[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 6057477, member: 20323"] Actually, according to the module the giant was polymorphed by a vindictive drow Mage who he insulted. The Mage planned to turn him back but was killed in a fire giant raid...or perhaps a kobold raid, the module is unclear. Anyhow, it all seemed pretty nonsensical to me, basically an excuse to include a tough SOB kobold. Or perhaps it's one of those subtle allusions to an older edition adventure, like something obscure from the G or D series... Thanks for the vote of confidence. :) It's great to get your feedback. I've read a few blogs/posts about other DMs who thought about converting Dragon Mountain, and what a good fit it would be for 4e. A fellow DM on the WotC boards actually emailed me homemade maps of the mountain which were designed for an online game, Since Dragon Mountain fit perfectly with our new campaign, I decided to go gangbusters with it. When I'm done, I think the PDF will be fairly self-contained so that a DM without a copy of the boxed set could run the adventure. It wouldn't be ideal, obviously, but everything you need will be there. Well, with two exceptions: 1) Non-kobold monsters are described in the Monster Vault. 2) I refer to traps detailed in Fourthcore's "Undermountain Mechanical Traps Reference Cards" which can be downloaded over here: [url]http://slamdancr.com/wp/hardcore-essentials/[/url] [/QUOTE]
