Orcus, Prince of Undeath
Submitted by D. Garry Stupack on Sat, Mar 19 2011 - 23:00Long awaited, much anticipated, here is Orcus! The Orcus scenario pits a seasoned group of adventurers against the Prince of the Undead, in one of his lairs. But beware, for recent events have left Orcus in a greatly empowered state. (perhaps a recent encounter with the Raven Queen?)
Whether you play the role of Orcus, revelling in your role as a merciless titan, or take on the role of the underdog Heroes out to stop him, the scenario is dynamic and has a high replay factor. Enjoy!

Submitted by D. Garry Stupack on Sun, Feb 13 2011 - 23:00Strange things are afoot…
Valentine’s day is a day of loves held and lost, of both joy and sometimes, loneliness. In all cases, it is a day of mischief for Cupid. This year in particular, Cupid has been causing strange pairings with his magic arrows. Owlbears with Otyughs, Mindflayers with Minotaurs. Something is wrong, and clearly, Cupid needs to be stopped.
