The Unusual Heroes Enter The City of the Spider Queen!

[National Acrobat]

Man, I own this module but haven't had a chance to run it because I am running a SW game and playing in a DnD game. Your story Ziona is making me itch to run this one. I think, however, that they group might flay me if I do. I think a couple of them have read parts of your story.

Funny that you should use the word "flay." There is so much flaying of living creatures going on in this campaign...ugh...wait 'till you see what's coming!

I have enjoyed playing this module so far, even when our characters run into complications. Of course, I am half-drow, so I find the Underdark more interesting than some. Good luck when you decide to run it, and thanks for checking out the story!

I think that the complications would kill my group. They tend to have a "kill first, ask questions later" attitude towards the Underdark and it's inhabitants. The one thing that I have noticed while reading the story hour is that the Module has come more alive than when I have just read the adventure out of the book. Now that I have begun to see how others have approached it and the game, it has a better flow to it.

I play a Half Drow also, but she isn't anywhere near as nice as Ziona is.

Excellent write up Ziona!! Thanks to Belasco, I have a new sig for Tark ... *thank you*.

National Acrobat ~~ you should definately run this mod. If you fear for the life of your party as they are a "fight now" group, they may find themselves learning to make a new approach to the crawl.

It is nice to be back on the boards, and again Z, great write up!!

I think that I will probably have to give in and run it. At some point. I am about to wrap up the loose threads in my Star Wars campaign and we are going to pick up a DnD campaign (we have 3 revolving DM's among the 7 of us, it spices things up and gives everyone a chance to play) and I may decide to skip SW the next time my slot comes up. I have a 13th level campaign on hold that the City of the Spider Queen would fit nicely into. The only problem is that every character in that group sees the Underdark in black and white. They just finished interacting with some Drow controlled giants and got their butts kicked by some Drow right before that chapter of the campaign wrapped up, so now they fight first against anything from the Underdark. Diplomacy and Subterfuge escape them.

Thank you! And very nice banner for Tark, btw. That's Diterlizzi art! I love his work!!

Well,

Until Belasco rejoined the group, the party pretty much would just bull rush their way through the Underdark. Now with Belasco, he parlays for a minute or two before he gets frustrated by it's denizens, and then the party bull rushes their way through.

Not that much different really.


Keep up the good work Ziona!

Yeah, I wish my guys would take greater care. Here's my current party:

Dryad Cleric12/Pal1 of Heironious
Human Fighter10/Order of the Bow Initiate3
Elf Fighter5/Enchanter6/Arcane Archer 2
Human Cleric10 (of Ulaa)/Abjurer3
Human Psychic Warrior13

The Paladin brooks no negotiation with evil. Period. End of story. She constantly annoys the other party members. But they like her a lot so they put up with her.

Can you say "Avangel??"

It is very hard to endure Avangel in the Underdark since he is constantly trying to bring someone to justice, or destroy evil (which there happens to be an abundance of in the Underdark). On the other side of the spectrum, Ziona tries to coerce the drow she sees as redeemable to join Eilistraee's church. So, we understand the occasional conflict. We like Avangel, so we put up with him, too!
