Description
As a relatively inexperienced adventurer, it comes as a bit of a shock that Calum has sent for you. You cannot resist the call of this old friend, however... he saved your life many years ago, when you were hardly an adolescent. But he has become a Harper now, and seeks your help. Will you become a Harper? What destiny do you choose?
Hi I'm quite liking the mod so far; normally i avoid hack'n'Slash, but i thought I'd give it a go. I know this is just the prelude to several mods; just qwant to know if they are ALL going to be hack'n'slash or whether later ones will be more story-based? (I do have to admit that hack'n'slash can be quite therapeutic sometimes... ;) The real problem I have is that basically, I'm stuck. SPOILERS ALERT!!! I'm doing the 3rd quest for Calum (MIssing Harpers) and have gone into the cave. Got to the gate near the two dead harpers and can't get through it. Have scoured the area for a key, no joy and can't bash the gate. Please tell me what i'm missing! My character is a female elven Clr7. Speaking of female, or not as the case may be, Little Jim called me Sir(!?). Is this deliberate, ie is it humour, or did you not tell him to differentiate? Just wondering... END SPOILERS If you'd prefer not to add more spoilers, please feel free to email me. Overall, I'm enoying it; if I can just get past this gate... BlueTressym

I've played through this series I don't know how many times and never bothered to vote before (I'm a lurker in these parts, what can I say). And now I'm playing through again and finding that I really miss that Spoiler Readme for the Prelude. Parts One and Two (Escort and Hooknose) come with theirs, I can't recall part Three (salegunt) ever having one, but I swear that there used to be one for the Prelude and it doesn't seem to exist anymore. I don't "need" it. I just really really want it. SO if anyone finds the darned thing let me know? In any case, these mods are tons of fun, and one of the few that I insist on playing from the beginning. Great work Dave, Jo Cool, Sidestep and everyone else involved.

I know it is not intented for multiplay, but the module is so good... I was playing with a friend and we could not enter in the mines. Can you help?

A good level up module. It did what it was designed to do. Players can start the series with a pre-fab character or a character from a leveler, but why not have some quick fun developing your character here instead? A good prequel to the series.

Good teaser for the things to come.

I played a paladin in this series and I didn't have any problems with this prelude module. I really enjoyed smashing goblins, and the monetary gain was nice as well. Overall I thought this was a fun little module to play and get my character ready for the real thing. _________________________ Romance Modules List | Male Human Portrait | Anera Modified Portrait | Artwork | Voice Samples
