Christopher Painter
Behind the Rose
Universal/ AD&D 2nd
Adventure

Behind the Rose is an adventure for 3 to 5 characters, level 8 to 10. Portions of the adventure take place in a neutrally-aligned woodland area, called the Stalk Forest, as well as in a tiny human settlement within the forest, the village of Ash. The middle section of the adventure will find the characters searching the ancient towering ziggurat for a precious fluid in a remote jungle area. The GM should locate these areas in his world as he sees fit.


What is this worth?

I learned that this adventure contains 23 pages and was published in 1992 by Sage Lore Productions.  The author wrote at least two other adventures, P1: Sweet Wall of Death, and P2: Gladestrom, both produced by Underworld Publishing in 1992.  Neither of these received great reviews.  Behind the Rose originally sold for $6.95.  My guess is that it's worth $20 or less.    8)


Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Thanks, I found this old thread on it which supports a value of 25 or less.

Now that we've established its worth, isn't anyone going to explain the symbolism of the cover illustration?
