ASC Review: Necropolis Of The Forgotten Hero

Necropolis of the Forgotten Hero (zs.gothpunk)

"Old school adventure" for four to six PCs of levels 1st-3rd

I am reviewing these in the order they were submitted. For my review criteria, please check out this post. All reviews will (probably) contain *SPOILERS*; you have been warned! Because these are short (two page) adventures, it is my intention to keep the reviews brief.

Oh, good...another adventure I can immediately disqualify as it fails to meet the requirement of actually being designed for a particular system.

[play-testers include a "chaotic drow level 2"...there is no such class as "Drow" in any TSR-era edition of D&D ever]

Too bad because the size is good, and the map is nice and...oh. Oh.

[sorry, just reading this]

Okay, so this is a whole story/set-up scenario thing. Rather than an adventure site. There is a "Dark Lord" (*sigh*) who is a GHOUL.  Ghouls, in AD&D have "low" intelligence (INT of 5-7), "their change from human to ghoul having deranged and destroyed their minds." Hardly "Dark Lord" material.

Oh my gosh. He even has human servants of the Dark Lord. Humans following a ghoul. 

Hard to tell if the treasure adds up as this isn't written for a particular system and magic items don't count as x.p.-worthy treasure in all old school systems. Regardless this gets only * (one-star) for showing an incomplete understanding of D&D.
