OLD: What has been your favorite adventure? (Round 2)

Post by **Venture** » Thu Jun 02, 2005 8:29 am

This is the second poll asking what your favorite adventure has been. There will be one more poll after this week. The choices this week are as follows:

Siege of Spectaro
This involved the drow takeover of Spectaro and the coming of the red sky, along with the undead infestation from the Temple of Dirkar. It took you into the Mayor's mansion, and the Assassins' Guild. It led to the next adventure, Into the Upperdark.

Into the Upperdark
To end the drow infestation in Spectaro, you journeyed into the Upperdark to destroy the device that lowered the Lintaer's barrier and enabled the of the Underdark to join with their brethren of the Upperdark, and ravage the surface world. You met Gathtaren for the first time.

The Temple of Beam
Helping a farmer in Ransar, you explored the ruins of the temple of Beam below the village. There, you learned of a sinister plot of the church of Dirkar. A priest there was attempting to create an undead army, but you foiled him.

On the Trail of the Tiger Claws
This adventure spanned a few sessions, but culminated in the gambling hall in Spectaro, where you discovered the Tiger Claws' headquarters. The adventure also involved your trip to the slave market, and a seedy drug house in the city. Asia met her someone from her homeland, who was a prisoner in the slave market.

Reward and Retribution
You were hired to rescue a girl from the clutches of the Assassins' Guild. You snuck in to the guild through the Undercity of Spectaro, using a bit of stealth and a bit of force. You rescued the girl, and escaped before the full fury of the guild came down on your heads. Of course, in the process you made an enemy who would later seek revenge.

I thought Asia met her brother for the first time just before Simon whacked her mom (in the wizard's tower up north).

Anyway, looking at this list I realize I missed (a significant part of) all but one of these adventures. Thus my vote has to be the Siege of Spectaro. I wish I hadn't missed the resolution of the Upperdark or the Tiger Claws since they are close to my heart but I might still get another chance.

Your memory is better than mine. It was actually someone from her homeland that she met in Spectaro in the slave market, and she met her brother where you indicated. I've corrected the description to reflect that. Thanks for the heads up.

I have to say Reward and Retribution had the most profound impact on Skotch... turned him off towards using traps for a LONG time after he accidentally killed the girl with one...

Into the Upperdark had to be my favorite though, after all, Skotch aquired the legendary "evil dagger" and made his worse nemesis thusfar in that one.

The Siege was pretty fun. I liked the red sky and there was some scary moments for the characters. Ais almost died a few times with all the drow around. There were so many of them!! And we were all scattered. Asia only survived by using the area transitions to other parts of the city where she would by a few seconds and down a Heal potion. Must have gone through 5-6 viles in her inventory!! Expensive day!!

The slave market was fun to. Also cost Asia a bunch of coins to free that idiot from her village!! lol I remember all the citizen npcs attacking us when Zas cast charm person on hte other bidder!! lol It was a good idea though.

hmmmm, I'd say I liked the Siege best of those listed.
