Editing Defenders of Talik (section)

= Introductory Pitch and Instructions = 

The Talik Region bordering the Kingdom of Alef is prime territory for industry, trade, and adventure. Alef has gotten quite rich off it, but lately operations and their cut of the profit has been reduced.

It wasn’t long, then, before the King of Alef, King Alhat, made a call to heroes and wizards he thought would be capable of dealing with this issue. A Royal messenger hand delivered a letter to you with the royal seal of King Alhat. After a letterhead and greeting full of pomp and flourish, the letter went on to say:

“You are invited to Millimir Keep for a dinner in which the problems facing our Kingdom and the Talik Region will be discussed. Please, if you will, join me for dinner at my home in the Keep and we can discuss your reward. Feel free to bring whoever else you know that you believe would suit the task. I’ve enclosed a map that will direct you on your trip to the Keep.”

In this game we’ll play The Fantasy Trip. I’m new to the system but I liked the idea and nostalgia of it. I’ll try to use maps and battle maps to bring this game alive. Millimir Keep is located in one of the five mountain passes into the Talik Region.

In the world where this game is set, the core humanoids Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, Orcs, and Goblins all live together. You can pick one of them, or something else you think might be fun that we can decide on.

Starting characters get 34 points divided amongst ST DX and IQ. You don’t need to start with the starting attribute templates as shown on page 15 of Into the Labyrinth but you do get any mentioned special abilities. If you’d like to start with the starting attributes I think you’ll just add two more points to the existing extra points you get (e.g. six plus two for a Halfling).

Your characters start with $1,000.

If you happen across anything in Melee and Wizard that conflicts with Into the Labyrinth, please go with what’s in Into the Labyrinth.
