So I figured I'd start a new thread. As mentioned in another we're running a game using OD&D via the Delving Deeper rules set. Our game initially started in the realms in an area known as the north. Near Waterdeep a vast frontier land. The realms is know for having different gates and portals that connect to different area's of the realms I also put a portal that would lead to Blackmoor.
I started it as a sandbox and gave my group a list of rumors, adventure hooks and told them you can use these or just trek out into the great wilderness to see what happens. They decided on following up on some rumors they had. This eventually led them to a hook that would point them to the gate I had set up. Not knowing whether they would ever investigate it, as I don't like running railroads. Well after several other adventures they did finally follow up. To make a long story short they ended up going through the gate not knowing what it was. One brave character stuck her hand in and then couldn't pull it out she slowly was getting pulled through one other tried to help and so on.
Well on the other side of the gate they ended up in what appeared to be a store room of some sort. There was a young boy there bringing down supplies who looked shocked to see them. He ran off, they followed and found themselves in some sort of inn. THis was the comeback inn.
After some talking with the locals they realized 1. they were in some other world and 2. they were not the only visitors from other worlds to come through. Soon they learned why it was called the comeback inn.
Last they did a bit more exploring of the town. I'm needing to head out and will post more on this later.
