Message: <blockquote data-quote="RangerWickett" data-source="post: 4825676" data-attributes="member: 63">I am in the middle of running a 6-session micro-campaign for my group, with the fun hook of going undercover slaying dragons in order to win the favor of a tyrant you're trying to assassinate, and I'm thinking of pitching the whole thing to Dungeon magazine as a 12th-level adventure.I think it's an interesting twist on the normal "fight the dragon" plot, because the dragonslaying is just a means to an end. Your goal is to help the tyrant deal with a few dragons that are causing problems at the fringes of his domain, to show that you're tough enough and trustworthy, so that the tyrant will bring you as back-up when he tries to kill a big, nasty, too-high-level-for-the-party dragon.It is while fighting that dragon that you want to take out the tyrant, but you have to do it without cuing his armies in that you just murdered their leader, and without the dragon killing you too.My players have been having a blast so far, and despite a bit of whining on my part about how much pain a group of 12th level PCs can bring to bear on a single monster, I've had fun running it. I wrote four and two halves of the adventures for 3rd edition version of War of the Burning Sky, but I'd like to try my hand at writing for 4th edition. Would you think this might be interesting as an adventure in Dungeon? For those of you who've gotten stuff accepted by Dungeon, do you have any advice for how I should go about pitching to the WotC folks?</blockquote>
