I've got to use <a href="http://vengersatanis.blogspot.com/">the Cha'alt rule book</a> to roll em up but I've got their basic stats down & made em up on the fly using the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon Master's Guide. I'll finish them up for next week's game. These guys were made up on the fly during a random  encounter roll.<br /><br /><img height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXpAjuaY12ZCVkdNQDeDyCMDinQT_ffNYwiVDrPDVpd2qwngb8WDTzKM2PQ-ay-LrF8eijqcpb1qY-eGBMtPuSCJJ2q2haukqG4Cy3NPGu1uLt64OYQXP7Q5HqhpdrxTlKDEvZYmGaNXU/s400/IMG_2824.JPG" width="400" /><br /><br /><br />The dragon born nobles had the party camp in the ruins of another town along the way & found the place completely empty. The whole place was abandoned but it wasn't clear why?! The party quickly moved on but were a bit paranoid after dealing with the location. The next town wasn't quite as empty as the last one. There was fighting & a giant horde of zombies (the sorry remains of the town's former inhabitants ) animated by some strange occult power.  At the center of the horde there are was a rival faction of adventurers fighting for their lives.<br /><br /><img border="0" data-original-height="368" data-original-width="512" height="287" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOJdVJQurwoM3PjSJhCsJvIrOOuej3NOjN_Dwi5UbYTT-WOX6RgcEUP9vf_CaI4mW2Hvf8RMrpISVDBnTlv7OGmtaVoMiTuPzRXdEhszDOWwSpXMOF4UZD2PIJK4p75QLJcYLTvY53BTA/s400/Zombie.jpg" width="400" /><br /><br />The player's party saved the rival adventurers from the horde of undead but it soon became evident things are not as they appear. The town's bank suffered from a magical implosion. The adventurers investigated the ruin within their was a huge platinum cylinder cracked! There was strange metal with lots of people trapped within it but still living. They were caught in the magical implosion.<br />The metal cylinder was part of cache that was captured by the rivals when the adventurers were summoned to Earth. They captured a cargo of Azoth from Cha'alt and hid it within an abandoned mine near the town. The 'treasure' was found by some of the towns folk & the cylinder was cracked to gain access to the 'riches' within causing an occult implosion.<br /><br />The cylinders were created using the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon Master Guide first edition. These cylinders count as artifacts & the rules from the DMG are perfect are generating these dangerous artifacts.<br /><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white;"><img border="0" data-original-height="900" data-original-width="715" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1HVRbnwFZDVloEk7-UIi1DrAdEPm7UJ9pplozePhh59x3cpNd6CBnCIeneg65bcGF4Fc92Pz-lnXbFFjbjeVYGDSYoXA1P1aJSiC18ya0wlqgthZrd7IbLnPtuzSFUWSgbAQaZIcBUkI/s640/DMG.jpg" width="508" /><br /><br />The material from <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/233226/Heroic-Fantasy-Handbook?manufacturers_id=4277">the Adventurer, Conqueror, King rpg Heroic Fantasy Handbook</a> added to this enabled the final pieces of the Swords & Sorcery formula.So now the PCs are on their way to deal with the dragon but also now the adventurers have noted the cache of Azoth.

I've played through, been killed in, dungeon mastered, this module over & over again. I'm convinced that B2 Keep on the Borderlands is a military module in the sense that the PC's are called into a backwater village, area, & former battle ground between the forces of Law & Chaos.<br />Yeah this is a beginning & introductory module for B/X Dungeons & Dragons but this is one of its strengths. This is the module where so many players PC's died & they cut their teeth in the plains & woods of the Borderlands.<br /></span><br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1189" data-original-width="900" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisHhyphenhyphen_jWh0xJG2G8o3zhlxwbp1NbPUmUZEWZpP-oZf0DpEgDU-8jsbbDXHlz5a6pLJhqY_J5yo6HoxATXcsySLEoCDNsQs_4g2tNfgzm-GTJ4eSgF4GBH7pKW-CfWNHWSeJ_bY0pU3-z8/s640/17158.jpg" width="484" /><br /><br />When you go looking at two great internet resources for B2 there are two that come to mind one is <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/zenopusarchives/home/modules-and-scenarios/b2-keep-on-the-borderlands">Zenopus Archives B2 Keep on the Borderlands section </a>& the second is of course <a href="https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=40884">Dragon Foot's B2 Keep on the Borderlands Index </a>. We of course used an unholy combination of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons mixed with B/X Dungeons & Dragons. But here's the part that did in mine & my uncle's head; "<span style="background-color: white;">The following text appears in the 1st print that was removed for the 2nd print:</span></span></div> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br style="background-color: white;" /><span style="background-color: white; font-size: small;"><b>Using This Module With ADVANCED DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS</b><br />While originally designed to be played with <b>BASIC D&D</b>, the situations and places used in <b>KEEP ON THE BORDERLANDS</b> may also be used by players of <b>ADVANCED DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS</b>.<br /><br />To use with AD&D, the DM will find no difficulty in using the maps or room descriptions of the Keep and the Caves of Chaos. He or she may wish to expand or ignore the wilderness map and perhaps substitute personalized ideas for those listed. It will be necessary to alter some of the information on the characters found in the Keep to be consistent with AD&D. Likewise, the monsters found in the Caves of Chaos should be converted to AD&D (hit dice, alignment, damage, etc.). For experienced players it may be useful to include some more challenging monsters and more tricks and traps.<br /><br />As the party increases in level, care should be taken to see that they do not rule or take over the Keep. This may be done by having the main characters of the Keep increase in level and magic items to remain above the average of the party. If the party is 6th level on average, the Castellan should be 9th or 10th level. Alternately, if the DM wishes to use this area for future low-level play, he or she may encourage the players to travel elsewhere in search of adventure."<br /></span><img border="0" data-original-height="988" data-original-width="762" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNkjmwOZhBjraJep4qZEUCdswJFoW3jqAtgxzbTCI0VPU9V3MsVDluBp1Z4rf4XLieduqUBIRGggWTL3YrEuONmn5ui3H3w1Ldc6WKXXhgEicdHYZSFgSiaf2DBOv0WnecJsCheeDG-c0/s640/17067.png" width="492" /><span style="background-color: white; font-size: small;"><br /><br />Our party came back into the Caves of Chaos & cleaned the place out with an army of hirelings & mercenaries hired with the treasure from the caves. But little did we know what trouble we were headed into! In fact my uncle didn't take that advice & our party after dying in the moat house of  T1 Village of Hommlet  numerous times! Came back to take over the keep. His version of the keep resembled the famous painting 'Windsor Castle From The South'. But make no mistake at this was a Sword & Sorcery version of Greyhawk. Our PC's didn't murder the royals already in the keep. No instead they were called in on a battle that was brewing in the south. </span></span><div> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">We moved in & they died in the battle that was played out as a war game. And this is where the trouble began. We had to keep up with numerous adventures to keep the treasure & economy of the local region running. </span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: small;"><br /></span><img border="0" data-original-height="504" data-original-width="800" height="251" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieoz53INJOFArpMT1TAWpPFeaSDh-PCGtcI6PW5mbGXlimzgc9NaSBwwRTXZva5udGVCLdAmXZqH5xyjbMNz3FnLPl1GSbxGQDPBJp4IpysaEwIS3PmdlGhE6uM-Thnv4cAOD7HONnJco/s400/800px-Windsor_Castle_from_the_South_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg" width="400" /><br /><br /><i style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #222222; font-weight: 700;">Windsor Castle from the South artist unknown made about 1685 </i><br /><span style="background-color: white; font-size: small;"><br />In order to get the locals back on their feet & Hommlet into shape we had to use numerous dungeon treasures to fund our operations. And we ended up in the deep end of the pool especially in Blackmoor. Especially messing around the time & space gate deep below </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">the Caverns of Quasqueton.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> That time space gate enabled us to adventure on Gamma Terra, & into the time slips of Dave Arneson's  Blackmoor. And found ourselves in the dungeons of 'Empire of the Petal Throne' rpg . Note that we almost died horribly in the dungeons of Petal Throne.<br />For some reason that time gate resembled the one from the original Star Trek's episode 'City on the Edge of Forever'. So we were no strangers to gonzo fantasy & science fantasy adventures.<br /></span><img border="0" data-original-height="275" data-original-width="340" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYkhvp2aWQDPKkL6B8oiwsotEalR_2RZehwOXBKj_vNmau2eO-Qv_5bPcasT9TgF15XzshRis7zPalK4fiYTB28Vn7NSfFWCcEP1xxGa1pKleJfqKgGQ3o8vaAhbD7Yu2lHaXnzvgzC60/s320/Guardian_of_Forever%25252C_2267.jpg" width="320" /><br /><br />The problem is that the high level  PC's of my uncle's game are still sitting on the thrones of  the Borderlands & Hommlet!? My uncle ended up dying in the 90's but I've kept his notes through many explayers, ex girl friends, an apartment fire, & seven moves. That note book isn't far from me. And over the years I've used this version of Greyhawk being in the shadow of Hyperborea. Lit by the same weird red giant sun as the one in<a href="https://www.hyperborea.tv/"> Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea rpg system</a>.<br />Like Homer's Illiad & the Odyssey the gods themselves could die on the battle fields of Greyhawk. The fact is that no one was safe from when war shook Greyhawk. Even a few of Arthur's minor knights bit the dust that day.<br /><br /><br /><img border="0" data-original-height="444" data-original-width="292" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaTZuOmIwKI3X3rW2Rel1NEUKBil3HBN4ZtqmbtJgIQfX5F_yPuPd3Nna40_BExyd-5xi93vF1zumF8nQDiuP29Z7CoNrlUgym20p9kRdEHvTS4sHpuRQpSUdt4nJX8XytkGbmE7SzrMM/s640/And_grasped_of_both_wild_hands%252C_swung_trenchant.png" width="420" /><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">"Eric Pape's illustration for </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">Lyrics and Old World Idylls</i></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> by Madison J.

Loved it and quickly moved to AD&D and ran games for my friends for years. We couldn't make heads or tails of the TSR modules of the time, so we always used homebrew materials. I took a break during college and in my 20s, then picked up again when my good friend capitalbill started running an OD&D game with S&W. Eventually I started up an AD&D game and then began running AD&D/AS&SH events at NTRPG Con and Gary Con.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Atlantis was my first effort at a published dungeon, though it released after my other credit, Brazen Bull (in Rats in the Walls and Other Perils). I decided to write under Chainsaw because that's how I'm known on the forums and at the conventions. </span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: The obvious question to begin. How did you develop 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' for Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea?</b><br />A: I had an idea in early 2015 for a complex dungeon on an island, effectively a "mini mega-dungeon," then spent most of 2015 bouncing between mapping, keying and writing. Lots of times I'd end up revising earlier decisions, especially as I playtested (2016-2018) and saw what worked and what didn't.<br /><br /><b>Q: You've run  'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' well over a hundred times now.

I generally don't read a module unless I'm running it and what I have run has been designed by well-regarded names, so I'm hoping their strengths have rubbed off on me! </span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: How did you find running 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis?' & what were some of the pit falls?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: I enjoyed it because the dungeon's non-linearity, distinct-feeling levels and high interactivity kept it interesting - every party brought new situations for me. Of course, the price of admission there is that you have to prepare really well. You can't assume the party enters a certain way and then proceeds a certain way when there are multiple entrances to the levels and connections between the levels. It puts many, many rooms within striking distance. You never know how it'll go down!</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">As for the pitfalls of running it, apart from the design requiring a good command of the material, it was also much too large for a single four- or six-hour convention session. I addressed this problem by creating some mini-quests tied to certain areas. This gave the groups some direction and a sense of accomplishment despite not being able to explore the location fully. My play testers loved it - some even signed up for a second game so they could see what they'd missed. Even that failed to cover all of the material though. It's a big place.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: You've been highly active in the AS&SH rpg community & one of the most vocal fans of the AS&SH  game over the years how did this help you at conventions to run the module?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: Tremendously! There's a great group of friends at the Hyperborea and Knights and Knaves Alehouse forums that regularly attend NTRPG Con and Gary Con. It's easy to coordinate on- and off-grid games with people who appreciate what you're doing.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: This module seems to be a cut above some other OSR modules that I've seen over the years how long was 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' in development & how did this change the direction of the adventure when it first started?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: I had the idea in early 2015, spent most of that year mapping, keying and writing, then play tested from 2016-2018, always being sure to revise it based on what worked. These changes were usually smaller things that made a room or situation clearer, more interactive or more interesting. The main concepts and maps didn't change too much. I finally turned in my word doc draft in late 2018 and then NWA began their additions, editing, layout and certain other aspects of production.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: How is the 'lethality factor' of 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' in your opinion compared with other OSR modules?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: The groups that relied on brute force (e.g., kicking down doors) usually fared the worst, which was my goal. I think higher-level modules should challenge players to rely on more than their battle skills - to interact cleverly with intelligent creatures, exploit utility spells wisely, gather information, have good plans, etc. Anyway, I think we only had two or three TPKs, but there were a lot of one-off deaths. Someone probably died at least every session! We're also talking con games though, where people sometimes throw caution to the wind, especially toward the end of a session. Hard to say how it compares with other modules because I don't read many modules.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' adds even more to the world of Hyperborea setting  & really cranks up the 'alieness' & otherworldly aspect. How does your home campaign of Hyperborea differ from the 'official' AS&SH Hyperborea?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: I don't have a home campaign at the moment, though I've run a couple of good, but relatively short, AS&SH Roll20 campaigns (10-15 sessions) over past few years. I would say that those two campaigns were pretty well grounded in Hyperborea. Remember though, one of the setting's strengths is that it hints at things and lets you fill in the blanks.<br /><br /><b>Q: Do you see yourself returning to the world setting of Hyperborea in the future for other projects?</b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: Maybe! It's a great setting for me because it's rooted in pulp, which tends to be pretty varied and flexible.<br /><br /><b>Q: How did you find working with the North Wind Adventure crew?</b> </span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: Consummate professionals. </span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: On average what's your favorite amount of players for a module like 'Lost Treasure of Atlantis' and how long should in your opinion this adventure take to go through?</b> </span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: I prefer games of 4-6 players, regardless of module. At the cons, I'll sometimes run tables of 8-10 so that I can accommodate friends, but these games usually wind up a bit too slow for my tastes. As for how long it might take, hard to say. Groups vary greatly. There's at least a session of material in the town and at least three sessions on the island, so maybe four for a really efficient group.</span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /><b>Q: Do you have a love of Swords & Sorcery or High Fantasy literature or Appendix N material?

Frank Frazetta, Karl E. Wagner (Kane), Clark Ashton Smith (Hyperborea), Vance (Eyes of the Overworld), Burroughs (Barsoom) and Tolkien... but I also love He-Man, Thundarr, Scooby-Doo, Alien(s), Apocalypse Now, Clash of the Titans, Conan, Goonies, Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones, The Road Warrior, Star Wars (IV-VI) and lots of metal music, 8-bit NES games and other horror, post-apoc, sci-fi and western movies.

I could see adventures liberating slaves from crab-man copper mines, assassinating crab-man leaders at an undersea military complex or even chasing them off-world to Poseidenos, for example. There are also springboards to Underborea, of course. So, lots of potential!<br /><br /><b>Q: And what are your future OSR endeavors coming up? You've got the floor so plug away! </b></span></div> <div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">A: Ha! Thanks. I'm working on a new volcano dungeon (for OSRIC), similar in scope to Atlantis (maybe a little bigger). Planning to play test it this summer at NTRPG Con. Speaking of which, I should probably go work on it now!<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to speak with us at Swords & Stitchery & yeah you'd better get back to work now..</span><span style="color: #9b9e9e;

They also adorn themselves in chitinous titivations. When not raiding Pictish crab-kin villages toward the base of the Crab Archipelago, the locals fish, whale, and oversee slaves in copper mines on the nearby islands. The villagers view travellers suspiciously, but they will tolerate visitors so long as the strangers bring goods to trade, tributes for the crab-men, or important news."<br />This village is an important start point where the party is going to pick up supplies, rumors, hireling, and perhaps even replacement party members! <a href="https://www.hyperborea.tv/store/p37/The_Lost_Treasure_of_Atlantis.html">'The Lost Treasures of Atlantis' </a> is a fully fleshed out adventure & geared for <span style="background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a;">the far reaches of Hyperborea’s Crab Archipelago.  The whole adventure is for  </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a;"> four to six characters of 6th through 8th level.

Following the ancient Esquimaux bearing, worthy sea vessels at length will enter the tempestuous zone known as River Okeanos, located betwixt the 18th and 36th parallels. Here the winds flow in opposing belts, looping and crisscrossing at different junctures depending on seasons and other conditions. In Tempest (Year 4, Hare), River Okeanos is plagued by deadly whirlpools. Sea ice forms from Coda (Year 12, Fox) to Genesis (Year 1, Bear), and icebergs are a constant threat7 . Veteran mariners (viz. Amazons, Ixians, Vikings, and Zangeriosans) understand the River Okeanos and use its wuthering airstreams to their advantage. Less realized is the capability of Esquimaux seamen who ply this deadly zone in their umiaks, outfitted with outboard runners"<br />If your running the  <a href="https://www.hyperborea.tv/store/p37/The_Lost_Treasure_of_Atlantis.html">'The Lost Treasures of Atlantis' </a> don't take the oceans of Hyperborea lightly they can be deadly.

I've got little time but the United States Military is fighting back with groups of salvaged Cha'alt robots & droids. The Cha'alt wave & planar pulses have caused an EMP. Only the alien equipment,guns, & swords are working. The world has been knocked back to the Nineteenth Century!<br />What the PC's don't know is the fact that a wizard is gonna bring in a war machine ala Thundarr The Barbarian down on the player's heads tonight! Fort Hope has been the site for the military's rebellion &  PC's having a dry dock for their equipment. But now a wizard is starting to move in & crush this pimple of resistence & the best way to do that is with a massive flying fortress!<br /><br /><img border="0" data-original-height="533" data-original-width="386" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1zT06fpzMhZQuwO6Trq7iqljcB2qnHfCPTZhzOy_BFEwU5zU9cHsC_7ADQrptA9XgoQVuQDOGW83BZj_N-V9054Jf7TgAlNMqad7fRsoR17vBXHnGr-Rq6A37fHx1LzZI1b5vdNLMohg/s640/Galaxy_195301.jpg" width="462" /><br /><br />The forces of the black pyramid have taken enough of these upstart humans!

His daughter, a shield-maiden named Gunnhildr, has been abducted by a brute called Bj枚rn Blackbeard. During a desperate search, the Sea-Wolf crossed sails with a former rival, and from the blood-flecked lips of a dying foe, he learnt the location of Blackbeard’s stronghold. Now, deep in the misty fjords of Brigand’s Bay, where cutthroats, pirates, and freebooters thrive, you have been charged with liberating the Sea-Wolf’s daughter."</i><br /><br />So I approached the author & designer of <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/296282/The-SeaWolfs-Daughter?src=hottest_filtered">The Sea-Wolf's Daughter</a> by <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?author=Jeffrey%20P.%20Talanian%20(author)" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Jeffrey P.

Talanian</a>  puts the PC's into the Viking & mercenary underbelly of Hyperborea. Take one part Pulp Viking adventure romp add in lots of other worldly weirdness & you've got the makings of a higher end AS&SH module designed for PC's  from four to six characters of 7<sup>th</sup> through 9<sup>th</sup> level. This is a lethal party wipe of an adventure if the players are not careful. This is an upper level AS&SH module with all that that entails.<br />The encounters are harder, the enenmies nastier, & the setting is pure Robert E. Howard with a Lovecraftian Jack Kirby mix of high adventure. But the first part is pure AS&SH Viking & barbarian goodness with the PC's in the </span>employ of Ragnarr the Sea-Wolf, a jarl of New Vinland. But its the adventure material around the events of <span style="background-color: white;">'</span><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/296282/The-SeaWolfs-Daughter?src=hottest_filtered" style="background-color: white;">The Sea-Wolf's Daughter</a><span style="background-color: white;">'</span><span style="background-color: white;">  that really sets this adventure off. What I mean is that which each & every module that comes out for AS&SH, the campaign as well as the game setting of Hyperborea is expanded upon a little more. In this adventure some of the NPC's that the party is gonna run across are just as dangerous if not more so then the monsters. Not that these are not deadly.<br />The layout, cartograhpy by <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/296282/The-SeaWolfs-Daughter?src=hottest_filtered">Glynn Seal of Monkey Blood Design</a> is on point, but some of the artwork is down right cool with talent the likes of </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black;"><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Daisey%20Bingham" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Daisey Bingham</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Johnathan%20Bingham" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Johnathan Bingham</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Andreas%20Claren" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Andreas Claren</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Mick%20Fernette" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Mick Fernette</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=David%20Hoskins" style="text-decoration-line: none;">David Hoskins</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Diogo%20Noguiera" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Diogo Noguiera</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Glynn%20Seal" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Glynn Seal</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Val%20Semeiks" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Val Semeiks</a>, <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Del%20Teigeler" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Del Teigeler</a>, &  <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/advanced_search_result.php?artist=Mike%20Tenebrae" style="text-decoration-line: none;">Mike Tenebrae</a>.<br /></span><img border="0" data-original-height="510" data-original-width="680" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfPBemFBY9NlvHTL3HKUtNjfNGD5LfH-ak-Z-KBaHHpkQsIbjsMZiE9bc4o5l7wq1yuiqdq1K1G3-Ys7prXIQeCuYmCggFTGbH96N5qHHo1BpvunYUm2-MOc2xXzG7vQNv94P_lAqDbIY/s400/bc57246f24e5ac3382143959e05fe4f7_original+%25281%2529.jpg" width="400" /><br /><br /><span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;"><i>AS&SH art by Diogo Nogueira</i><br /><br />Its in the second half of the adventure where events turn into a </span><span style="background-color: white;">Lovecraftian Jack Kirby</span><span style="background-color: white;"> adventure experience.
