Note
First, I must say that the group I game with and I are _very_ fond of your page. Everyone loves the collection of characters and rules (ie Undead Avenger, wizard attack spell casting restraints). A couple of weeks ago I drew up an adventure for "The Tomb Chamber" regarding a mysterious illness local townsfolk were contracting. Basic premise: Workers in a local mine are being attacked by some force within the mountain. Those who survive cannont describe their attacker, and have come down with a mysterious disease causing their bodies to become stiff, rigid, and unmovable.
Blah blah blah the story continues. What they find is a tomb chamber filled with Gargoyles. I've drawn up the following steps, and we've playtested it once. Seems to play fairly well, although we'd like to test it some more, in greater numbers.
Fairly complex, but a new and different addition. Feel free to email me with
any comments or additions you might suggest we playtest. And many thanks,
