The Coming of The Age of the Blood Imperator - Jason Vey's Rise of the Red God & WG4 The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun by Gary Gygax

 This blog post picks up from this blog post here, & it goes with the idea that the events of the  Amazing Adventures Day of the Worm is old history. The  ancient Heart of Yhtill has been found and its being examined by top men. But the fact that during pre World War two the heart was found & its been calling out to into the multiverse to the dead gods. And its this call that is answered by Ornduhl and marks the events within Jason Vey's Rise of the Red God.

The Thule Society is not only active & awake in Pulp 1980 but it has within its ranks serpent men who have been using their knowledge to reactivate the 'dead gods' pantheon. And this is also going to include Tharizdun. The Thule society will seek to bridge the dimensional gap between the temple of the red god and WG4 The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun by Gary Gygax.  Tharizdun's connection to the ancient primal chaos & the Abyss begs to be one of the power sources for the 'dead gods'. 

Reactivating the ancient pantheon of the 'dead gods' is a risky move by the serpent men to take the reigns of their ancient empire to bring it back in one bold move. But its still going to be a three sided war with the serpentmen, the PC's, the People of the Worm, and the unknown quality of the aliens. This makes it a very risky process for the PC's to interact with the serpent men. 
From their hidden valley they have been making overtures into the outside world through their agents from hidden valley in  I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981 

Where does this leave the Order of the Black Dragon Society!?! As an arm of the cults of the serpent men as we've talked about yesterday. During the Pulp 1980 days has the adventure elements of WG4 The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun by Gary Gygax taking place in the modern era. Add to this the events of Ornduhl in Rise of the Red God  & we've got a return to the Thurian era in apocalyptic fashion. 
Several organizations might be involved in trying to open the Dwarven seals that are holding the 'dead gods' patheon outside the planes of the multiverse. How & why is going to be coming up. 

Aftermath & Fallout from The 'Day of the Worm' & I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981 Amazing Adventures ! Rpg Campaign Update

 This blog post is going to pick up from this blog post here. What happens to  the ancient Heart of Yhtill after the events of  Amazing Adventures Day of the Worm which are history in our 1980's Pulp game. This adventure is tied into the Amazing Adventures! rpg beginning adventure Heart of Yhtill. This artifact may have slipped into the hands of 'top men' of the US government. But this still leaves out the fact that the 'People of the Worm' & many of the factions that were after the heart are still active in 1980. 

The  Ormazd Society is also more then a bit suspect & may have deeper ties to other occult organizations?! And there is also the fact that the Egyptian tomb found within the adventure may be a part of the late Roman occupation of Egypt. This could be one of the last real tombs from that period & have ties to other Roman influenced bits of the occult and this includes the serpent men. The serpent men are rivals of the 'People of Worms' especially for an occult object of power such as the Heart of Yhtill.
The serpent men in modern times will do anything to regain the position of their ancient empire. And this makes them all of the more dangerous & they are operating trying to hold on to any remains on the surface world aka  their lost valley of I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981.

This makes the serpent men all of the more dangerous because in 1980 their fighting a three sided war. The People of the Pit, the aliens, and the PC's who will be an unknown quality. Their hidden valley in  I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981 will offer clues to their hidden agenda for the outside world. But Amazing Adventures Day of the Worm offers a third party of outsiders who could play hard ball with the PC's. And that is a modern incarnation of the Thule Society. And during WWII the Thule Society may have reached the hidden South American valley of  I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981. The Thule society is a far bigger threat then the PC's realize. Because they have modern agents & thugs who can make life very difficult for the PC's. 
And all of this leads back to the fact that the serpent men have their own modern arm in the form of 'The Order of the Black Dragon' from the free adventure 'The Menace of the Serpent God' by Jason Vey.  'The order of the Black Dragon' has its own serpent men high priests at its head, super powered agents at the middle, & lower level thugs all to make the PC's lives Hell unless dealt with. 

Even if the players have played through  I1 Dwellers of the Forbidden City by David Cook from 1981 back in WWII both the Order of The  Black Dragon  & the Thule Society have kept tabs on the descendants of the player's PC's. These organizations are keeping their eys on them for the uncovering of any treasures or occult artifacts from the forbidden city. 
The forbidden city is still stands & is being used by the Order of The Black Dragon. It will be a target for our PC's.
