Wed Aug 24, 2011 6:57 pm Question about the pre-gen characters from G1-3...

Okay; I just learned that there were several pregenerated characters in G1-3 including such a wonderful Gygaxian name as "Gleep Wurp, the Eye-biter"....here's my problem...

Despite having no fewer than 3 copies of these modules; (the reprints from the 25th Anniversary set; the 'super' module Queen of the Spiders; and Against the Giants, the Liberation of Geoff); I don't appear to have these characters stats anywhere....

Were they only listed in the original pastel modules? If so, why on earth were they left off of the 25th Anniversary re-prints?

Finally; if anyone could point me to a site that has the stats for these characters (in original 1st Edition form); I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I don't know about the original prints of each of the three modules separately (G1-Steading of the Hill Giant Chief, G2-Glacial Rift of the Frost Giant Jarl, & G3-Hall of the Fire Giant King), but G1-3 Against the Giants is the copy that I possess and it lists them all in the back. Also, the combination that follows G1-3 is titled D1-2 Descent into the Depths of the Earth. It and its follow-up module, Q1-Queen of the Demonweb Pits, also have these characters' upgraded stats listed in them.

Thanks Sir Xaris; I guess I will do a search to find one of these modules for sale on-line....I've been meaning to do that for an origianal copy of T1 anyway (I own T1-4)......thanks again!

Just sent you an email, Max.

One of the founders of our hobby and one of the most unsung contributors to Dungeons & Dragons, Len Lakofka has passed away at the age of 76. Along with the many adventures, classes, spells, and rules he created, Len was also father of the Suel in Greyhawk, designer of their gods, and namesake of the Lendore Isles. The value of his work goes without saying, but his presence will be sorely missed. The adventures of Leomund go on.
