DCC Murt’s Miscalculations Interior Art Part 1


Murt's Miscalculation


Twenty-five years ago, Murt, a humble storekeeper, was abducted one evening by Extraterrestrials.  The Aliens did experiments on Murt and enhanced his intelligence by implanting nano-microchips in his brain.  After his abduction, Murt developed a fascination in the areas of astronomy, interdimensional travel, theoretical physics, and mathematics.   Murt’s fascination in these subjects caused his fellow villagers question his sanity.  “There will be a day to come…”, Murt told himself, “When my knowledge will save the entire village.”

This day finally came when the Village of Greenleaf was teleported to an interdimensional prison.  The villagers were held captive until the Woman in Black, the vile fiend who trapped the village, returned to devour their souls.  Murt understood the physics behind the Woman in Black’s interdimensional prison and knew that it was necessary to open a portal to the Woman in Black’s lair before she could regain her full strength.  It was a race against the clock for Murt as he built the portal.  After 5 days of endless work, Murt completed the portal, which allowed a band of adventures to enter the Woman in Black’s lair and defeat her, freeing the Village Greenleaf.

The long hours of work did take a tool on Murt.  As a result, Murt made a miscalculation in the return coordinates for Greenleaf.  Instead of arriving back home to the present, the Village of Greenleaf was transported 15,000 years to the past...  A new and exciting world of adventure awaits YOUR PLAYERS in Murt’s Miscalculation.

I am in the process of writing a third-party compatible Dungeon Crawl Classics  adventure titled ‘Murt’s Miscalculation’, which builds on The Cat and the Resurrection, an adventure module I am in the final stages of completing. ‘Murt’s Miscalculation’ is a 3rd Level adventure designed for a party of 6 to 10 characters.  I have completed some of the interior art pieces (pencil and paper drawings) for this adventure.

Early Humans, Dwarves and Halflings. ‘Murt’s Miscalculation’ takes place 15,000 years in the past, where humans, dwarves and halflings look different than their modern-day counterparts.  Human look closer to their elven ‘parents’; dwarves are much hairier; and halflings are more feral and temperamental.
