I so... SO ... want to turn this into an adventure.

Was bored tonight and paddling around the Internet when I came across this image:

I so, so want to turn this into an adventure.

What inspires you?

THIS was the inspiration behind the BBEG for my current undersea campaign:

 

[Camelot]

Have the PCs trek through a forest, where they have to find out why there have been recent disappearances or some other strange creepy introduction. They find a cottage and are attacked by seven dwarves. After eliminating the dwarves and going into the cottage, they find Snow White who says she was kidnapped by the dwarves. Turns out she was inside, saw the fighting and waited to see the outcome. Now when she has the PCs trusting her, she leads them to an apple tree and tries to get them to eat the poisoned apples. If they figure out she's lying, she suddenly starts attacking them, because it turns out she's a solo star pact warlock, or a star spawn, or something creepy.

I read a novel and turned it into an adventure for d20 Modern. Finished it last week (took three sessions).

I have had a couple of songs that have sparked inspiration. The only one I ever developed into an adventure was an old song called "The Tower" by Chris DeBurgh. The PCs investigated the strange disappearance of all the birds in the kingdom.

I never thought I'd find inspiration for a D&D adventure in the pages of Blueboy. But hey, it worked for Cyndi Lauper, it works for me.

pretty much what my blog is all about. what inspires me.

Most inspirations for adventures in my games comes out of random conversations I have with people in my gaming group or friend circles.

Sometimes I can be inspired to include items or characters by little tidbits of history or local folklore, like a type of yellow flower in Mauritius that was called 'werewolf flower' by the local people.

I find real world myth and folklore, weird monsters like Nuckelavee and Jack-in-Irons, to be the most inspiring for D&D. For superhero I'm mostly inspired by comics of the past, particularly the Silver Age.

I get my place names mostly from Atlases. Recently I discovered a hill in the Cheviots called Ogre Hill, so that went straight in.

Those "dwarves" look like spriggans to me. Make Snow White into some creepy fey monster and you've got a start. What fey are pale? Shadar-Kai?
