Hello all! I m a brazilian player who discovered DK a few months ago in www.darksun.com.br and want to test my campaign ideas with oters.
My PCs start before the PrismPentad events and must begin as dwarfs. They leave NorthLedopolus together with the mentor of the group’s combatant to help him complete his focus, delivering an ancient magical darven metal weopon to a merchant in Balic. They are obviously attacked on their way to the city by raiders and monsters. This start is not supposed to be too dangerous but if they get unlucky or just be stupid one or more of then will die and surprise, they have a banshee to deal with now. Arriving there they still have to find the merchant(a house Wavir agent) and keep the weapon safe from thieves. Just after discovering some info that should take then to the merchant, the mentor is killed by an elfen assasin after the treasure and this part end with then beating the elf and his side-kicks. Finally the weapon is delivered and, after hearing their story, the merchant offer then work as guards in one caravan to Tyr.

During the trip they are attacked again but nothing too important happens except a thieve attack in Altaruck( learn on the hard way).Arriving there they et paid and have a week free until the next caravan leaves. Kalaks Ziggurat is been build but he his not too crazy yet, so the only possible problem with that will be a templar trying to take money from then so that they wont face some false accusation.
First chance to really choose between good and evil, a suspicios guy approaches then offering some good cash if they “take care” of some freeman who is said to be a wizard.
This all and some other stuff I m still thinking about are my PART I of the campaign.
Some adventures and levels later the PCs eventually return home, hoping to find repect for their achievements, only to discover that their kin see the as a bunch of reckless brats who leaf the village to play hero and were not there to help while it was attacked some days ago. Even worse, a brother or other close relative of the PCs was killed in the batle trying to fill the role the PC would have occuped. Ashamed and a bit depressed they decide to start helping the village and ther clans insted of adventuring for themselves.
Here the REAL campaign begins, since the Ledopolus villages are trying to build bridges acrros the Estuary of the Forked Tongue and there ’re the giants of Ledo on their way. I plan throw then to many logistic adventures as well as diplomacy and defence. The succes of the building will actually depend on then since I think PCs should make a diference even when in many adventures their only reward will be their lives!

I hope you guys actually find some of my ideas interesting and criticize then as much as possible so I can make better ones!

For more flavor on South Ledopolous, you may want to check out the novel “The Broken Blade”. In the early part of the book, Sorak (the hero) travels on a dwarven silt skimmer from North to South Ledopolous & helps defend them from a giant raid, and then explores the entertainments of South Ledopolous with the silt skimmer’s dwarven captain.

The “Prism Pentad” novels focuses mostly on Tyr, but you may also want to check them out for the info they have on the other major dwarven city of Athas, Kled, and the ruins of the dwarven stronghold of Kemalock nearby.

Thanks for the help, although I don’t have any of the romances and will have a hard time finding any I will keep your tips in mind. If you’re interested I found this map of Kled http://www.darksun.com.br/mapas/kled1.0.jpg Could you plz tell me if the ruins of Kemalok are sealed or not ?

Wow, I never imagined Kled was that big!

I don’t think Kemalock is “sealed” since Rikus already went there, but I believe it is guarded by powerful dwarven banshees. You can read more about the treasures of Kemalock in the “Legends of Athas” supplement, which is a free download from athas.org.

I see, I wanted to know it to see if I could send the PCs there to “earn” one dwarven relic for some important mission. I knew about the guardians and I remenber reading something about Rkard hinself awakening as a banshee to protec the place. Since he was the strongest dwarf warrior EVER and almost killed Borys and Kled itself is quite strong all those artifacts can be kept safe.
