A Scenario for the Stormbringer 5th Edition ruleset by Richard Watts

Just what do Calisander Trammel, the limping man and Baron Zamoro of Old Hrolmar have in common? All is revealed in this exciting adventure by Richard Watts.

Now updated and revised, Calisander: A Tale from Old Hrolmar is an adventure designed to introduce novice and experienced adventurers alike to the Vilmirian city of Old Hrolmar and bring to life its diverse assortment of residents. So please join us in this exciting adventure that begins simple enough but quickly escalates into a race against time, where failure to succeed might well signal the destruction of the Young Kingdom’s greatest bastion of change!

As quoted from author – “Calisander was first run as a tournament at the gaming convention Conquest in Melbourne, Australia in 1992. This expanded version is written in such a way that Gamemasters can include the adventure into any Stormbringer campaign, and where desired, expand upon the plot so as to develop it into the opening chapter of a longer campaign.”

THE SANDS OF TIME is a challenging STORMBRINGER 5th Edition scenario written for four to six experienced adventurers. In this thrilling tale, our heroes are drawn into the long lost deserts of the forgotten Quarzhasaat empire, and there will be forced to face doom at the hands of a long cursed God and its vile play thing.

Although THE SANDS OF TIME is designed to be the first part of a mini campaign (which is completed with the second scenario Shadows of the Past) it also includes alternate beginnings and endings are provided for Game Masters who do not choose to run the adventures back-to-back.

Written by Michael Baumann and Matthew Hartley, these scenarios were originally released via the Chaosium website in 2003, and now appears on www.stormbringerrpg.com (in this new updated format) with the kind permission of their authors.

A Short Scenario for the Stormbringer 5th edition ruleset by Marcus D. Bone

Chaos hides everywhere amidst the Young Kingdoms, fanned by the desires of mere mortals who lust for riches, power or eternity. In even the most law abiding of communities the worshippers of chaos can thrive, hidden in plain sight! In The Brides of Pyaray, the characters are lured into a mystery of their own making, where their desire to make good leads to an adventure offering dire consequences… does one dare ask; what indeed beckons the brides of the Tentacled Whisperer of Impossible Secrets?

The Brides of Pyaray is a short scenario written for the Stormbringer 5th edition ruleset, and is designed to be played over one or two sessions. The premise of the adventure requires that the characters have access to their own ship and are – as any good Gamemaster is likely to ensure in any case – a little desperate for their next paying job. Set in the Isles of the Purple Towns and dealing with a number of events on the open ocean, it is recommended that the Game Master has access to the Stormbringer 4th edition supplements Sea Kings of the Purple Towns and Sailing of the Seas of Fate. In addition, some of the magic described in this adventure can be found in The Bronze Grimoire.

This updated edition, adds little to the previous available version, except the addition of a new cover and a brief edit.

The early to mid 1990s was an undeniably golden age for the Stormbringer Role Playing Game. Under the leadership of the likes of Keith Herber, Richard Watts and Greg Stafford, it finally reached the creative heights it always aspired to, delivering a run of supplements that would become beloved by fans worldwide.

Yet this period of creativity would’ve never been possible without the individual writers who would take the raw concepts of Moorcock’s Multiverse and transform them into the scenarios and support material that has done do so much to define this great RPG. In this regard, few names stand out as much as Fred John Behrendt, the author behind many of the game’s best and most interesting adventures… and a true Champion of the Young Kingdoms

A One-Off Scenario for the Stormbringer 5th edition ruleset by Richard Watts

Fair winds carry a ravenous evil to Dhakos, City of Spires. King Dharmit’s capital of Jharkor is raw and bustling – soon it will be rawer still. Silver Leopards will die beneath the tiger’s claws as screams drift like seagulls over the once busy harbor. What burdens drove the slave-artist Halig to suicide by self-mutilation so soon after painting a bloody portent of his own demise? What nightmares and dreams of empire stir in the shadows and devour the waking world?

Inhabitable Dreams is a tournament-length scenario written by Richard Watts. Originally written and run at Arcanacon X, Melbourne, Australia, in 1992 (for 4th Stormbringer), it sets four nobles of Jharkor’s City of Spires – Dhakos – in a race to save their King – and his Kingdom – from the evil machinations of the dread pirates of Pan Tang. Designed to be completed in four hours, Inhabitable Dreams is bound to give your players nightmares!

The edition you find here has been updated to the Stormbringer 5th edition ruleset, and provides not only 4 ready to use characters, but also a number of play-ready handouts designed to enhance your session.
