In the Clutches of Torrik

Episode 99 of Eamon
RPG
1985

About the Story

You received a letter from your friend, Jason, stating he is in big trouble! He was riding through the providence of Darland when he was stopped by the forces of the Governor and questioned. He says he lost his temper and smarted off. Big mistake, this governor apparently is somewhat of a tyrant.

Now Jason needs some gold to pay his fine and court costs which comes to 5,000 gold pieces! He asks you to bring some gold and free him before he goes crazy. If you are going to try to spring him (rather than pay these butchers), be careful!

This adventure is part of the Eamon universe. Like all Eamon adventures, it is an RPG-style game, mostly using a two-word parser. Because Eamon is a modular system, you may bring a character and equipment from other adventures into this one.

It has an interesting variation on a theme of infiltrating an enemy castle which seems to offer ways to reduce combat, but in practice I don't think that things happen in exactly the manner that John intended. I didn't notice much difference in the play when I followed the variation and when I didn't.
