[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8418789, member: 508"] I don't think I've ever built an adventure around the full lyrics of a song, but I have written adventures based on the name of a song, the name of a group, or on occasion a snippet of song lyrics. Examples include: [INDENT][B]The Soundgarden[/B]: A pair of fallen lillends kill mortals and use their bones, weapons, and armor to create a massive set of wind chimes on a cloud island.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][B]Black Hole Sun: [/B]A lich attempts to use a [i]sphere of annihilation[/i] and a [i]talisman of the sphere[/i] to destroy Oerth's sun.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][B]Ten Lords a-Leaping[/B]: The PCs find out ten Lords of Greyhawk have been [i]dominated[/i] by a beholder intending to secretly rule the city.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][B]Disc o' Inferno: [/B]The PCs seek out an artifact (a disc of fire) on the Elemental Plane of Fire.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][B]Gotta Find the Queen of All My Dreams[/B]: The PCs meet up with the Queen of Dreams and begin service as dreamwalkers, helping those who have become trapped in their dreams to escape to full wakefulness.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT][B]Birth Day Massacre[/B]: I haven't run this one yet, but it involves some major combat on the day a noblewoman is due to give birth. (I'm being a little vague on purpose in case any of my players are reading this.)[/INDENT] Johnathan [/QUOTE]
