This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Crystal Themed dungeons?
« on: January 14, 2021, 09:33:48 AM »
Hi there guys I have an ongoing game within which one of the reoccurring big bads is a wizard that uses crystal focused magic.

Im looking for a crystal themed dungeon to modify and throw in for a mid season dungeon bash, anyone got any recommendations?

Thanks in advance,

there are a couple.

Beyond the crystal cave uk1 module from the early 80's

hackmaser had one that featured a crystal cave if memory serves 'Porpher's Enchanted Garden'

I am sure you could find a crystal themed map on google too.

Or watch Conan the Destroyer and vaguely map out the Illusionists crystal Castle/Dungeon.
OK, kind of a crap movie, But I did like the Illusionist.

First, Conan the Destroyer is awesome!  Second, LotFP had an adventure about crystal-headed children or something.  I frequently include crystals in my stuff, but they always play a minor role, so that's probably not what you're looking for.  A crystal-themed dungeon sounds cool...

I usually shy away from pimping my own work, but The Lost Treasure of Atlantis features crystals prominently. Module is for levels 6-8, includes a remote town (10+ key locations) and an island with large dungeon (100+ keyed locations). Rated among The Best at tenfootpole and four stars at Age of Dusk.

PM me here or email me at chainsaw762@gmail.com if you want more detail about how the crystals fit into the module.

Matt Finch's great Spire of Iron and Crystal might work too. I prefer the out-of-print Mullen cover version, but I assume the S&W content's unchanged.
