My Gary Con XI game has been approved!

My Gary Con XI game has been approved! It's the same adventure as last year that I ran at North Texas but not Gary Con (because I had to cancel). It's now retitled In Search of the Brazen Head of Zenopus due to Mike Mearls using "Return to the Tower of Zenopus" for his game. I'm actually happier with the new title as it is more original and describes the goal of the con game. Murray wants that talking mask!

I've only submitted one session so far, for Fri morning 9-1. I'm still trying to decide on another time. My game won't appear on the Gary Con schedule until after they close registration (late December). They have 16 pages of games up now, but they are all Featured Events. #brazenheadofzenopus

If you missed it, I've been blogging my way through J.

If you missed it, I've been blogging my way through J. Eric Holmes' Maze of Peril. Chapter 1, Scene 7 ""The Grisly Business of Swallowing the Corpses", was posted two days ago (after a break of a few months). Of particular note in this installment, I show part of Holmes' original D&D map that corresponds to the story.

I'd never heard about this before, but apparently one of the Undermountain maps includes the map from B1 In Search of the Unknown. I just saw it mentioned on twitter, but Dyson Logos blogged about it back in 2011! Per his post it's in the Eastern part of Level 1. Other parts of the maps come from a Tekumel megadungeon that David Sutherland drew back in '70s.
