So I have three arcs to span my Dark Sun Campaign let me know what you think. I have the crown of dust arc which is about to get it's third adventure. I have my Political Pawn arc where the PC's serve Tithian of Tyr. Finally I have my House Tsalaxa arc where thye have been driven from Tyr by the PC's but are by far done in the region. My Main Stay Characters are a power Hungry Nobleman, a powerhungry defiler and a hippie Athas savin Shaman. I also have a smatterin of other characters who come and go. The focus has been on the shaman he will have aquired two pieces of the crown of dust and help an avagion awaken. However there are also rumors of the dark lens that can be used to make higher beings. On the way to that item they must delve into Kalaks ziggaruat to find information about it but some one is going to stumble upon an obsidian orb that actually contains the mind Kalak. If not carful this PC will start to become dominated by Kalak and could lose it all in his quest for power. Any thoughts let me know.

Well the defiler has not defiled in the presence of the shaman... He may have only defiled once even but he says he is a defiler...

I too am wondering how the defiler and the Hippie shaman get along.

also, is there a link between all three of your Arcs?
besides the characters that is

Well Tithian sent the PC pawns to the tomb of Damor Mador to recover treasure since the city coffers were dry. Here they ran into Hosue Tsalaxa and every agent of House Tsalaxa they enocuntered were killed. So a Changling (I wrote this before I realised the head of Tsalaxa in Tyr was a chngling mind u) who was an agent of house Tsalaxa posing as an agent of house Shom hired the PC's to go to the face in the stone and recove that piece of the crown of dust. On the way out they had a run in with Templars of Tyr dumping slaves for The dragon. Upon return to the city the crown was stolen by the changling and they suspected Tsalaxa and with the King's permission but not public backing they raided the merchant house and drove them from Tyr. So everything is interwoven as best as I can get it. Tithian using the PC's as tools and along the way they got the notcie of a diabliocal Merchant house who in turn drug them into the crown. Complicated I hope so. I like to lead many open plot threads so the PC's can choose where they go...
