I am launching the LoF adventure path for my long running (18+ years) group and had to find a couple of things to tinker with. I was looking for feedback on my ideas and maps for the add ons since I am an army of one.
For the first module I am building two custom maps. The first is a custom map of Warfmaster Manor as I intend to create some sort of encounter progression with the building. Not too much extra story with this one currently other than an underground area for a known and private cellar as well as a...you guess it...a well.
The second is an extension of the set piece published in the module, The Refuge of Nethys. The background here is twofold, some old and some ancient. In room 6 it mentions that the northern corridor led to chambers used for magical research.
The story I've developed so far is this:
A temple to the Osirian god Thoth was built during the height of ancient Osirian's empire well over 7000 years ago in the lands now known at Katapesh. Thousands of years later the reclusive priests of Nethys built their monastery, initially unknowingly over the ruins of the forgotten temple to Thoth. Only when they dug out the lower levels did they stumble upon several ancient temple chambers that didn't succumb to the ravages to time. The priests built their research chambers around these old ruins as a homage to forgotten knowledge. These are the chambers that the module references off of room 6 of the set piece.
The maps I've developed are in CC3 so I need to find a way to share them in a suitable format. I will begin submitting a couple examples of what I'm working on.
