I wanted to give the new players im playing with a more imursive experience, and ill be playing The keep on shadowfell. as far as hook go its simple, but i wanted to go further than the norm, so i created a letter that would be normally given as a hand out and decided to mail it to a couple players in the group as thier individual hook. then that opened up some creative gates and i cam up with another way to get the other shared hook to the rest of the group. i present The Adventurer's Gazette. s245.photobucket.com/user/dustinprewitt/library/dnd%20fresh?sort=4&page=1The letter will be mailed to two players, and the gazette will be mailed to all player, via us mail, my idea was to catch the ppl off guard by creating red envelopes with gold lettering, inside will be a copy of the gazette, and a second letter will come to the others in a blue envelope with gold lettering. the return address with be the name of the persons charactor instead of my, to add to the mystery. i could be going a bit to far. let me know what you think. i tried to add some humor here and there. hopefully it worked.

Nice idea - I believe things like this are great to keep players up to date and looking forward to the next game.

I love what you did! As a player, I would love to get something like this in the mail, and as a DM, I will probably steal your idea. Sorry!

Nice looking hand outs! I like to give hand outs to my players as well as I think it adds something extra to the game!

Voduchyld, its all yours, i planned to use the joke article about the pageant winner half orc as a hook if they asked about it. like they can go off and hunt her down for the slaying of the scribe, i wrote it first as a joke then thought hey i can use that. these all pertain to the keep on shadowfell published campaign. the letter its self from dovan is also one of the hooks in the prewritten. enjoy
