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.

Note: I'm not affiliated with the company that made the map software I use. Just trying to follow the agreement that comes with the software.

Maps

Millimir Keep

Millimir Keep.png

Millimir Keep is one of five mountain passes into the Talik Region, which comprises a series of mountain passes and valleys. Each entrance pass has its own structure defending it.

Map Key

1: King Alhat's Home

This is the home you've been invited to within Millimir Keep.

2: Barracks and Storage

Guards and any heroes/wizards not taken along during adventure stay here.

3: Temple

A roughly circular building where the King, his servants, the guards, and guests can go to worship.

4: Farm Plots

Food is grown here, and stored in some small sheds scattered throughout the plots.

5: The north and south entrances to the Keep. Between is a dirt path that travelers can go on along their way, after they pay the toll.

Talik Region

The Talik Region is a mountainous region of valleys and mountain passes.

Map Scale: 5 Miles/Hex

Points of Interest, as described by King Alhat

A: The Riverbed

“Travelers making trips to Westrum and Avell Peak have noticed part of the Parrion River has dried up. Upstream there is more river, but over the last few weeks the dryness has progressed further.”

B: Forest of Giants

“We know that the Giants that live in this valley have been approached by a wizard who didn’t identify himself. The Wizard wanted them to join forces with him for some military expedition, but they refused.”

The giants live in a forest with oversized trees, oversized wildlife, and have big cottages.

C: Raiders

"We have the most contact with Lemark's Ferry, Twin Riverpeak, Fairy's Gold, and Forestlake. Lemark's Ferry has not experienced raids, but that is not where the iron is. Twin Riverpeak, Fairy's Gold, and Forestlake have all been hit badly by raiders. They have come from the surrounding mountains from the southwest, northwest, and northeast," He places a finger at the center point of the three valleys. They have badly disrupted trade and production of iron, gems, some gold, and other items. Our own defenders have been overwhelmed by the frequency and the ferocity of the attacks."

D: Underwater Palace

“Legend says an underwater palace lies on the lake floor here. To my knowledge it has not been explored. If you can find a way in and a way to survive underwater, maybe there’s something there that can help us.”
