Hi all, thought I'd post a hobbies thread, the last one was last posted in over 2 years ago, so rather than drag up a zombie thread I thought I'd start anew. Obviously a post to showcase your other hobbies and hopefully post updates as you progress.
I'll start the ball rolling, one of my hobbies that I've fairly recently taken up again is role playing games. I'm currently working on the 2nd Edition D&D module A0 'Against the Slave Lords'.
I use Fantasy Grounds, an online platform as two of my players live in Cornwall and it's safer with Covid anyway.
The basic story of the module is that a short half-orc disguised as a dwarf has taken over the running of a lime stone mine/quarry near the village of Darkshelf. Business is (seemingly) booming, but the real story of the mines success is that the half orc is using the mining as a cover for a slaver operation.
The half orc has recruited some evil clerics to assist in the operation. These clerics are breeding a vicious type of monster called a Mud-Tiger. Some of these creatures have escaped and have savagely killed men and cattle along the river.
So my bold adventurers (I'm the Dungeon Master) have to find out about and stop the slaving operation and deal with the threat of the mud tigers.
All the maps are old black and white maps, I've managed to find some up to date colour maps online and I'm making my own for the rest using Campaign Cartographer.
Below is my (partially completed) map of the quarry area, the original was poor quality monochrome and not at all to scale. Mine not be 100% to scale but it's closer than the original. I still have some bits to do on the map.
I am running the campaign in early January so i need to get a crack on.
