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

[ferratus]

Carl Smith, Micheal Williams and Tracy Hickman all combined to make this song.

Goldmoon's Song:

Grasslands are endless and summer sings on.
And Goldmoon the princess loves a poor man's son.
Her father the chieftain makes longs roads between them:
the Grasslands are endless. And summer sings on.

Grasslands are waving. The sky's rim is gray.
The chieftain sends Riverwind east and away,
to search for strong magic at the lip of the morning
the Grasslands are waving. The sky's rim is gray.

Oh Riverwind where have you gone?
Oh Riverwind autumn comes on.
I sit by the river and look to the sunrise
but the sun rises over the mountains alone.


There are more verses, but I think you get the gist. It is in 3/4 time, and the notes rise and fall like rolling hills over the course of each line.

You're equating Forest Oracle with Michael Williams' poetry? I think you need to hand in your Dragonlance fan card, Terry.

Cheers,

Well, I definately think Micheal Williams isn't anything special, but the poster wanted to see what Carl Smith got songwriting credit for.

I have to say though, this is a horrible song.

I love this thread. Glad it was rssurrected.

Anyone notice:

There is a pile of 12 or 13 or 19 apples in the center of the clearing. They look as if they have been here for more that two days but less than four days. None of the apples show signs of being eaten. All of the apples are red. One apple has bites taken out of it. In the clearing you hear the singing of birds, but the birds are not running or joking loudly.

One apple has bites taken out of it yet none of them show signs of being eaten.

Why not say three days instead of saying more than 2 but less than four.
At least the apples were not laughing or smiling. They stayed expressionless.

Still I loved a lot while reading this thread.

You know that was one of the fake encounters, right?

I fear the direction this thread is headed in. Does anyone else see the terrible bickering that is sure to ensue when discussing all this...........

APPLES VS. PC'S !!! COMPUTER WARZ

And why doesn't the fireplace have any secret compartments?

And what about Scarecrow's brain?

And what about Scarecrow's brain?

I think the note that the fireplace has no secret compartments is actually a bit useful. It tells the reader that Gary Gygax did not write this module.

Gary Gygax does not wear a sombrero. However, the fireplace may be large enough to accommodate a halfling acrobat that befriends wererats.

No, but he does wear a Viking hat. He is neither cheerful nor morose. He does not appear to be an astronaut. There is a 20% chance he is not actually there.
