We have created two downloadable page templates you can use to create your own pdf adventure module, one a cover and the other a standard page. The cover page should include all the info players would need to know to begin play: what set the Encounters are pulled from, any Relics that should be placed aside, etc. We recommend setting up 9 to 12 Encounters, devising your own nasty tricks and traps to weave between the Encounters and building a narrative that hangs everything together. Remember to include the reason for wanting to betray one another.
The story introduction/background should be no longer than a page and top line the current situation. The game should always start 'in the action' with the background story dropping you off right in the middle.
Spend the extra energy to devise additional winning conditions or on-going challenge help keep the adventure unique and exciting - and tied to your story. Definitely plan a big 'boss battle' for the end of the adventure with some 'wow' factor. Build plenty of opportunities for characters to make decisions and ways for the party to potentially avoid the deadliest of traps or 'dead end' encounters.
You can pull from any Encounters available to you, though if you publish them on-line, try to keep it to the base set and just one of the expansions. If you have Encounters from another set you want to feature, just include all the creature info so it can be played if they don't have the card. You should feel free to modify existing creatures to add new wrinkles and surprise the players or create completely new monsters of your own design – but just make sure that nothing you create unbalances THE GAME unfairly. Do the same with new Relics or Events. Devise new ways to award Prestige (there are no 'Prestige Bonuses' tied to which Encounter it is - the story itself dictates the length and the worth of the encounters).
Above all, have fun. And once you've played it with friends and LOVE it, be sure to find a way to SHARE it with others - either by sending it to us to post in our Fan Made Adventure page or at Boardgamegeek or other gaming site.
GAME ON! TRUST NO ONE.
