[QUOTE="Sir Elton, post: 1512594, member: 14486"] Do you have a copy of Dragon #293? In that issue, Robin D. Laws gave some advice on making up a campaign using American T.V. structure.

Focus: SoulClv The pair of them encounters an evil witch wielding the one power. Focus: Xenia Xenia’s sister at the Adamite colony scores a junior position as a paladin of her Adamite community as ghouls stalk the countryside. Ensemble A town is being terrorized by a giant Cyclops who is allied with the priests of Hera. Continuity The pair are asked to broker some diplomacy with the Hard Head orc tribe as they asked for amnesty and citizenship, however some abominations that are half man half animal attack the tribe. Continuity Apollo is angry with Argolis and attacks the city, causing misery. The pair is asked to find out the cause.

Continuity A Circus woman under a terrible curse seeks to take Soulcleave’s life. Focus: Xenia Xenia finds an abandoned stronghold that was held by her uncle, but discovers that the castle is now held by Githyanki. Ensemble A group of Ares worshipers have poisoned the sacred wine in the outpost of Vesta, and the PCs must foil their foul plot. Continuity The pair traces a series of murders in Cimmerian Country to Laman, a Cimmerian who claims to be a Dreadlord. Continuity A psychic creature sent by Laman tries to assassinate another Cimmerian king. Ensemble A Cimmerian village is being terrorized by a nearby bugbear colony. Continuity A group of women have discovered how to make a magic item that increases their power, the women call themselves Black Ajah. Continuity The heroes trace a connection between the Black Ajah and Laman. Continuity Transported to the Black Tower, the heroes discover the Asha’man. Focus: SoulClv Soulcleave learns of the existence of a darker evil in the world, and is tested to see if he wields the One Power. Change of Pace Soulcleave and Xenia must deal with a ranger covered in leeches. Continuity The training of a Dedicated isn’t easy, as the heroes are sent to Sybaris to scout the situation. Focus: Xenia Xenia finds another brother living in Sybaris, living quietly the life of a Sybarite, but then discovers that her brother has been secretly spying on the Sybarites all along. Ensemble Several Pegasi are mysteriously disappearing from herds in Cania. Change of Pace The heroes are asked to deliver presents to a group of disadvantaged children.

Continuity A climatic battle that ends in a cliffhanger!
