Three Nine Digest #19
This week I have been mostly thinking about⦠my Mausritter adventure (Fast Show reference in case anyone is as ancient and British as I am).
Below is what Iāve collected from previous dispatches regarding my adventure hooks, npcs and the spell Iāve made. The bit thatās new is the spell token, which includes a spell tablet I drew (yep, continuing with my audacious plan to draw this entire adventure myself).
Iām putting all these in one spot because my next step will be harvesting them and putting them in my project on Affinity. At first I am going to stay pretty true to how the adventures are laid out in the excellent The Estate collection. Iāll probably fiddle with things once thatās done and make it more my own.
For now, though, hereās the state of play for Goodnight Maus.

Adventure Hooks
Pick or Roll 1D6
The youngster Hamish Quickfoot has not been seen since he ventured off in search of fortune in the Great Green Room. His parents are offering a reward for anyone who can bring him home safely.
Toliver Thickwhisker, Burgher of Under-Step, has commissioned a party to raid the toy house in the Great Green Room. He wants silverware (six places) for an important dinner he is hosting for visiting dignitaries.
Legend has it that the ancient, and magical, arms of Lady Strongbite are located somewhere in the Great Green Room. Her saga states she fell to Rupert, the great orange menace who once called that room home.
The rats of the Wall Gang control the routes in and out of the Great Green Room. They have just raised the price of their tolls. Under-Stepās city council have commissioned a party to scout the room and find alternatives.
The engineer Tink Finetail has designs on an underground engine that could connect Under-Step to Drainās Hollow. Heāll pay a premium for clockwork mechanisms, the kind known to exist in the Great Green Room.
During a rowdy night at the Weevilās Head pub bets were taken on whether there was a mouse in Under-Step brave enough to bring home a whisker from Tabitha and Tomasina (the young, but cruel descendants of Rupert, who now stalk the Great Green Room).
