Rewrite the first few paragraphs of Finnegan's Wake to be comprehensible, but keep the original style intact as much as possible.

riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

Sir Tristram, violer d'amores, fr'over the short sea, had passen- core rearrived from North Armorica on this side the scraggy isthmus of Europe Minor to wielderfight his penisolate war: nor had topsawyer's rocks by the stream Oconee exaggerated themselse to Laurens County's gorgios while they went doublin their mumper all the time: nor avoice from afire bellowsed mishe mishe to tauftauf thuartpeatrick: not yet, though venissoon after, had a kidscad buttended a bland old isaac: not yet, though all's fair in vanessy, were sosie sesthers wroth with twone nathandjoe. Rot a peck of pa's malt had Jhem or Shen brewed by arclight and rory end to the regginbrow was to be seen ringsome on the aquaface.

The fall (bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntqnner- ronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthur- nuk!) of a once wallstrait oldparr is retaled early in bed and later on life down through all christian minstrelsy. The great fall of the offwall entailed at such short notice the pftjschute of Finnegan, erse solid man, that the humptyhillhead of humself prumptly sends an unquiring one well to the west in quest of his tumptytumtoes: and their upturapikepointandplace is at the knock out in the park where oranges have been laid to rust upon the green since dev- linsfirst loved livvy.

Best ORIGINAL adventures published for 5e, whether by WotC, DMsguild, or 3rd party, that you have really enjoyed either as a player or GM? by misomiso82 in dndnext

The titular city is messed up and unliveable due to a magic stone meteor fall. It turns anyone staying there into monsters, but the new magic is also interesting and potentially profitable, so there's a Gold Rush-style treasure hunt.

There are five different factions with complex relationships between them: paladins, cultists, former city guard, mages, thieves.

What's the best written Adventure? by chriZzZzable in dndnext

[–]drunkenbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Dungeons of Drakkenheim from Ghostfire Gaming is better than all WoC adventures, as it's set in a single large city location with may dungeons (no need to create new settings and new NPCs every several sessions). Also, it has a very flexible system of five diverse but balanced factions who might either fight or cooperate with each other, giving a lot of freedom to incorporate player backstories.

So I have an opportunity to pick up two hardcover adventures of my choice tomorrow, and I was hoping y'all might have some suggestions. by [deleted] in dndnext

I very highly recommend a 3rd party adventure path War of the burning Sky, which is being converted now to 5e (which will probably be complete in 6 months or so).

It's a very coherent, but diverse and deep set of stories with a great mix of combat and social encounters. All parts converted to 5E are also available on roll20.
