Campaign Conversion Notes for D&D by Paul Elliott/Mithras
INTRODUCTION
These conversion notes are intended to be used for a regular Basic D&D game refereed by me, with my two young sons (9 and 12) as players. I've already introduced them to roleplaying, and through BD&D I want to introduce them to published games. Since they have a good grasp of, and a real interest in, English myths, legends and fairy tales, I intend to alter BD&D slightly to set it within a 'fantasy England' (the late 6th century - 580 AD). with some fantasy elements dotted around a vaguely historical Dark Ages setting. I have taken more than inspiration from Dragon Warriors, a ruleset published in the late-80's by Corgi, and written by Dave Morris and Oliver Johnson. That game most definately is set in a late-Dark Ages world and captures the feel well. We will be running many of the published Dragon Warriors adventures. The PCs are young heroes in a small Anglian kingdom struggling to survive against its northern neighbour and against the arcane power of a resurgent Morgana, Witch-Queen. King lla is ruler of Deira and will become a patron of the PCs. The arch-enemy of the PCs will be Morgana, the surviving enemy of King Arthur - dead these past fifty years. Each northern kingdom has a dragon standard. Morgana, the evil witch who was King Arthur's greatest enemy, is free. She had been imprisoned within Dinas Emrys, the magical hill beneath her father's old fortress by Merlin the magician. Fifty years later she is free from her prison, from the Cave of the Dragons where she was chained. And now she has vowed to conquer Arthur's realm, Britain, and to use all of her magical powers in that conquest. The evil queen has woken the dead to create a horrible undead army of skeletons, ghouls and zombies. Goblins, ogres, giants and other supernatural monsters have allied with her. Humans whether Saxon, Anglian, Briton, Pict or Welsh must fight her! It is AD 580. lla was the son of Yffe, the son of Uxfrea, the son of Wilgisl, the son of Westerfalca, the son of Sfugl, the son of Sbald, the son of Segegeat, the son of Swebdg, the son of Sigegar, the son of Wdg, the son of Woden. The campaign begins in North-East England. King lla siezed power in Jorvik in 560 and founded the kingdom of Deira (dee-ay-ra), in East Yorkshire. He is an Anglian warrior chief with two sons, thelric (the oldest) and Edwin (the youngest). He also has a daughter, Acha, about to be married to fierce warriorking thelfrith, ruler of the growing northern kingdom, Bernicia. His queen is called Gudrun, and King lla has a royal advisor, a monk of some standing currently converting the Anglians, called Paulinus. Player characters are retainers of King lla, warriors, clerics scouts and magic users who are loyal to the king and keen to ensure the survival of his kingdom, Deira.
CHARACTERS
Ability Scores
Roll six times. Select one to re-roll. Re-roll all ability scores if none are 12 or above.
Character Classes
There are certain changes to the available character classes. All are Good or Neutral. Choose from the following classes:
FIGHTER A warrior fighting for his lord, or members of mercenary bands. Use D&D Fighter as written. CLERIC A holyman and follower of God. The holyman has powers from God and helps those around him. One of his most important roles is to find and destroy monsters and other evil creatures. Recognised by the cross around his neck. Use D&D Cleric, but allow any weapon. THIEF A robber, bandit, thief and raider. Use the D&D Thief, but allow a d6 Hit Die. MAGIC USER An apprentice wizard, learning magical spells and seeking out items of power. Use the D&D Magic User but ignore any reference to 'spell books' and utilise the Magic Point system delineated below. ELF The elves are a Saxon/German creation, and part of the world of Saxon Britain. Elves live in many of the forests, but their centre in these islands is Alfheim, which is the greater part of Cymri. Use Elves as described in the D&D rulebook. DWARF Like elves, dwarves are also a Saxon/German creation. Niddafjoll is the home of these dwarves, a cavernous realm beneath the Peak District. Use the D&D Dwarf. HALFLING There are no Halflings.
Hit Points
Characters will normally begin the game with maximum Hit Points for that class (modified by Constitution), plus 4.
Money in Dark Age Britain appears as gold nobles and silver pennies which are the same as BD&D's Gold and Silver Pieces. Armour is much more expensive than in BD&D. Use the following prices: Item Chain Mail Armour Scale Armour Leather Armour Plate Armour Helmet Shield AC 6 7 8 4 (-1)* (-1)* Cost in gp 220 160 20 600 20 10
LANGUAGES
We shouldn't get too hung up on languages. This is fantasy, but sometimes a language barrier is a great way to emphasize the 'otherness' of some folk. Use this language list: English - This is the standard language of the Saxon or Anglian kingdoms. Latin - The old language of Rome, used by the Church and by administrators. Elvish - A secret language used by goblins, ogres, elves and other inhabitants of faerie Draconic - The ancient language of dragons. Pictish - The language of the wild northern tribes. Gaelic - The language of the Irish tribes. British - The language of the Western Lands: of Cymri, Rhegeth, Dumnonia, Strathcylde and other native British kingdoms.
RESOLVING TASKS
To resolve any type of non-combat task the player rolls either 3d6 (a challenge) or 4d6 (very difficult) and he must roll equal to or less than his character's relevant attribute (Str, Dex, Wis, etc.) to succeed. Thieves have a number of useful skills, when that character attempts a task using such a skill, he gets to add his character level to the attribute for the task roll.
MAGIC
Unlike the 'fire and forget' magic of BD&D, the magic in Dark Age Britain is handled slightly differently. When a magic-using character reaches a new level, he learns all of the spells for that level. Look at the spell lists given below. They follow the pattern in Dragon Warriors. A magic-using character can cast any spell from the list at his level (or lower), once or more than once per day. To determine how many spells a character can cast in a day, Magic Points are used. A spell costs a number of MP to cast equal to its level. When a character's Magic Points reaches zero he can cast no more spells. Expended Magic Points regenerate at precisely midnight. A durational spell can usually be terminated early by a magic using character, he must spend a combat round 'willing it' to do this, and he receives half of the Magic Points (rounded down) that he expended to cast it. Magic Points Level MP Useable/day 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 4 8 12 15 19 23 25 28 31 35
COMBAT
Unless surprised (1 or 2 on d6), the player characters go first in combat, followed by the monsters. A surprised opponent will still make an attack roll (see below) but will not inflict any damage if he wins. The combat procedure differs to that presented in D&D, but plugs in all the same numbers and comes out with very similar outcomes. Only the hidden mechanics are different, and they are different to speed up the procedure. To Hit - both combatants roll. The highest wins and inflicts damage

Rolling 20 A natural roll of 20 when attacking gives the PC either maximum damage, or a free attack on an adjacent target.
Experience
This is a low-level campaign. High level, equal to great champions and kings is 6. Above that, any character will be fundamental to the gameworld. King lla is rank 3. King thelfrith of Northumbria is rank 5. Morgana is a rank 8 Magic User. Paulinus the missionary from Rome, is a 5th level cleric. Characters gain XP for treasure (1 GP = 1 XP) and for defeating monsters. The Dark Ages were a time of plunder and raiding where treasure mattered and motivated armies as well as individuals. Status and honour also mattered, and the greatest way to improve one's status in this heroic culture was to do well in war and to defeat your enemies. A giant-killer is respected, a great warrior or hero. And in this game character level works as a social measure, with the Cha modifier coming into play to modify it either up or down. Therefore, the more treasure you gain and monsters you defeat, the greater respect in society you have. This is how the heroic society of the Dark Ages worked.

The Giant's House Wade the Giant has destroyed a wizard's tower, the apprentice reaches the king to tell him. The PCs go with him to recover a magical crystal ball from Wade's Hall (.the Bridestones on the other side of the Shadowed Woods). A Shadow on the Mist Beorn, one of lla's trusted warriors has the PCs look for a lost
thelric is involved, the PCs help him. The river is the Idle that leads up into the Dales and to Malham Cove/Ingelborough Cave.
The Sins of the Fathers The king's eldest son, thelric, requires protection during a hunting trip into the Shadowed Wood.. The trip takes them to the hidden barrow of Garambar. It ends badly.

The Castle of Terror Inside the Duke's castle in the Grey Hills. Wrecker Island Looking for the third crystal on Lindesfarne.
Wharram The player characters are young men or teenagers in the small village of Wharram, on the rolling hills of Deira (East Yorkshire). The capital is Jorvick, around twenty miles west of there. They are out hunting rabbits, and return home early due to a terrible storm approaching, the sky is black as night and seems to be moving
against the wind. Wind and rain soon blasts the village, and sheltered in their longhouses, the PCs hear the bell of St Martin, the church at the foot of the village, near the fish pond. When they investigate, skeltons appear out of the graveyard to attack, and they might see burly farmers being hacked to pieces. A giant emerges out of the storm, Wade, a local giant no-one has seen for generations. He smashes the church roof in, and proceeds to lift up the thatches of the longhouses looking for something. Nothing can stop him. Watching the mayhem is a swirling cloud of lights, and Morgana can be seen watching the proceedings - although she is really remote and aloof in her castle. An uncle of one of the PCs gives them a bag containing a very large gold ring, and he tells them to "hurry to Jorvik, take it to the king". The ring is the item Wade searches for, the finger ring of his father, a ring of protection +1. Jorvik Hopefully most of the PCs get to Jorvik alive. The king will see them once they show the ring. He takes it from them, and gives them shelter. He has an advisor, Paulinus, a wise monk, who explains what is unfolding. Morgana is loose, she has unleashed the horrors of hell, the undead, and the dragons. She wants Britain, and she has allies who are willing to help Wade is one of those allies. She has set up in an invisible faerie castle on the Northern Moors, this battle is between the Deiran's and Morgana. But she will be prepared to devastate the kingdom to get what she wants. The people around must be brought into the walls of the fort, it must be turned into a well prepared, well fortified defense against her undead army. It is here that the PCs make a choice about their futures. They are given various people whom they can follow and learn from. Paulinus, cleric; Aethelric, prince and army leader; Herla, the royal huntsman and military scout; or Silvanus, the wizard who also has a lonely tower to the north-west of Jorvik, at Aldborough (the Old Tower).
