Seeking a humorous adventure, thought to be from Pyramid 3
I recall an adventure set in an Arabian setting, with a sheikh's daughter in love with a mortician's apprentice, and the PCs disguising themselves as harem members (regardless of gender or relatively hairiness, etc.). At one point, the grand feast serves up a dish of an animal-within-animal-within-animal-within-animal.
One of the last passages of the adventure gives the PCs an extra character point if they deduce, from the events of the adventure, some tongue twister similar to "the sixth sheikh's son is sick". Does anybody remember where this is from? |

Edit: this has been solved. It was in the Pyramid Dungeon Collection, p.118. Adventure was named The Torturer's Apprentice and worth the cost of purchasing the PDF alone.

Re: Seeking a humorous adventure, thought to be from Pyramid 3
Thanks for the heads-up. I missed it in the Pyramid Dungeon Collection. The original version was already very good and it's nice to have an expanded, properly layouted version. I still think fondly of running the game at the con. Everybody was very much enthused by the downright silly fantasy.
