Back to the Dungeon Zine

Guess what in my exile from all life called a turnaround for at least the next few weeks I am going to be cutting and pasting my notes from "The Little Barony: Raven's Keep" and possibly the first two levels of the black stairs as well as the one level dungeon Bloodrock Castle. Also the area map where one inch equal five miles.

I am putting it in a little foldover zine pdf inspired by the Ryth Chronicles and the Mikidemia Towns of the Outlands and The Black Tower. Been reading that between the writing sessions.

My how far we have come in gaming and how far off the path we have went.

As long as my people behave on the job it won't be too much of a task for me to write my little booklet. If people like then I may write more.

Adarian Elves are considered criminals
Baron and his women
Baron's son and daughter
Dungeon below the city.

Eastern Front is where most of the slaves in the west come from. Zeuzalonian from the Land of Zeuzaylon. Looks are above average. Most braid hair upon adulthood and they wear Romatoga a light cloth wrapped clothing.

The Zeuzalonians are the lowest of all people followed by the Hattir, Dwarves, Halflings and any other foreigners.

To the NE there is the Gras-zi. They have jet black hair and pale skin. They are know as a race of “Thieves”. This native race has very few people left as the Mastdellian Empire conquered them long ago. Very prized and sought out as slaves.

There are the people of the NW Desert know as the “Juin”

The Hattir are the natives of the western borderlands that were conquered by the Mastdellian Empire.

The Mastdellian Empire are the people of the eastern kingdom some 14 days away to the east.

Elves are mistrusted. There are the Adarian (Adara) and the Felsparaians (Felspara). The Felsarians come to trade wines, skins and weaponry. The Baron ravaged an Adarian Elf Princess and now there is a state of war and any elf found to be Adarian is to be imprisoned and interrogated.

Crimes:
Any insults by a lower.
Murder
Thievery
Rape
Duels are good if both agree.

Temple of the Monkey God part 9 million

Well my computer is fried but I managed to save my S&W stuff before it died. Still should have not wiped reinstalled everything as that was not the problem, it was the Mother Board.

Upgraded to a new processor and mother board but BENT a few of the pins on the processor so I have ordered another.

Pissed....

BUT onto the Temple of the Monkey God. No I have not forgotten the module.

It is on the back burner. I just worked an out of town job for 67 days straight 12-13 hours a day then went to another 40 day job for 10 hours a day. I have been accused of "not ever finishing projects" by some of the Old School community but I know said accusers have no idea of the kinds of hours I have to endure.

I still have my 4th edition game which will now be on the back burner as well as three of my key players will be on a holiday schedule which is less time as two of them work for Salvation Army and one is wife of.

So this may free up the players for S&W! Back to TotMG!

Plans are to redo the map as it is very liner in design and the Temple needs to flow. The wilderness maps will be redone MADE DARKER and more encounters added in case the PC's "get off the path".

I now realize that I am a man alone when it come to getting help from my friends to edit, draw, and design anything but that is okay.

It seems that if you come out with a good old school product you can actually make a small amount of cash which is nearly impossible in the main stream gaming (non)community.
