Plot summary
The adventures in In Search of Adventure can be strung together in one of three new over arching plots (the adventure flow chart) depending on where the players head off from their starting point in the town of Threshold. These adventures are set in the Grand Duchy of Karameikos on the world of Mystara. While most of the adventures in this compilation are complete, most of the expansionary parts of The Lost City are missing.
