Sanctuary is a good place to start, though you'll have to actually spend some time re-working most of the characters, since they have enormously inflated attribute totals (they had to, in order to have all the skills in the books, under the old rules). Alas, my complete set disappeared in the long-ago, and I only have one (or perhaps two) of the books now, and none of the maps. Getting a complete copy seems a bit pricey nowadays! Still, as I recall, it was a very good setting package and really well done. (Though the TFT stats were a bit short in terms of some of the characters and unique creatures; so you'll still have to make some of them up from scratch!) |

Re: TFT Campaign Ideas
I've started a kind of west marches style game that takes place in a version of cidri where the inside of the world is a Dyson sphere made by the mnoren. Adding SF stuff like making all the elementals and demons brings made by the mnoren to regulate the planet and its features.
The players are part of a group of people that were transported inside the world to escape their country's destruction and are now exploring this strange inside out world with the backwards horizon. |

Re: TFT Campaign Ideas
What automated support do people need with NPC generation? Figuring out which skills go together with each other is a lot easier than crafting coherent histories to match. I kind of figure that it is the GM's job to backtrack a random encounter to what caused all of this.

What I would love to see for TFT is a book a little bit like Foes - a 2E Runequest supplement Chaosium published in the early 80's. Original Runequest is a little like TFT when it comes to the level of information you would like to record for a fleshed out NPC (well, RQ is probably a factor of 2-3 harder, but we're in the same ball park). I find it incredibly helpful when I'm running RQ that I can just leaf through the book and find a page with a dozen dark trolls of intermediate experience, etc. I think a human would probably need to write such a book. |

Re: TFT Campaign Ideas
I often prefer making things up at the moment, and usually only make up enough stuff to get through the situation at hand
When I plan ahead too much, I often get in my own way |
