The module includes detailed maps, character sheets, and rules for Earthshaker's operation and the consequences of its actions, including the potential for widespread destruction. The adventure concludes with the players facing diplomatic consequences and the eventual fate of Earthshaker, whether its destruction or its return to the control of its gnome operators.
Chrysogon's Coterie is a supplement for the Basic Fantasy Role-Playing Game that features 288 non-player characters (NPCs) ranging from levels 1 to 9. The book is designed to be a resource for game masters (GMs) who want to populate their campaigns with interesting and memorable NPCs. The NPCs can also be used as pre-generated player characters with the GM's consent.
One of the key features of Chrysogon's Coterie is the interconnectedness of the NPCs.
Many of the characters are friends, family members, or members of the same organizations. This interconnectedness is reflected in the characters' mini-biographies, which often reference each other. For example, Achaicus Spinther is a cleric who knows someone that knows the someone you're inquiring about. His brother, Themistocles Spinther, is a wizard who taught his six younger brothers everything he knew. Themistocles is secretly a member of a covert group called The Octad, which is led by his friend Leofsige Alvine. Leofsige co-founded The Octad with Mallory Freemane, a cleric who is concerned about a group of four invaders called The Tetrad. One of the members of The Tetrad is Valentina Vibulanus, a cleric seems to be responsible for the disappearance of anyone seen in her presence.
The author of Chrysogon's Coterie, Todd Lyons, encourages GMs to use the book as a starting point and to further develop the characters and their relationships. He suggests adding new organizations and factions, and specifying the motivations and plans for existing groups. Ultimately, the goal is to integrate these people into your world, or build a world on top of them.
Palace of the Silver Princess is an adventure module for the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set, but works fine with modern retroclones like Basic Fantasy RPG. This is the original version by Jean Wells, not the more well known rewrite by Tom Moldvay.
Tom Moldvay changed the plot, replaced all of Wells' new monsters with standard monsters from the D&D Basic Set, and removed the empty areas she'd included to encourage DM customization (like B1 In Search of the Unknown by Mike Carr, ). In addition, the four contentious pieces of artwork, as well as many others, were replaced.Following the Silver Princess incident, Wells wanted to write another module, but in her words, "nobody would touch my game ideas with a ten-foot pole." When she realized her suggestions for new adventures and games were being ignored and she was only being given secretarial tasks instead of new design work, she left TSR.
It was eventually re-released by TSR : https://web.archive.org/web/20110629070516/www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/dx20020121x7
