Buffalo Castle was the first solo adventure written for Tunnels & Trolls, and as far as we know, it was the first solo adventure written for any roleplaying game, and even came out before the "choose your own adventure" books. It was written by Rick Loomis in 1976 with art by LizDanforth. Now,FiveandaHalfTrollsisproudtopresent Return to Buffalo Castle, an adaptation of the venerable solo adventure for group play. Return to Buffalo Castle will require the Tunnels & Trolls v5.5 rulebook to play which may be purchased directly from Flying Buffalo Inc (at http://www.flyingbuffalo.com/tandt.htm).

Changes

The most obvious change from the original solo is in the way Return to Buffalo Castle stats the monstersandcrittersarrayedagainsttheDelvers.The original solo stated foes in Monster Rating (MR) format. Return to Buffalo Castle presents these adversarieswithfullstatistics.Themonstersappearing Forthosethatenjoycarefullycrafteddungeon within the rooms of the castle have remained ecologies, where everything makes sense...well, you

What Ognom needs of the Delvers is rather simple.TheWizardhasrecentlyinheritedalegendary castle;theinfamousBuffaloCastle!Thewizardwishes tolearnmoreabouthisnewacquisitionbeforeentering himself. Seeking suggestions, Ognom turned to his brotherandfellowwizard. Ognom'sbrotheradvises that Ognom hire a band of stout hearted Delvers to mapoutthecastleandclearitofanyresidualcritters,a tacticthatOgnom'sbrotherhasputtogooduseinthe pasttomapoutatowerhehadacquired. OgnomofferstopaytheDelvers50gpforeach roomtheymapaswellas100gpfor eachtrapthey unearth. In addition, they may keep any treasures found during their exploration of the castle. Ognom lets the delving band know that rumors and stories, culled from the tales of solitary Delvers that have braved the castle, would indicate that the castle is madeupof21rooms.

What About Room 17?

Rock-a-bye-bye If a Delver's ST + LK + IQ is less than the troll's ST + LK + IQ, the Delver is permanently turned to stone. Should the troll's combined attributes be less then the Delver's, then it is the troll that is turned to stone, but only until midnight. This spell-like ability costs the troll 15 ST points and has a range of 20'. Reconstr-yuch-tion Identical to a Slush Yuck spell (see T&Tv5.5; 2.22.4) and costs the troll 10 points of ST.

Room 5 (Disappearing Treasure Room)

A 30X30 foot room with a single door set in the eastern wall. The walls, ceiling, and floor are marked with ancient runes, most likely magical in nature. The room itself is filled with gold coins. The Delvers may pick up as many gold pieces as they wish, but for every 10 gp picked up a Wandering Monster roll should be made. Each Wandering Monster roll, successful or not, should be accompanied by a brilliant blue flaring of the inscribed magical runes...you know, just to heighten the tension! When a wandering monster appears, the magical runes upon the walls, ceiling, and floor will flare a bright red, after which all the remaining gold will disappear.

Room 6 (The Fountain Room)

This large room measures 50 feet X 50 feet, and holds three doors; one northbound and one eastbound, both leading deeper into Buffalo Castle, the third southbound, leading outside (this door is the easternmost of the three doors leading into Buffalo Castle). Entering this room from the southern door will spring a trap (see Trap A, below). At the centre of the room stands a large fountain. The fountain's water is magical and each Delver may drink from it once to benefit (or suffer) from the magical effects of the fountain's water. Drinking from the fountain will add or subtract from one of the drinker's attributes. Only one attempt may be made per Delver. When a Delver drinks from the fountain, the GM rolls 1D6. A result of 1-4 means points will be added to the drinker's attribute. A roll of 5 or 6 means points will be subtracted from one

Special Vulnerability to Sunlight A troll exposed to direct sunlight will be turned to stone or gold (roll 1D6, a result of 1-5 indicates it turns to stone, and a roll of 6 means it turns to gold). This lasts until midnight, after which the troll reverts back to its trollish self. Ole Stonewall At the cost of half the troll's ST, the troll may call forth a wall of 5

of the drinker's attributes. 1D6 is then rolled to determine how many points are added or subtracted, and a final 1D6 is rolled to determine which attribute benefits or suffers from the increase/decrease (A result of 1 = ST, 2 = IQ, 3 = LK, 4 = CON, 5 = DEX, and 6 = CHR).

Taking the tunnel towards Room 5 will require 3 Wandering Monster rolls.

Trap B (Trip Wire Trap)

Each Delver passing through this hallway must succeed in a L1SR vs LK or accidentally trigger the trip wire. If the trip wire is triggered, the walls will very quickly begin to close in on the Delvers. Very, very quickly! A L2SR vs DEX is required to run through the corridor before its walls close in on the Delvers. Failure means death as the stone walls crush any lagging party-members. The Delvers may opt to stick something between the encroaching walls in an attempt to slow or halt (GM discretion) the incoming walls. If weapons are used for this purpose, the weapons will most likely be damaged and will see their Adds decreased by 1.

Room 18 (Wandering Monster Room)

This 40'X20' room is occupied by monsters. The exact amount of monsters is equal to half the amount of Delvers. Roll on the WM table(s) to determine which monsters are found.
