[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 8084662, member: 54629"] I'm trying to remember where they all are ... *[I]Lost Mine of Phandelver: [/I]Is there an obelisk in this adventure? It's been so long since I last ran it that I can't remember. [I]*Tyranny of Dragons: [/I]I can only think of the three pairs of portal stones outside the hunting lodge in [I]Hoard[/I]. Can't think of anything else. [I]*Princes of the Apocalypse: [/I]Nothing springs to mind immediately. [I]*Out of the Abyss: [/I]There's an obelisk in the Whorlstone Tunnels area of Gracklstugh (the only bit of the adventure that makes any reference to Alice in Wonderland). *[I]Curse of Strahd: [/I]There are both the old megaliths near the hags' windmill (which the book specifically states were erected by the valley's original inhabitants and bear carvings depicting a city in different seasons) and the ring of standing stones, also erected by the valley's original inhabitants, near the ruins of Berez. These have a very druidic feel to them (especially considering they beef up a druid's Wild Shape feature when it is activated within the ring). *[I]Storm King's Thunder: [/I]There's the Nightstone, which always made me think more of the monolith from [I]2001: A Space Odyssey[/I] than these mysterious obelisks. Don't think there's anything else. *[I]Tales from the Yawning Portal: [/I]Given that these are all older edition adventures, I don't think there's an obelisk in any of these adventures. *[I]Tomb of Annihilation: [/I]There's the obelisk outside of the eponymous tomb, but I thought it was put there by Acererak. *[I]Waterdeep - Dragon Heist: [/I]I don't think this adventure has one, does it? *[I]Waterdeep - Dungeon of the Mad Mage: [/I]I haven't read through this whole book, so I don't know where the obelisk is. *[I]Ghosts of Saltmarsh: [/I]As TftYP above. *[I]Baldur's Gate - Descent into Avernus: [/I]As WDotMM above. *[I]Icewind Dale - Rime of the Frostmaiden: [/I]The obelisk is in the fallen Netherese city of Ythryn. Am I missing any? [/QUOTE]
