Dungeons and Dragons – Mystara
Adventures in AC 1001 – School Assignment – Spies of Arcanium
Mayflies of the Fair
Source: The Principalities of Glantri (gaz3)
This adventure was originally part of the Basic Adventures section of Gazetteer 3 – Principalities of Glantri which I modified and one of the changes to be investigated as part of the Wrath of the Immortals storyline.

This features in the following sections:
- Gazetteer – Glantri
- Timeline
- AC 1001 – School Assignment – Spies of Arcanium. 15th Yarthmont (05) while on assignment from the Great School of Magic you are asked to investigate a series of book thefts in Glantri City.
The Original Concept
“This book is a classic in the series. It’s about this famous spy mission during Arcanium. A large number of visiting wizards complained that their scrolls and books were stolen during the night, often after demonstrations in the Halls of Arcanium. They blamed the Mayflies of the Fair, lowly thieves of magic. The constabulary, incapable of finding the culprits, hired a group of adventurers to do their spying.
“The spies discovered that the Mayflies were not to blame – this time – but instead, the Peoples’ Spell-Casters Company was involved. The spies managed to enter the secret headquarters of the Company and find what their new plan was. They’d gathered all this new magic and were thinking of raiding the Great School of Magic while most wizards were out to Arcanium. After sneaking out, the spies set up a trap in which dozens of illegal spell casters and criminals were captured, earning a huge reward from the constabulary.”
Details
- Adventure Level: 1-3, Basic
- Topic: Peoples’ Spell-Casters Company.
- Interesting Features: The discovery of a dangerous lair; a tricky mission; possible access to stolen magic after the spell-casters are captured; party’s first visit to the Great School.
- Campaign Hook: All of the Peoples’ SpellCasters Company hasn’t been captured. The remaining elements consider the PCs foes and will seek revenge.
The Outcome
Was not run as part of the Glantrian mini campaign as year 2 at the great school of magic, was the alternate storyline available. Could be run anytime in the first three years in Glantri.
Conclusion
More to be written about the outcome.
