It will be treacherous, it will be challenging and it will be deadly to the foolish or un-prepared. Although the original B2 publication was generic in terms of setting, the 1999 Return module placed the Keep in Yeomanry, making it a canonical location in. That said, I will try and preserve the module in all its brutal glory. A sequel, the Return to the Keep on the Borderlands (1999) for 2nd edition AD&D, was set twenty years after the events of the original module, and featured a fully re-stocked Caves of Chaos. This allows my players (and me) to gain the benefits of decades of game design advancements as far as mechanics are concerned. While I will be running the original B2-The Keep On The Borderlands module, I will be using the 5th edition of the Dungeons & Dragons rule set.
But alas, we never did clear the Caves of Chaos… it would seem that evil in the end won the day.ĭecades later, our brave adventurers will return to finish what they started – well, accomplish what they did not all those years ago – total subjugation of the Caves of Chaos and finally bring peace to the Borderlands.
It seems like it was just yesterday when we opened up that red box and began our adventures into the Caves of Chaos! The back and forth of us venturing from the Keep to slay evil lurking the in caves (and making a bit of coin in the process) kept us occupied for many, MANY hours. Keep on the Borderlands came out of print in the early 1980s, but was reprinted. Welcome to where it all began for me and my crew – The Keep on the Borderlands! Shit, this is back when they were old-school adventures old-school.
