"Come on," they said. "It won't be so tough, just stopping a slavery ring," they said. "I don't know," you said. "Those slaves aren't even entirely human! How do we know they won't try to kill us?" But you went, and now you're having second thoughts. There were the thieves in the lost crypts of Empyrea, raising hundreds of—no, that's too disturbing to think about. There were the three dragons who—no, that's too painful to remember too. Now there's this egg of the Phoenix. What does that have to do with anything? This was supposed to be a cut-and-dried stop-the-slavers job. Who said anything about retrieving lost artifacts?

Publication History[edit]

I12 Egg of the Phoenix was designed by Frank Mentzer, with additional design, development, and editing by Paul Jaquays. The module's cover is by Keith Parkinson, and was published by TSR in 1987 as an eighty-page book, a twenty-page booklet, and an unattached outer folder. The booklet contains a map and pre-generated PCs. This module was a linkage of three formerly unlinked scenarios originally published in the RPGA modules R1 through R4.
