[QUOTE="Rastfar, post: 986435, member: 9596"] Not exactly on the subject. One of the campaigns that I started was similar in that the PC's suddenly found themselves in an unknown place at an unknown time, disrupted from their ordinary lives. If you read the 2E version of Monster Summoning (i), it actually details that sometimes erroneously PC's are summoned instead. I find this great. An evil/good NPC may have been expecting one thing but all of a sudden 'POP' free-willed PC's show up. As per the 'useless' mage comment. Well, with erratic magic, anything can happen. Maybe all metal matter is not summoned but organic matter is. Thusly, a spellbook is not out of the question but most holy symbols, arms and armor are. You may have a bow and arrows but what good are they without arrowheads? Besides, you don't want your PC's to starve to death. By the by, this is exactly how Nemmerle started a campaign years ago in which a lonely Marshall of Thor named Buhrad-Puhn Rastfar grew to become a world-shaping influence. Perhaps he could shed some light with his ideas? [/QUOTE]
