Last night Jon, one of the players in my D&D campaign, started running his World of Alidor setting for a couple of the guys and me. Jon's been working on this setting and running it for groups since D&D 3 was published and it shows. I've managed to put together the following To-Do list just based off a half-hour's pre-play dialogue, one session of play, and the notes on his website.
1. Woo Louise, the Wizardess of Yatton
2. Clear the Undead out from underneath the Ruins of Bunarn
3. Enter the Wookey Hole, if we dare!
4. Ride in a Gnomish Dirigible
5. Scale the Wall of Petrified Trees that guards the Elvish Empire of Taluo
6. Rid the land of the Black-blooded Slavers
7. Find the lost Tortoise City of Cork, drive out its orcish occupiers, and restore the Bardic College therein
8. Locate the Temple of the Couatl (if such a place actually exists)
9. Visit the God-City of Alidor
10. Slay the Dragon that menaces the island of Jelling
A Return to the Stars

After a veeeeerrrryyyy long, and mostly unplanned, hiatus, Stuart and I got
together to play more Stargrave in recent days. It was good! It was also a
bit ...
Are you calling dibs on Louise?
ReplyDeleteNot at all. If you want to try to win her affections I don't oppose a little healthy competition. But I think it was mentioned that Clyde, one of the two rubes, was her husband. I wouldn't expect a paladin to go after a married woman.
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool. I think every DM should aim for his players to be able to make a list like that after the first session.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great game!
ReplyDeleteI've been to Wookey Hole. No, really. Neat place.
Nifty link! I love a cave with some water and little boats for exploring!
ReplyDeleteObviously, your game had a better start than ours. The Florida crew spent the first several months questing for bacon. Our favorite NPC in Alidor was our buddy the baker.
ReplyDeleteOf course, we established our own country and Dre's character became a god, so all in all, we turned out all right. Let me know if you do manage to take down the dragon on Jelling. Zoraland would like to stop paying tribute.
I would also add two goals. Visit the Plains of Jerand without being eaten and solving the mystery of Pagdush Firethrower.
Happy gaming!
