Planet Eris: Emancipation of the Golden Dragon

Planet Eris is an ongoing OD&D White Box (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yxf0tGcxTSo/TiRyTH_Y7tI/AAAAAAAAAtU/zUpfPGW8x2E/s1600/ODD-WhiteBox.jpg) campaign that uses the Planet Eris (http://files.meetup.com/286932/Planet-Eris-House-Rules-Revised.pdf) house rules. Emancipation of the Golden Dragon is a dungeon adventure for beginning & experienced players, run by DM Nathan Jennings. New characters will be created at the table before play begins. Returning characters from other Planet Eris games are also welcome.

A chance encounter with golden dragons is unpredictable at best, but these two want to recruit your party. Appearing in human form, they explain that one of their own has been captured by Mormadock, an evil wizard. The Dungeon of Mormadock is a twisted living laboratory where exotic monsters are housed and harvested in wicked experiments and bizarre alchemical research. The evil wizard is bent upon chaotic domination and he believes he holds the key!

But he needs one more ingredient to perfect his formula: he must harvest the dragon parts of a living Golden Dragon. He has captured one, but it wisely refuses to take dragon form and allow such harvesting. It is ancient, strong in its own magic, and therefore highly resistant to the wizard's ordinary magic. Mormadock is therefore off on dimensional explorations in order to find what he needs to force the golden dragon to his will.

Now, the other two golden dragons explain, is the time to mount a daring rescue. The wizard is absent, but his dungeon is active and garrisoned. It will take a carefuly planned attack by a crack team of seasoned dungeoneers. Are you the right ones for this mission?
