Just wanted to comment that for the last couple weeks now I've been running Dyson's Delve, the actual 11-level dungeon from Dyson's Delves I. I adapted it to 5E (piece o'cake) and the crew on Wednesday started up a fresh gang of level 1's. They've reached the fourth level of the dungeon (there are 11) and have almost all hit level 3 of experience now.
Fun part: when you get to the bottom level, where the subterranean lake is....I have more plotted, including the tomb of an old dwarven king on an island in the ancient lake, and a passage that goes even deeper, into the Cyclopean Deeps themselves...
For now though they are victorious, having slain the two manticores on level 4. The Deeps are still very, very far away.
Anyway, it's been fun running a "straight up" dungeon crawl lately. Saturday's got something special lined up as well, although it involves a return to something a bit more like this...
With a couple villains I plan to model after these guys:
I want to be in your games. :(
ReplyDeleteIf you ever find yourself in Albuquerque you have an open invite!
DeleteWell, it's a bit of a drive from Wisconsin. But, I'll see what I can do. :)
DeleteI was thinking that exact same thing, lol
ReplyDeleteHeh, invite extends to you too!
DeleteIs there an intro story hook for Dyson's Delve?
ReplyDeleteThere's a brief sort of framing about an ancient dwarven king, but most of the story is implied emergent content from the encounters themselves.
DeleteHmm unless I'm misremembering my add ons....need to dig it up and check!
