FormCritic wrote:Just a guess...I think Burnt Offerings (PFA#1) went mostly to people who had credit left on their DRAGON or DUNGEON magazine subscriptions.That might make it rare because those were hard-core gamers who will tend to stay active and not sell off their stuff.That might make it less rare because there were more of them printed.

Keith the Thief wrote:Yes, it is. As I translate the monster stats, that's becoming increasingly obvious.Slightly OT (since I seem to excel at that), where did the "Aboleth" come from? (Yeah, yeah, a blasphemous cyclopian city deep in the ocean.)When did it come into D&D?I'd never heard of it until I was flipping through a 3E book on aberrations.It appeals to the Lovecraft fan in me.Just curious.
1. Under the city stretches the ancient primitive sewer system.In it now live monsters and colonies of creatures of all sorts.But, most common are the jungle-ghouls and the last humandescendants of the yuan ti ancestors. The ghouls and humanswage a constant war of attacks, sallies, counter-attacks, andsieges through the underground tunnels. More cunning thannormal ghouls and led by small demonic leaders, the jungleghoulsattempt to transform the humans into twisted slimebeastswith their cancerous touch. The humans are nearlyblind from the centuries of underground existence and rely ontheir other heightened senses to survive. They hate those whobring light, worshipping the kindly god of darkness who drivesaway the demons of light. It is rumored that somewhere in thetunnels is the fabulous lost temple of Ranet. The temple isthere, and is guarded by the giant snake-queen.2. As part of their plan to regain power, the yuan ti have revivedthe worship of a vile and loathsome creature from anotherplane. In one of the larger temple buildingsof the city, the yuanti have succeeded in opening a small gate to the creature'splane. Many small and horrid beasts have entered through thisgate and are being used by the yuan ti for their plans. Inentering the temple, the characters must defeat the orchonos - vampiric orchid-like plantmen. As they delve further into thestructure, the creature itself begins to take control of the temple.The building becomes more and more alive with pillars,carvings, doors, rooms and other features writhing and attackingthe characters. At the same time, the guards of the yuan timust be dealt with if the party wants to proceed. Finally, afterseveral dangerous encounters, the characters reach the gatein time to see a huge tentacle slithering through it. The creaturemust be driven back and the gate closed.
