[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 5690083, member: 29398"] I name all adventures; and if I don't, my players do. Canned modules sometimes keep their original name and other times get changed to a greater or lesser degree. Some examples: Modules that changed name (all from my current campaign unless noted): [COLOR="yellow"]Shadowhaunt Temple[/COLOR] (was Keep on the Shadowfell) [COLOR="yellow"]Forge of the Furies [/COLOR](was Forge of Fury) [COLOR="yellow"]The Green Tower [/COLOR](was Baltron's Beacon) [COLOR="yellow"]Who Let the Dogs Out [/COLOR](was part of Night's Dark Terror; the players named this one) [COLOR="yellow"]Jackal Valley [/COLOR](another part of N.D.T.) [COLOR="yellow"]Lost City Found [/COLOR](ditto; this one will probably get renamed later) [COLOR="yellow"]Quirine: Flame of Chaos[/COLOR] (was Tower of Ulission, an old Judges' Guild module) [COLOR="yellow"]Markessa's Laboratory[/COLOR] (was A2 Slavers' Stockade) Some homebrew names from current campaign: [COLOR="yellow"]Two Blind Mice[/COLOR] [party stumble on two demigods who have been turned to mice by Ares] [COLOR="yellow"]Enter Magraine[/COLOR] [party finds corpse of a famous military general then resurrects same] [COLOR="yellow"]Xantos One-Horned[/COLOR] [party goes after a one-horned minotaur] [COLOR="yellow"]The Timeless Caverns[/COLOR] [series of caverns where time doesn't work very well] [COLOR="yellow"]Beyond the Crystal Veil[/COLOR] [party goes back in time and fixes history] [COLOR="yellow"]A Turvitian Tea Party[/COLOR] [series of raids against a village of "Turvitians" (Ogres)] [COLOR="yellow"]Ghosts of the Heceta Head [/COLOR][named after a Lordi song, uses song's plot] [COLOR="yellow"]Ruins of Fortune / Vortuin[/COLOR] [Vortuin is an ancient Hobgoblin flying castle; party find it, fly it, break it] [COLOR="yellow"]Key to the Seven Winds[/COLOR] [a line in a song, party go to Atlantis-like sunken city] [COLOR="yellow"]Holiday In Puridius[/COLOR] [party do good deeds in evil realm of Puridius - in theory] Near the end of my previous campaign I managed to string three adventures together whose names worked well: [COLOR="Yellow"]Coldwood Menace[/COLOR] [high-level party take on some unexpected Githi in the Coldwood] [COLOR="yellow"]Attack of the Bones[/COLOR] [they deal with a dracolich in its lair] [COLOR="yellow"]Revenge of the Gith[/COLOR] [the Githi destroy party's home castle then get annihilated] Lan-"and there's lots more where those came from"-efan [/QUOTE]
