Adventure Hooks for Dark Sun

OP again,

I forgot to mention that I'm using the original setting, not the stuff after Kalak died.

Easiest thing to do in DSun is to start them off as slaves on some sort of expedition, and toss them opportunities to rebel and/or escape.

This provides itself with further opportunities as their former master might want to track them down and pay them back for their little act of rebellion.


Sadly, my only real exposure to the setting is Shattered Lands and Wake of the Ravager, but that's simple enough. Hell, you could probably copy and expand on Shattered lands and it'd be awesome.

I'll be sure and give Shattered Lands a look. I like the idea of escape from slavery as a start a lot, would help them get used to the slavery dynamic of the setting (none of them have played in it before).

You can get it for free here (I think, it's been a while)

It's a pretty good game, for an old as fuck CRPG.

Just be warned: the end end fight is a MASSIVE spike in difficulty.

So aside from what I could take from Shattered Lands, any ideas for what to do in terms of what comes after the escape inevitably happens?

I dunno if Dark Sun has a lot of the old "ancient ruins full of cool stuff" going for it like your average fantasy setting, or how a pack of obvious ex-slaves (since slaves are branded or marked to identify them) can do much in terms of civilized interaction in the cities.
