TSR Example from the worst TSR adventure module(s) ever published

This thread is awesome. I'm so glad it was raised from the great beyond. I will have to watch out for surprise from apples from now on though.

Another encounter. The PCs are traveling east on this road. The boxed text is for the DM to read to the Players.

The numerical "typos" in this are not mine.

I like how the stat blocks include % in Lair: 20%.

Very relevant, given we know they're travelling on the road.

This thread is not an acrobat.

This has got to be the funniest thread I've ever seen on ENworld. I swore to keep my sig minimal, but your post near the beginning ruined it for me Simplicity.

Meh. A little overwritten, and it is pretty dumb that the problem is solved by just shaking the guy, but still doesn't strike me as all that bad.

It's also funny how there is this note: "The fireplace has no secret compartments."... Earlier in the adventure, the party is accepted into a mage's home to spend the night before going on the quest. There is this note in the text: "The party will not find anything worth stealing in Delon's quarters."

Well, least we know he playtested it.

And the Nymph and the lake encounter, why weren't there like 20 more deer unconcious? Not to mention birds, beavers, ground hogs....you get the idea. A lake is a major source of water for wildlife...sheesh.

And the fish?

This lake should have looked like a toxic spill occurred.

The scary thing about this module is that I actually PLAYED it!! This was one of the first modules my original group (back in junior high) ever played. Fortunately, I remember very little about it, which is probably a good thing.

believe it or not, just a few weeks ago my brother remareked how much he liked the module, said it was one of his favorites. i also remember playing it when it came out. i was like 14, my brother was 12, and we loved it. though we haven't looked at it since 1984. go figure. now i have to go dig that thing out again for old times sake...

I was once a "completist" when it came to buying modules...I may just have this one...

Note to self- take a look for this comedic goldmine!

Does anyone know the link to the Bad Module writing thread mentioned above, I tried it and it just goes to the ENWorld main page.
