Holy crap.


Holy crap. Sakatha is, in fact, a great lizard king. Tomb of the Lizard King is deadly but the rewards are freaking amazing. Anyone run this one?

    Whoah, never heard of it, but from that alone it sounds like a perfect thing to throw into my current D&D campaign. What's the story? Is this a published module or something?

    Spoilers.....








    Sakatha is a freakin' vampire wizard lizard man with a pet black dragon and a dungeon full of nasty henchman and evil clerics. Magic items are all over. There's a couple of huge spellbooks. A dragon hoard AND Sakatha's hoard. But man, you'll need some good play to defeat all that.

    This sounds perfect. Oh man.

    So in one of the old Palladium Fantasy First Ed books (specifically Island at the Edge of the World) was this mini-encounter with a character named Selsesstissan, who was a semi-immortal Life Force Wizard (mage) from long, long ago when he race wasn't the primitive thing it is today. The players can wake him and possibly set forth a new age of gromek conquering. They also had these ancient long-dead guys called Lizard Mages, who were, like, The Shit at magic or something.

    My current OD&D campaign involves the colonization of a new continent, and the exploration of these ancient fairly alien-looking ruins. Essentially, the old lizard empire from many centuries ago. This Lizard King tomb would make a nice addition.

    And I'm totally adding this to my Against the Giants campaign. The swamp can be the Rushmoors south of the Dim Forest between Sterich and Gran March. Excellent. My players have been whining about lack of treasure (good naturedly). They want treasure, I'll give them treasure. And a stream of black dragon acid to the face.

    Nathanael Cole the pdf isn't hard to find. I don't think this one is on dndclassics.com yet.

    Ok, Richard G, had to think about that for a minute. +1 for you.

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
