Poetic Platitudes of the Potato People: A humorous adventure for Four Against Darkness (2021)

Overview

Not With a Bang But a Whimper Ever since the potato fields have been quoting T.S Eliot’s monotonous poems, the orc hordes of the Withering Warlord have been depressed, unwilling to rise arms against the bigoted human empire of Dorantia. Worse still, the Warlord’s trifling lieutenants have been quarreling, blaming each other in their petty attempts to grab more power for their tribe, leaving the agricultural orc town of Kartoffelheim incapable of feeding the greater war effort. It sucks to be an orc in these times. Tartaglia, the Warlord’s herald and buffoon, seeks true heroes to investigate the matter, find culprits or scapegoats and be done with them. Will you stand to save the nascent Orc Republics against the evil of humankind and their elfish toadies? At long last, here’s a chance to play from the Other Side’s perspective. Features the new bugbear, giant, orc, kobold, kobelf, goblinogre, hobgoblin, ling, potato people, potatomancer & zombingo classes and plenty of occasions to slaughter those wimpy elfs and humans.
