[QUOTE="freyar, post: 3655211, member: 40227"] [B]Warning! This thread will contain spoilers for the Savage Tide, probably some other Dungeon adventures, and some of the WotC free adventure downloads. And whatever others suggest, so you've been told...[/B] Ok, this idea seemed sufficiently weird that I thought I'd ask here for ideas and maybe start up a progress log over in Plots, Places, & Rogues, too, if there's interest. My situation: I finally have a chance to get a full-size (read 4 players w/no DMPCs) D&D group of players who are mostly newbies. We expect to meet about twice a month, and I'd like the campaign to last about a year. The constraints: It needs to have puzzles/mysteries, pretty cut and dry morality, and probably a fair amount of non-combat encounters. Also, the setting I know the most about is FR, and I (a) don't have the money for another right away and (b) don't have time to homebrew. So it's FR. My thoughts so far: Demons or part-demons seems like pretty clearly evil opponents :D, so I'll go with those. This leads me to the daemonfey (half-fiends from House Dlardrageth and fey'ri) and the Silver Marches (Alustriel's country around Silverymoon, if you're not familiar with it). This gives a good range for PC race options, and the PCs can start out in the Silver Marches' army. In casting about for a plot, I thought about something based roughly on Savage Tide because I'm not likely to run that anytime soon and the folks at Dungeon have put in a lot of great adventure design. That brings me to my question: how to try to make this fit? Any suggestions are welcome, and my tentative ideas follow. [/QUOTE]
