Hi guys,
I was wondering whether any of you could recommend a module to me which is like 'A Dance with Rogues' in terms of how the world interacts with the player character.
What I mean by this isn't necessarily the specifics of the module (i.e. young female character, rogue, adult content), but that the main character has defined looks, backstory and skills that are referenced by other characters and determine the kind of dialogue choices you get and actions you can take.
The problem is that the whole 'random adventurer shows up in a tavern looking for a worthy quest'-thing simply doesn't work for me. In trying to find other modules to play, even the highly praised ones often end up being of this type, which inevitably leads to dialogue and role play that is both too generic to be interesting and too specific to match any character you've made up for yourself.
So, are there any other modules that are like ADWR in this regard (and ideally somewhat lengthy and RP heavy)? Modules with some defined backstory (like in Baldur's Gate) might also be nice.
