Missing Cartography

BV General, Page 62: There are four 1-paragraph descriptions of adventure sites around Burdock's Valley that aren't actually in the module. DMs should either prepare these adventures or screen their rumour tables to eliminate references to them. There's nothing like hearing rumours of juicy treasure away from the well-travelled Halls themselves to whet a player's appetite, and it would be a shame to have to cut them off because the module left it all for future expansion.

BV General, Page 62: One of the adventure sites, the Ibis's Roost, contains unspecified information about and maps of portions of the Halls. If you're including this adventure site, you'll need to draw up some additional maps as handouts too. Sections of Levels 2 and 3 would be good starting points, though maps to the now-corrupted temple complex on Level 5 could be an interesting inclusion as well.

AV General, Page 86: The surface ruins have a number of tables for what might be found scouring unkeyed sections of the ruins. Tables 6 and 7 both include treasure maps, so you should prepare at least two.

AV General, Page 86: Table 9 isn't even a random table - if you are directed to "roll on Table 9" you need to create your own sub-level of the dungeon and connect it to the existing levels and sublevels somehow. Create at least one such sub-level up front; alternatively replace this with a monster lair except when pre-rolling special sites below.

AV 17, Page 91: The old forum ha a bespoke table for searching its ruins. That table includes a "badly worn map (GM's choice)". Prepare another treasure map.

[AV 37, Page 101]: Each of these remaining structures has a higher chance of finding two "special" results from the searching the ruins tables, which could include treasure maps. Pre-roll the search results for each structure, and prepare any additional maps required.

Pre-Rolling Opportunities

AK-22, Page 71: The main markets have a random chance of specialty items or magic items available from travelling peddlars. Determine which ones are available up-front.

AK-25, Page 72: Creon's shop has a chance of having a few magic items on hand that he doesn't yet know are magic. Determine whether there are any, and what items they are.

EX General, Page 76: The nighttime encounters list "visitors to the Forum of Set"; pre-roll 1-2 groups of visitors to include in the random table here. (Or as needed if you already pre-roll random encounters).

AV General, Page 87: Every book or scroll has some kind of additional detail needed such as what spell is on the scroll. Pre-roll and detail a few entries from this table.

AV General, Page 87: Treasure caches may have traps or monsters. Pre-roll some number of complete caches - treasure and guardians.

AV-3, Page 88: Each of the towers may or may not be intact, but that should be visible from a distance. Pre-roll all of the towers so you can adaquately describe their state from a distance.

AV-22, Page 94: The Sign of the Broken Head may host from 1-3 peddlars, each of which has a chance to carry "something unusual". Pre-roll several merchants and what, if any, unusual goods they carry.

AV-37, Page 101: Each of these remaining structures has a higher chance of finding two "special" results from the searching the ruins tables, which could include treasure maps.

AV-40, Page 103: Craastinistorex has a Beaker of Plentiful Potions. Pre-roll how many potions it will produce, and which ones. (There's also an Alexia's Useful Pole - decide whether it has three lengths or four). EDIT: There's also a Ring of Spell Storing, which in AD&D stores specific spells. Pre-roll the class of the ring and the specific spells it contains.

Missing Details

AK-3, Page 66: There are fifty unnamed NPCs in the bathhouse. You won't need to name all of them, but it would be good to have a few from each general category (servants, visitors, prostitutes) if you plan to use the bathhouse much.

AK-6, Page 67: The Hill of the Gods may or may not have visiting priests of gods without major temples in Gosterwick. Draw up a small roster of priests to rotate through.

AK-11, Page 68: This residence has a "large collection of loose gems" present; decide how many and how valuable they are if your PCs are looking for a heist.

AK-16, Page 69: "Verr's Plums" are apparently excellent courtesans, but none of them are named or detailed. If they're that famous they at least deserve names!

As an aside something like 2% of this town's population are sex workers, but none of them are detailed in any way.

AV General, Page 85: Table 4 for Searching the Ruins could include a tiny petrified adventurer. Create an NPC stat block, and decide whether they were shrunk with shrink item or with a Rudishva Useful Palm.

AV General, Page 86: Table 6 may include "GM's Choice" of key; choose what it unlocks. It may also have a scrap of parchment with a code on it, choose what that ties into. (The rumour tables, or failing that tombs and captives, can provide some options).

AV-7, Page 89: No weight is listed for the massive hand of Arden from the statue by the bridge. Figure out how much the complete statue weighs and fill for each piece.

AV-22, Page 93: No weight is listed for the massive head of Arden used as the inn's sign.

AV-35, Page 101: The barge contains "1-4 more keys", decide how many and what they unlock.

AV-40, 42, and 43: Similarly the statue of Vul is also missing its weight, though it's in fewer pieces. Sort out what each of these pieces weighs.

Expansion Opportunities
