There's been interest in me running a pick up session of Swords & Wizardry while I attend North Texas RPG Con in June with my lovely wife.
So, what do I pull out for inspiration? The Tome of Adventure Design, the D30 Sandbox Companion and the D30 DM Companion. Color me inspired :)
I just need to get back to playing with mapping again - haven't had the time nor the right mental state to map, but I feel the urge returning.
Figure the adventure should be able to be run in about three hours and I'm thinking low to low-mid level (3-5 seems to be a sweet spot).
Of course, this would be my first face to face session as a DM since '97 (though I've done dozens via G+ Hangouts).
Damn, long ass time.
Woohoo! This type of thing is the reason I only signed up for 2 events :)
ReplyDeleteCool! Looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteIf you want something fast and light for adventure design, this one is a gem.

You've got some excellent resources backing you up. So if you suck it's all on you.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget CC's Tricks, Empty Rooms & Basic Trap Design.
