at work i have thinking about this quest pack...

You all have asking some interesting questions, and a lot of answers too.

I WANT this quest pack !!! I want it... :twisted:

And i have asking myself about the real nature of morcar...
What does he look like ? Where and how is he born ? What is his power ? etc....

Suddenly one big idea ! Morcar is not a real person ! He doesn't really exists... So, the heroes can't really kill him.

I explain it more clearly : Morcar is the game ! :bites-lip:

Morcar is the boardgame, the dices we roll, the doors, the traps, the monsters... ect. Morcar is all of these things. Morcar is hazard, the randomized things that write the fate of the players. :roll:

So, he has no miniature to represent him. He can be represent by a dice, for example (it could look very strange !)
So, this quest pack will give to players, the real nature of Morcar, and make them understanding, that they never be abble to kill him. :lol:

What do you think about that ? Tell me ? Any suggestions?

I doubt he is a lich. If so, we would be looking for his soul container instead of him.
I was thinking. If I actually make the final quest, and somehow the heroes defeat Zargon, I'll have them try to escape his keep, but they won't be able to. They will die, but together, knowing they saved the world; a happily ever after minus the welcome back party.

You might want to check out The Tears of Times Passed for another take on how to shift the focus from Morcar to Zargon.

I have been working on a trilogy of this nature for a while. Building off of the history built in "The Tears of Times Past", I have Zargon taking over the Capitol City of the Empire and the Heroes must find a spellbook and an artifact in order to reduce his power sufficiently to have a traditional boss battle w/ him. With ToTP establishing that Zargon and Morcar are different people, I no longer felt weird about killing off the primary villian. So Zargon dies, we still have Morcar to worry about.

The first pack of the trilogy, "The Dark Alliance" has been posted here and I should be finishing the second, "The Hell Gate", in the next few weeks. I'd love to get feedback on the story, so check it out and let me know what you think. Note that I did design these to be played after all of the officially released quests and tears of times past, so the story relies on this info and they are quite challenging if your characters aren't built up.

Did "The Hell Gate" and the final part of the trilogy ever get published?

Yeah no kidding. You guys were on a roll with this idea, what happened. This would be so epic!

I am a big fan of Morcar and Zargon being two persons. That would imply as well that there is somebody organizing them, otherwise they would fight each other, weakening themselves. This third person we did not yet discover, and this third person is representing the real evil wizard.

So kill Zargon epically, then kill Morcar epically, no problem.
