Overview
Puppets is an adventure module published by TSR in 1989 for the fantasy role-playing game Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.
Plot summary
The module details a linear, cross-country, convoy-guard adventure. Puppets is a two-part scenario, in which the player characters first encounter an evil leprechaun while in the Gnarley Wood, and then must investigate tiny burglars in the Free City of Dyvers. This small-town adventure takes place as the PCs hunt for clues to the plot's central mystery.
Publication history
WG11 Puppets was the 11th scenario in the World of Greyhawk adventure line, adapted from two scenarios previously run as RPGA (Role Playing Game Association) tournaments. It was written by Vince Garcia and Bruce Rabe, with artwork by Clyde Caldwell, Allen Nunis, and David Sutherland III and cover art by Clyde Caldwell, and editing and development by Jim Lowder. It was published by TSR in 1989 as a 32-page booklet with an outer folder.
Reception
In the June 1990 edition of Games International (Issue 15), the reviewer pointed out that this adventure "is adapted from two tournament modules, and it shows. If you like the kind of scenario where you can tell what's going to happen by reading the back of the module, you'll love this." The reviewer also noted that "it is more cerebral than combat."
