[Poll] What One-Shot Should I Prep Next?
Added 2023-06-06 23:00:28 +0000 UTC
We find ourselves here once again and I am forever in awe; in just over 2 months we made it to our next Milestone!!! Thank you so very much for your support, there's no way I would be able to do this without all of you!
Reaching this Milestone means quite a few things:
1) I'll be working with an artist to update the artwork for Advent's Amazing Advice! Expect posts detailing the progress!
2) I'll be reviewing my past work and making updates to them! I've learned quite a lot over the nearly year of prepping and now it's time to bring my older works up to par. I've already begun this and added playlists to the entirety of The LMoP, however, I would like to fully update the soundtracks as well and update all of my works to have consistent formatting!
3) Last but not least, another poll where you get to select an additional One-Shot to be released for the month! We have 2 selections from the last poll as well as several brand-new ones!
Don't worry though, whatever you decide, one day I'll eventually work on them all!
We've got quite a few options this time around:
- This level 8 adventure is a classic, one that has been talked about for years and has been redone time and again. Three magical weapons have been stolen recently. Clues in the form of a poem lead those in power to believe the weapons have been brought to a volcano which was once the hideout of a powerful wizard named Keraptis. These are no mere magical weapons, but sentient artifacts. Can your players survive the perils of White Plume Mountain!
- This is a level 5-7 Asian pirate-themed One-Shot. Buried decades ago, the great treasure of the notorious Captain Jadescale is waiting at the Mistcliff. Though the exact location of the treasure is unknown, it’s said that the owner of the Shore of Dreams has clues about the location, although nothing is ever that straightforward when it comes to treasure. Can your players unearth the secrets of the treasure of Captain Jadescale or will they be undone by its mystery?
- This level 10 One-shot takes place in the Raging Bull District in Waterdeep. A young noble is found dead a block away from Nabulee’s Bazaar of the Extraordinary. Everything suggests that Nabulee was neglectful and left his scarab of death unattended, which ultimately led to the death of the noble. But how did the cursed brooch find its way out of Nabulee’s impenetrable vault in the first place? And why doesn’t Nabulee remember taking it out? Will your players solve this mystery before the noble’s vengeful father has Nabulee beheaded?
- In this level 4-6 One-Shot your players will have to investigate a string of disappearances in the city of Silverymoon. Some townsfolk vanish entirely, leaving behind whispered rumors of fiends or other evil creatures having spirited them away. Others return strangely altered, with their memories of having been kidnapped wiped clean and their minds strangely dulled-and always with remarkable haircuts. Will your players be able to solve this mystery?
- This level 3-4 One-Shot will have your players approached by Tristan Harpell, an entitled young mage and heir to a suite of rooms in Ivy Mansion, the ancestral home of the Harpell wizard dynasty. His inheritance is “infested” with the wacky experiments of his dead great-uncle, Siegfried Harpell, and Tristan needs the party to clean things up. Your players will have many wild and bizarre encounters while digging through Siegfried's derelict magical concoctions and along the way they might even discover the astonishing truth behind Siegfried's disappearance!
Other:
- I want to hear directly from you! Name all the One-Shots you think would be awesome to run or that you have run and would like others to experience too.
- Leave a comment below with the name of a One-Shot and people can like your post, if your post receives more likes than any other, I'll work on prepping that one! Even if it doesn't work out, I'll add it to my list of One-Shots to check out and possibly work on in the future!
I can't wait to see what you all decide! Thank you again for all the amazing support.
Cheers,
Advent
