bespoke.

Yet arguing over that math takes up a lot of online discussion.

Yeah, certainly bot impossible that was part of the soup.

The DMG mini-Advebtures are easy to run with no prep at all. The Encoutner math and maps are arguably the hard part, the other hooks arr easier to improvise.
