Hello everyone, I’ve been scouring the vaults for a while without success, so let’s see if the community can help with this one (man, I’m getting old…)
I’ll try to give as many details as I can 'cause unfortunately I can’t recall anything at all about the title.
The module was a pretty big epic saga (most probably a three-parter) that brought the player up to lvl 40, altho I am unsure if it started at lvl 1 or higher.
It required CEP.
It featured a celestial female companion that at some point saves your life and wakes you up in a desert setting (this happened when already at very high levels, past 20). In said desert, I also remember a sort of chase-scene with a red dragon that pesters your for a while with flames while flying off-screen, before finally landing for a melee fight.
Towards the final chapters it also featured a demonic companion (possibly a reformed succubus?) which didn’t conflict with the angelic one. At that point most fights were probably with high level demons.
I remember an astounding display of terrain somewhere midgame: it was basically a small map that existed only to access a structure in the middle (possibly a tower?), but it was built like this incredible mountain ravine, with slopes up and down everywhere like I had never seen before in the standard game (which always looked very “polygonally” cut, with very straight edges and angles).
And… that’s it I fear. I know it’s not much, especially considering that I can’t recall anything about the main plot, but I’d really love to be able to find it again!
Sounds interesting. Some of your content sounds like Aielund. (Epic - the saving of life, wake up in the desert - The pestering dragon). But an angelic companion??
I don’t recall ever seen a module with an angelic companion. So I want to see that too.
@Mmat yeah Aielund and Sands of Fate were my first guesses and I did play those two back then as well, but apart from the epic scope nothing else matched my foggy memories of it.
@Surazal that’s a very strong candidate! I was watching a youtube playthrough of it and I definitively remember those companions. I couldn’t find the other bits tho, so I’m starting to wonder if I did a pastiche in my head of different modules… Especially with the CEP graphics parts (like that wild mountain terrain I mentioned, for example).
Tales of Arterra sounds right to me. If I recall correctly (I played it a long time ago), Persey is a basically a “reformed succubus,” and Evanine eventually evolves into a celestial.
Yeah that’s why I think I’m probably mixing up some mods… The videos I watched definitively hit the right spots companion-wise, but I must have played something else in the same era that had a lot of cool CEP features that must have impressed me just as much, but hell knows what THAT was lol
