[QUOTE="Ferret, post: 349239, member: 4052"] This is the first time I've Dungeon mastered, but already I have an idea, what I really need is specifics: Section 1: The bard hires the PCs to retreive the gem. He doesn't tell them what it's for, only that he really needs it. He offers them some great items/money in return. The PCs travel to the mountains, hitting some side quests along the way, and find a dwarf enclave there. Section 2: The dwarves will only give up the gem if the PCs help them - maybe run off some drow raiders? The PCs hopefully do, get the gem, and return to the bard. He tells them about his entrapped lover. At the same time, a band of githyanki have discovered the dreamworld and are enjoying it - they use it as a training ground for their soldiers, since magic isn't really expended and you can't really die, but they found it with the bards lover in it and captured her in a locket. A githyanki prophet has fortold that the PCs will cause the end of the dreamworld, so they send a squad to take care of them. The PCs are just randomly attacked by these gith and don't know why. But they'll find out... Section 3: The bard finishes his device and finds a way to help the PCs arrive on the dreamworld. There they have to deal with the weird environment and bands of githyanki and their minions, plus evil native creatures. They look for the woman's soul, but it has been captured by a githzerai who stole it from the githyanki, and are trying to defeat the githyanki. He doesn't realize what he has. The PCs try to barter for it, and the githzerai realizes he has something they want. He agrees to give it up if the PCs will help him go to the ruined world and free Ana from her dreams. Section 4: To get to the world, they need directions. The PCs have to track down Grumpy, get him to cooperate (maybe by performing a task) and then travel to the mysterious ruined world. There they find all sorts of evil creatures and mabye some fiends or something are setting up a base there. The PCs find a way to free Ana and everyone's happy! section 1. is 1-5, 2. 6-10, 3. 11-15, 4. 16-20 What can I do to improve?, any tips for DMing? [/QUOTE]
