[QUOTE="engrishonly, post: 5427369, member: 38460"] EDIT: Mathalus sums it up below. I'm looking for information at this point. I'm trying to draw out more setting from you. I'm not criticising at this point. Back to the original post... ... Well, Thor's advice is to put this in front of the players... (Again, same quote, straight from the module, written by Gary Gygax...) That's the situation you have in front of you... a dungeon-based sandbox. We have the Keep & its environs. I've got stuff about the setting. I can give you more. There's a Chaos Cult. There's humanoids. There will be more rumors you can pick up at the Keep... basically, stuff that I'm picking up from you all as you put together Beliefs, Affiliations, Reputations, Relationships. Some of the stuff that has come out... a group of Knights Errant, including Ferrantos' brother. A band of Elven spies, and allied forest-dwellers around the area of the Keep (which I think will be Halflings & Some Elves). There's Vanity, Constance's sister, who may be kidnapped by the Chaos Cult... she's gone, in any case. There's the Forgiven adventurers, who feel guilt for the things they've done (which I might be connecting to the Halflings, and I probably will connect to the Knights Errant). What do I need from you? EDIT: deleted I'm looking for information from you to mine for setting details. This is to weave my vision together with yours. I know what my railroad looks like, so I'm trying to figure out where you all are going. [/QUOTE]
