[QUOTE="Richards, post: 5805346, member: 508"] My original 3.X campaign is somewhat on hiatus, since my oldest son (who comprises 50% of the players in that campaign) moved 8 hours away and we only get to play during extended visits. The PCs are at 16th level, and are on a mission to destroy Orcus on his home plane. To that end, one PC has rescued a holy artifact that was once used to slay an Arch-Duke of Hell and has it stored inside an extradimensional tattoo on his chest. The next adventure (whenever we get to play next) will involve gaining assistance on their quest from a valkyrie; to do that, the PCs will have to accept a quest from her in advance - slaying Ratatosk, the dire squirrel of legend that's eating away at Yggdrasil the World-Tree. The adventure ("Kickin' Ysgard") has long since been written, but I'm considering a potential rewrite to bring in my oldest son's roommate as a player, since he's interested in D&D and it looks like we'll likely be visiting them before they visit us. For that same campaign, I'm working on writing the following adventure, which involves the PCs trying to hire a high-level wizard, Bindlestaff the Animator, into creating a set of remote-controlled automatons for them so they can scout out Orcus's palace on Thanatos. However, his main construct lab is on Mechanus, and he's recently been dominated by a nearby hive of formians, so they'll have to go rescue him first. I've already prepped the next adventure in my other campaign, which has four players and meets roughly once a month. In fact, I already have the next [I]five [/I]adventures written for that campaign. (It's my primary campaign.) The PCs will be hired by a nobleman they hate to retrieve a portrait of him stolen mere days before its intended unveiling, apparently by a thief they personally saw slain. Has she been resurrected, or has somebody else taken up where she left off? Despite my heavy backstock of adventures for that campaign, I'm currently working in another adventure, this time picking up a plotline that one of my players left dangling during character creation that I haven't touched yet. He was born a human with red eyes, due to a fiendish ancestor many generations ago. (His family name translates to "Curse-Blood.") He's a paladin of Hieroneous (and also, due to a death and reincarnation, now an elf), and I've decided exactly who his fiendish ancestor is and what his reaction is upon discovering he has a great-great grandson who's a paladin. That adventure, "Bad Blood," will take place in a swampish layer of the Abyss and feature combat against a fiendish zaratan battle-tank and its demonic crew. My only other campaign is a one-on-one Champions game featuring an Iron Man type of hero named Jetstar. I've got the next adventure just about finished up - it's called "Faster than a Speeding Cream Pie," and features Velocilaughter, a disgruntled clown who gains speedster powers. Finally, I'm also in the "waiting to hear back" stage for a "Challenge of Champions" type adventure with a dwarven focus, originally written for 3.5 but converted to the Pathfinder rules.
