In , I got nostalgic for Mystara and spent several days creating my own massive 3e conversion for it In I followed that one up with another campaign that strung Wrath of the Immortals , Adventures in Blackmoor , and Temple of the Frog into a single time-spanning adventure that covered the entire secret history of Mystara from Blackmoor to the Cataclysm, to the creation of the Hollow World, to the Day of Wrath.
Recently, I've been getting the Mystara bug again, but I have decided to let it be. I have two campaigns right now that are taking up enough attention. But to scratch the itch at least a little, I wanted to share a campaign idea I was working on in that I never used. Maybe someone else will have use of it. Gaity is an Island converted into an amusement park. It has luxury hotels, museums, rare shops. Mock dungeons where bored Alphatian aristocrats can fight illusions and captive monsters to collect curated "treasures.
Gaity was never well-detailed. It is described only briefly in GAZ0: Dawn of the Emperors , and, while an important part of Wrath of the Immortals occurs on neighbouring Aegos, it isn't given much more detail there.
Here's its entry in GAZ The King of Gaity is listed as Timalta in a few sources, and as Tirumala Nuar, depending on whether you are discussing Gaiety before or after the Day of Wrath. The original queen, Tirumala Nuar, appears to have won the crown of Irendi and abdicated their rulership of Gaity some time in AC Timalta figures into drama surrounding the ruins of the Alphatian Empire later, and so makes an interesting NPC to build a campaign around.
Wrath of the Immortals boxed set cover At the end of the Wrath of the Immortals , the continent of Alphatia is struck by a magical superweapon that sinks it to the bottom of the ocean and nearly takes the rest of the planet with it.
