As I recall it had some good low-level puzzles, like the <i>faux</i> Elemental portals.<br /><br />I tried to replace my copy of this issue at a used game shop a ways back but a few pages were missing. Gguess which ones?<br /><br />(>.<)<br /><br />Yeah, the module was the center signature and the previous owner had opened the staples, removed the module cleanly, refolded the staples, and sold it to the unknowing shopkeeper. *sigh*rainswepthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06165059567790555748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114860.post-73879962777473118942009-09-04T06:28:46.460-07:002009-09-04T06:28:46.460-07:00Citadel by the Sea a pretty old one.

I thought that it might have been a Dragon adventure (since that's where most of Raupp's work was showcased), but figured that The Evil DM wouldn't have pulled something from a periodical likely to be older than a good chunk of his audience.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128359303310478673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114860.post-47377931507661229662009-09-01T19:54:47.412-07:002009-09-01T19:54:47.412-07:00Crap.

An adventure in Dragon Magazine?<br /><br />There's one I remember running where the adventurers went to a town called Awad, and I'm getting an Awad vibe off of him, but I'm probably off base.
