Here's a new piece for my Basalt Keep adventure. I tend to do game design by drawing pictures that pop into my head and building encounters off of those. The King in Yellow is the sort of end game boss for the adventure. If it actually gets to the point where Wilven is successful in bridging his island keep with Carcosa, it is pretty much game over as the King in Yellow will appear - a king whom even emperors serve. The adventure itself is pretty much a Dungeons and Dragons adventure but instead of going through a dungeon and killing everything in sight, the adventurers will basically be uncovering Wilven's goals and then trying to prevent triggers which will end up bringing the Basalt Keep beyond the Hyades to Carcosa. I am kind of thinking that it will be something of a cross between a standard RPG adventure with a sort of Pandemic board game beat back the clock type mechanic. It is less about killing Wilven and his followers than it is about foiling his plans. Anyway, still have some tinkering to do to get it where I want, but now I've determined that course of action, it seems a bit closer to actually finishing the adventure. Hopefully more soon. Cheers and happy gaming!
