Living Kingdoms of Kalamar Campaign Information Briefing
INTRODUCTION Here in the introduction, we unravel one of the biggest mysteries of Living Kingdoms of Kalamar: “What is a Living® campaign?” A Living® Campaign is an organized role-playing campaign that is played simultaneously worldwide. Kenzer & Company, in conjunction with the Role-Playing Gamers Association (RPGA), directs the Living Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign. This campaign is played in many locations around the world of Tellene from our home in the Principality of Pekal to the southern jungles of the Vohven and the frigid northern wastes of the Wild Lands. Its plots, while maintained by the creative staff, are mainly the product of the wonderful imagination and hard work of our various authors and players. That's right, you are important to the Living Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign. What you do and with whom you talk make a difference in its long-term development. As the campaign progresses, more and more of our modules will be written with multiple endings. This means that players need not feel restrained from doing what they feel their character would do and what they feel the module expects them to. If you refuse to submit to the foreign diplomat’s insults in the middle of peace negotiations, then we want you to do what you feel is right. The world is truly Living and you can make the choices you feel appropriate, and experience the repercussions of your actions. Convention staff and tournament organizers can download scenarios from RPGA Headquarters. Kenzer & Company sanctions these scenarios and only sanctioned scenarios (along with the adventure modules approved for adaptation, found on the Living Kingdoms of Kalamar page) allow a character to gain experience and treasure.

The Maiden's Blackmoor
The Maiden’s blackmoor Rafael San Miguel Thurn and The Company of the MaidenMaiden Based on the works of Dave Arneson, Bob Bledsaw, James Mishler, David Ross, Robert Conley, Dustin Clingman, Ari Marmell, Scott Moore, Havard Faanes, and many others. First Draft: January 2010 Intentionally left Blank 2 “One day, a few years back, I discovered that I was bored.“ - It's with similar words that Dave Arneson, co-creator of world's most popular roleplaying game, used to describe why he began to put a work together that would, over the years, turn global gaming culture upside down. One could say, more or less, that it was the same gentle boredom that drove me, when I, over twenty-five years after the publication of Mr Arneson's first texts on pen-and-paper roleplaying, began to familiarize myself with his pet work, his setup for his own gaming adventures, the fantastic realm of Blackmoor. What follows, might be considered part of D&D's and Backmoor's collective history: Born out of a rather spontaneous idea, The Grim Winter became one of the most widely known play-by-post forum RPGs, even receiving the same hushed praise that only “The Great Old Ones”, legendary PbP campaigns like The Galen Saga , The World of Greyhawk -gaming boards or The Keep on the Borderlands PbP had been able to claim earlier. This was less my own accomplishment than the merit of my players; it was their ingenuity that saved the campaign from my often rather mediocre ideas, and it was their wit and dedication that kept the game worth refereeing for me.
