Frostgrave RPG campaign

Thanks to The Miniatures Page fantasy discussion boards, I've come across a blog for a new role-playing campaign using the Frostgrave setting here. This is the sort of creative idea I like, so I'll be following and checking in regularly.

My gaming life has gone in waves. Before I moved to Cheltenham, I was mostly running a very long term ancients figure wargaming campaign. However, two years later I still have to find a group that suits me, both in terms of time and location. I have visited a couple of clubs, but neither worked for me. A long time ago, I ran a very successful series in the world of Moorcock's Elric, using a whole range of printed scenarios and campaigns - basically, whatever was available for any system. I still have fond memories of those games, and I hung onto my library of rulebooks and supplements with the vague thought that they might one day come in useful again. My kids have never really been interested in gaming, apart from computer and video games, but I suppose I should count myself lucky, since none of them is hooked on violent games. Now, though, they want to try proper role-playing, so I have dug out my old fantasy RPG materials. The campaign starts in Ilmiora, with a series of e...

The Halls of Tizun Thane

This is a scenario from the early days of White Dwarf . It delineates a very large mansion that has fallen on bad times due to the demise of its owner; various groups are trying to take over the place. It is located on an island in the caldera of a (presumably) extinct volcano. I have integrated it into the campaign as the demesne of a missing senator from the Consortium of Ilmar, or rather what's left of it after all of the recent shenanigans. The party journeys northwards to find out why Thane hasn't been seen for several months. Bomilcar is now rested and back to normal, and the following narrative mostly follows his viewpoint. My comments as umpire are interspersed where appropriate. Jorthan leads the group due to his social status in Ilmiora. Bomilcar's narrative The five of us ride northwards to the lands of the scholar Tizun Thane, who many think is probably a sorceror. He has not been seen since around the time the raiding party landed in the area north of Ilm...

The Dam in the Hills

Sir Blanque   - swordsman and handsome, dashing noble half mer-person Marion  - stabby stabby dagger specialist; Nihrain who currently carries the Runestaff Destiny  - Menastrai sorceress covertly raised on Melnibone Bomilcar  - Weeping Waste nomad from a chieftain's family Campaign Diary ... Or, rather, a ruined dam. As the characters continue towards the hills to the north of the lakes area of Menastree, they continue to see evidence of the devastation wrought by the flood waters. Mostly, the signs are petering out, but there is one main river valley running through the hills that seems to have channeled the waters into a forceful flow northwards, overbearing the natural current of the river itself. The remaining force of the wave must have hit what was previously a dam, but since the flood came from the wrong direction, the combination of the original lake behind the dam and the momentum hitting it from the other side has obviously caused the dam to burst. From De...
