Message: <blockquote data-quote="Joshua Randall" data-source="post: 747403" data-attributes="member: 7737">Interlude - Magnamund BackgroundThe reason the world of Magnamund seems so well-realized is that I am shamelessly borrowing it from the Lone Wolf game books, by Joe Dever. I have layered a lot of my own ideas on top, but the foundation already existed.You can learn more about the world of Lone Wolf at <a href="http://www.projectaon.org" target="_blank">Project Aon</a>. Also, as you may have heard, <a href="http://www.mongoosepublishing.com" target="_blank">Mongoose Publishing</a> has the license to produce a d20 version of Magnamund. (Of course, I found this out only after putting in tons of work on my version of Magnamund... d'oh!)Anyway, here's what I wrote up as hooks for my players. (This is paraphrased from the intro to Flight from the Dark, the first Lone Wolf gamebook.)I've also established a theme for the campaign:Right now, the PCs are still in the "build themselves up" phase; as one of my players describes it, "It's like being in the minor leagues waiting to get called up to the majors."Finally, for your viewing pleasure, I've attached a map (scanned from Flight from the Dark) of the Lastlands, the region of Northern Magnamund in which the campaign has taken place to date. (In the future, I hope to get the PCs to travel to some of the other regions of Magnamund, all of which have groovy maps like this one.)</blockquote>
