Gary Gygax passed away this week, shocking the geek world and sending a cascade of remembrances surging across the web. My gaming group is no less saddened by this, and in honor of Gygax, we took a one-week break from our campaign to run the classic 1st edition module, White Plume Mountain.

Technically, we’re not running that exact module. Instead, I’m going to use the 3rd edition conversion that Wizards of the Coast posted to their web site a while back. We'd originally thought of doing it using 1st edition rules, but with me at DrupalCon all week I didn't have time to re-read the 1st edition ruleset and prep the dungeon.
