>Greyhawk Rebooted is STILL down for "trust and safety"

>You were born in the Village of Arneson, at the headwaters of the Fler River, between the Burneal Forest and the Land of Black Ice. Your small village has remained at peace in your lifetime with only the occasional stray threat by some beast outside the gates. The village is surrounded on the north side by a large mount with a draw down the center, and the south side is protected by a stockade. The central feature of your village is the oversized pool of hot water that is derived from a natural spring, which is then warmed by a process of vulcanism beneath the earth, thus providing warmth to the village itself.1 In addition, water channels its way down the draw and then splashes from an overhang into the pool. When the cold water strikes the hot water it causes the entire village to be enveloped in a fog, making for the perfect camouflage. Those unfamiliar with the location of the village often wander for days looking for it because of this interminable mist. As the pool overflows, it spills gently over the south edge of the pool and begins to make its journey downhill, becoming the Fler River.

I made a collected PDF of this whole thing, 600 some pages but it was like 52mb. I spent the better part of an hour finding the best DPI and level of JPG compression that would squeak it under 8mb and still have legible illustrations but it absolutely borked the maps so I'll just post it in its original serialized format.

>In the two weeks that he stayed, he told many a fanciful tale, some of which were about Blackmoor and beyond. Oddly, these were tales the village elders had never told. One was of an adventurer who mounted an expedition through the Land of Black Ice to a place he said the cavemen called Rigodruok or, the Rainbow Vale. After defeating many monsters, including an “ice worm” he made it to the strange world that lay beyond the ice. While exploring this new land, the expedition was attacked by blue colored bugbears and giant spiders, and most of the party fell victim to the spiders’ webs. A few, including the party’s leader, managed to escape and eventually found a tunnel that traveled south under the Black Ice. They faced further dangers along the way, explosive jets of hot water and thousands of large spiders everywhere. They also found diamonds in abundance, protruding from the walls and simply laying on the ground. They grabbed as many as they could carry, but had to abandon most of them for the weight slowed them down. Finally, they reached the tunnel’s exit at the headwaters of the Fler River. Little did you know that the Village of Arneson was so famous! Although you also know there are no secret tunnels in Arneson. When you asked what happened to the survivors, Sormod told you that they fled south through the Burneal Forest where the leader was killed by a poisoned arrow from one of the local tribesmen and the others fled to destinations further south.

>The dream, then, was to set canoes in the River Fler and paddle all the way to the city. Each of you held this dream in common, the dream that one day you would journey to Greyhawk. This passion enkindled in you a fire that has continued to grow, and grew even stronger when you discovered that nearly all of the elders at one time or another had also ventured to Greyhawk. This was too much for you and your friends. You all shared the desire and you were all of age. It was time to go; time to go to Greyhawk.

Chapter 5: Clatspur Range - The Velverdyva River
flowing south from Lake Quag has a number of falls,
some of which require portaging, but when they hit
the mountains it is a good stretch of serious white
water canoeing – think Grand Canyon and the
Colorado River. In the Clatspur Range, a not-sonatural avalanche forces the party to paddle
toward the cliff walls where they get caught in a
vortex of water that plunges them into an
underground channel of the river. They enter a
large cavern where their canoes get caught in a
large fishing net and they get hauled in for dinner.
They soon find themselves in the middle of two
warring factions, with the
Temple of Kyuss in the center. If they can survive
the encounters with the grimlocks and dark
creepers and get their canoes and supplies back,
they will have to hope the underground river will
take them back to the main river because there is
no other exit from the lost caverns and temple of
the Clatspur Range.
Chapter 6: Yatil Mountains – When the underground
river merges back onto the Velverdyva River the
adventuring party will have to survive more white
water rapids, but if they make it through, they can
rest in the gnome village located on the eastern
shore in their caverns. There, they will be treated
well and potentially like royalty if they help the
Gnomes defend against the attack of the Norkers
(those silly little gnomes, always needing help!).
Assuming they survive, the Gnomes will have one
more favor to ask, could the adventuring party
clear out the cavern they discovered when they
were expanding their living quarters in the caves? It
only has demons in it. If they agree, they will fight
some gruesome demonic creatures and learn that
this cavern was the fallback position for the great
Archmage Iggwilv if she was ever forced to flee
from the safety of The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth.
Iggwilv’s haven, however, is no haven for the
adventurers.

Chapter 9: Dapple Wood – The Dapple Wood are
usually not a problem along the Velverdyva River,
but in the not too distant past, a very large group of
bugbears fled to these woods from the town of
Nulb where they were serving as agents in The
Temple of Elemental Evil. Having regrouped in the
woods, they are trying to regain their numbers and
strength. The bugbears are not too happy with their
circumstances and any adventurers even thinking
of entering the forest are going to have their hands
full.
Chapter 10: Iron Wood – If the Dapple Wood were
bad, the Iron Wood prove to be even worse for it
has become home to what has to be the first ever
Lycanthrope society ever formed in the Flanaess.
From the seawolfs that attack their canoes, to the
werebears that capture them, they will see nearly
every kind of lycanthrope possible. When the
adventurers reach the Temple of Karaan, the lesser
god of lycanthropes, the reason for this odd
gathering will soon become all too clear. The
lycanthropes of the Flanaess are plotting to rule the
world.
Chapter 11: Verbobonc – After escaping the
Temple of Karaan in the Iron Wood, the adventurers
make it to the great city on the river – Verbobonc.
On the river they are met by a cleric of St. Cuthbert
who needs some assistance from strangers to the
town. The Clerics are suspicious of the ongoings in
an old church outside the wall and they want the
adventurers to explore the site for them. They can
pay in gold and healing powers. The only problem
is the cleric is actually not a cleric of St. Cuthbert,
rather, he is a cleric of Tharizdun. In light of the fact
they no longer have the old Temple of Tharizdun as
detailed in The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun and
since The Temple of Elemental Evil is now available,
they are beginning to train new clerics to one day
Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil and people who are
not from Verbobonc are the perfect candidates.

Chapter 14: Nyr Dyv – Nyr Dyv is literally translated
as the Lake of Unknown Depths. The adventurers
are almost to their destination, but they must learn
to never, ever, let their guard down. What
creatures lurk in the depths of the lake? What
dangers lurk when coming too close to the shore
that is the Cairn Hills? What manner of deadly flying
beast attack from the air? The adventurers are
about to find out.
Chapter 15: Greyhawk! – Once the adventurers
make it through Midbay and onto the Selintan
River, things will flow more smoothly. The river is
wide, calm, and with the amount of trade going to
Greyhawk, there is safety in numbers. They will
make their way southwest and soon see the spires
of Greyhawk rising in the distance. Here they may
celebrate their success and honor the dead who
did not make the journey. They will arrive at the
River Quarters and can then make their way up to
Cargo Street in order to celebrate their
accomplishment at the famous Green Dragon Inn.

Cool.
