Goonie's World

Travelling with the Flat-Faced People, the two Real People take part in a ritual and drink a sacred tea. Ghaagalk feels the love, while Doof has his mind greatly expanded. Afterwards, they’re taken to meet with a wise leader known as the Plungar. He presents them with an unexpected gift and tells them the location of the sky metal, a land inhabited by giants.  

After a battle with the Hairy People, Doof and Ghaagalk enter the wide-open plain as they continue south on their quest for the sky metal, risking their lives against stampeding herds and stalking predators. Just when they think death is an eventuality, help arrives, but it looks and sounds like nothing they’ve encountered before.

When a fireball is seen streaking over their village, misfits Doof and Ghaagalk are ordered by their clan’s grandfather to search the forest and fetch an owl pellet, which will be used for divination. Successful, the two return home and are then, to the surprise of all, given a much more important and perilous quest: retrieve the precious sky metal.

A falconer, Addison Cooper, and a jester, Gregory Blake, are sent by their master, Lord Salisbury, to attend a Yuletide feast at the castle of his rival, Lord DeCoucey of Kent. Also in attendance will be King Richard II and his sister, Princess Mary, whom Salisbury and DeCoucey both hope to wed. Their orders are to embarrass DeCoucey in front of the princess and everyone, thereby eliminating the competition. The method of humiliation is left entirely up to their own creativity, and there’s a great reward if they should succeed.

Believing that his beloved captain may be dead, Dweich rests onboard Dick Starhopper’s ship, the Quantum Piledriver, until he meets Dick’s wife who attempts to seduce him under false pretenses. Eventually, Dick reveals his true intentions, and things grow tense. Just in the nick of time, the AstroGlide finally catches up, and Buck mounts an attack.

After passing out from a surprise gas attack, Dweich wakes up imprisoned in Black Soul Patch’s secret base, and Buck finds himself back on his own ship. While Buck and Flurf rush to Dweich’s rescue, they have no idea that they may, once again, be headed into a devious trap. However, what BSP doesn’t know is that Buck isn’t the only man coming for Dweich, and he’s got his own entirely different plans.  

Captain Buck Goodsense and First Mate Dweich Stevens, joined by furry alien Flurf, stop at a space station for some R&R when they receive a call concerning a derelict mining ship that could be carrying valuable cargo from a nearby asteroid. Since their names were specifically requested, the space adventurers wonder if they're being lured into a trap. Ultimately, they decide there’s only one way to find out.   [OPTIONAL: Lasers & Feelings #1-3]

Dressed as a washerwoman, Petey pushes a laundry cart concealing Nick into the fort, attempting to avoid suspicion from the guards while searching for Two Toes. Finally, after some challenges, their pirate partner is unchained, but the trio must scheme and swashbuckle their way out. Little do they know that even if they escape the garrison, their lives may already be doomed along with Port Royal.  

With Nick as the captain, the pirates set sail for Jamaica, and Petey gets his first taste of rum. Not soon after, another ship is spotted off the starboard side, and the pirates do what they do best, resulting in a fierce maritime melee. Eventually, they put in at Port Royal and promptly split up, each independently gathering intelligence on the whereabouts of their captured mate.  

After a devastating shipwreck, two 17th century English pirates, Nicholas Nibble and Petey Tweed, cling to debris in the shark infested Caribbean Sea, separated from their friend and fellow pirate “Two Toes” Ramsey. Before long, they float up to the rocky shores of an unknown island, where they quickly discover they are not alone.    

The sleepyheads wake up and continue to move from one strange room to the next until they ultimately find themselves staring at a sphere swirling with blue smoke, overseen by statues of Elven warriors. Suspecting the sphere may be the heart of the tower’s power, the heroes decide to shatter it and face the chaotic consequences.   

After a skirmish with scarabs, the party is transported to another room of the tower where they must survive encounters with a fungus and a flute. The way out leaves them separated, with T-Gunn under the influence of a powerful sleeping spell and the others fighting venomous snakes. Dirk and Randolfus eventually join the Dwarf and give in to a deep drowsiness but not before startling secrets are shared which could forever alter the relationships of the party.     

Having caught a Skinchanger literally red-handed, the do-gooders have a close-quarters quarrel, and afterwards, start a campfire. At last, the night of the full moon arrives and with it the fully materialized tower, a blue portal welcoming them in. The interior presents more portals and more peril.  

Accompanying Inquisitor Randolfus to the tiny village of Carbuncle, Dirk Buckleheight and T-Gunn Stormstone help investigate suspicious goings-on involving a forbidding tower that only seems to show up during the full moon. Upon meeting the villagers, it becomes evident that the tower is not the only thing strange about Carbuncle.   [OPTIONAL: Shadow of the Demon Lord 1-10]
