Elminster's Ecologies (1994)

From the back of the box:

An Excerpt from
An Investigation into the Natural System of Organisms and Their Surroundings
by Elminster of Shadowdale

     The world is vast and varied, comprising towering mountains, dense jungles, and sprawling seas. There are regions so cold that their snow never melts, others so hot that their rain turns to steam as it touches the ground.
     It is this variety of environments that accounts for the variety of life. In my travels I have noted 73 distinct types of pine trees. . . . I estimate the number of fishes at well over five thousand. The number of insect species likely exceeds the number of grains of sand on the shores of Dragon Reach.
     Every environment, no matter how hostile to humankind, is compatible with some form of life. The diversity and adaptability of organisms are staggering. . . .

Within this set are nine booklets. Eight of them, each written by an expert in the area, describe various ecological niches on the continent of Faerun. Begin by reading the Explorer's Manual, which:

• introduces the reader to the organization of the eight area-specific booklets
• contains the whole of the above excerpt from Elminster's work-in-progress about Realmsian biodiversity
• provides color-coded encounter tables for the eight other booklets along with instructions for their use.

Would-be travelers are advised to read well the information presented by the Sage of Shadowdale and his eight compatriots, and to memorize the Rules of the Rabbit. There are only three: A rabbit isn't always a rabbit. A rabbit doesn't want to be rich. A rabbit doesn't always stay put. An explanation? You'll find it in the Explorer's Manual. Read on, thou hearty adventurer!

But mind me lads and lassies, there are other things there as well - danger and risk and uncertainty, and creatures never before seen by the likes of sell-swords and wizards who tread upon the sun-lit lands of the Realms.

"This place is called Undermountain. And it is far beneath the crust of this world, yet right under fair Waterdeep. It is a dangerous labyrinth nestled deep in the bowels of the earth. It is a dungeon. I, Elminster of Shadowdale, know well. I shall tell you of these twisting corridors, and of the man who made them his.

A dungeon map with rooms is printed in the center of the book, and numbered passages corresponding with the rooms are scattered throughout. A party of characters is moved through the map, battling monsters until a treasure is found or everyone is killed. The scenario was designed and written by Gary Gygax.
 

GameMaster Publications (Issue 5 - Feb 1987)

From the web:

This was the last issue of GMPubs.

FEATURE SCENARIO:

The Rod of Serraillian: A complete 40-page adventure for 6-9 characters of levels 6-8.

Traveling long distances is the constant lot of the adventurer. This time, their quest will take them across the sea, and deep into the interior of a country they know little about, to retrieve an artifact stolen by one bunch of clerics from another. Now, we all know that meddling in the affairs of the Gods can be a hazardous affair, but this time the Gods haven't been worshiped for hundreds of years, and their clerics slaughtered each other in a great battle back in the distant past. Maybe this is that adventure we've all been waiting for, where the treasure is just sort of sitting there, and all we have to do is go and get it...
