3.5 Descent into the Depths of the Earth
(Converted by Jeff Wrbelis)
A few notes: This is a Greyhawk module, and with sticking to the stats presented in the original adventures, the characteristics scores for Drow encountered are calculated using G. Gygaxs ability score ranges listed under the drow entry at the back of each adventure. In addition, for those who wish to keep the Greyhawk drow much closer to the original, the additional level-based spells from the first edition stats are also included. 3.5 DMs who want to keep the stats lower powered to the 3.5 monster Manual should simply disregard the bonus class/gender based spells original Greyhawk drow possess (with the exception of the All Drow spells, which have remained unchanged). These include the following:
All drow, 1/day: Dancing Lights, Darkness, Faerie Fire
Any drow with 4 or more class levels, 1/day: Detect Magic, Detect good (Know Alignment was dropped in 3.0), Levitate
These spells are cast as a sorcerer of the drows total class level, or as a sorcerer at the minimum level required to use the spell in question.
Ability Scores: The average ability score for Greyhawk drow females and males are listed below (rounded down). These are before any adjustment for character levels.
Female: Str 11, Dex 17, Con 10, Int 15, Wis 13, Cha 14
Male: Str 8, Dex 17, Con 10, Int 14, Wis 10, Cha 12
Racial Abilities: +2 to Will saves vs spells & spell-like abilities, +2 to Enchantment magic saves, immune to magical Sleep, Darkvision 120, Spell Resistance: 11+ class levels. +2 racial bonuses to listen, search and spot checks. Coming within 5 of a secret door entitles the drow to a free spot check. Greyhawk drow are very stealthy (according to their original write up), gaining a +4 racial bonus to hide and move silently checks. Drow struck with bright light (such as sunlight, or a Daylight spell) are blinded for 1 round, and remained dazzled as long as they stay within the area of the illumination. Although there is no official rule for it, female drow might gain a +5 racial bonus to their intimidate checks vs. male drow, at your discretion (this would go a ways to countering the high intimidation score male fighters have, without neutering them against other males).
Greyhawk drow weapons, Cloak and boots: Greyhawk drow weapons receive their magic-like pluses from the weird radiations of the drow homeland, as well as their mixture of adamantine alloy. As noted in the module, these items irreversibly rot when exposed to sunlight (Faerzress weapons from the Realms have borrowed upon this). Though fine weapons, Greyhawk drow arms are not always necessarily masterwork quality, nor do their magic-like abilities require them to be. Drow cloaks grant a +5 competence bonus to hide checks. Drow boots grant a +5 competence bonus to move silently checks. The bonuses for cloak and boots, as well as armor check penalty, have already been added to drow skill totals. All drow, unless otherwise noted, are assumed to be wearing the boots and cloak their race is noted for (for some hefty Hide/move silent mods for these elves). Greyhawk drow wear a fine mesh of black elven chain mail armor, similar to that found in the 3.5 DMG (does not impeded the drows normal 30 movement speed, has an arcane spell failure of 20%, Max Dex bonus +4, armor check pent: -2, light armor, weighs 20 lbs). The armor check penalty for this chain mail has been added to the skill rank totals. All Greyhawk drow receive proficiency in the shortsword, hand crossbow (exotic weapon) and either dart or javelin as bonus weapon proficiencies. Drow hand crossbows are of the Small variety. Greyhawk Drow knockout poison requires a primary and secondary DC 15 Fort save or unconscious for 2d4 hours. Drow carry 1d4-1 doses each, and each dose is sufficient to cover 1 shortsword or 1 dagger, or 10 hand crossbow bolts.
No special prestige classes have been added to any of the higher level drow the pcs may encounter (feel free to add them), though a few have modified ability scores above the norm. Multi-class creatures have been given their flat levels in the appropriate *classes, with no xp calculation from the conversion book. (I.e. a 5th ftr/7th level wiz 1st edition drow is exactly that in this module, not a recalculated 9th level character). Where bonus spells appear (or 1st edition spells had their levels altered) I substituted or added spells that would be useful for the drows assigned duties. Encounter levels have been estimated, using the guide on page 49 of the 3.5 DMG. However, when the table was obviously wrong, an estimate of true EL has been provided. Fore example, Encounter Area 4 (Gargoyle Lair) features 15 of the flying beasts. According to the EL table, thats a level 19 encounter (a bit over-rated, IMHO). I felt it wanted an EL 11 encounter.
[*In fact, I am thinking of offering Hardcore and Balanced versions of some of these encounters. Hardcore would be the literal interpretations of Monsters with character classes ( a first Edition Cleric6/Assassin6 Kuo Toa would be a monster with 12 Character levels), and the Balanced version of the creature would be a 3rd level fighter with another 3 levels of Rogue (making it much closer to the 7th level character power level in the original.]
Full melee attacks are listed, accounting for Str, magic, two weapon fighting, weapon finesse, weapon focus, and modifiers to Finesse while using shield in off hand. Weapon Specialization and off hand damage mods are already factored in as well. Masterwork bucklers (in the absence of rules clarification) still provide the -1 to hit weight penalty listed in the buckler description, but their quality prevents the additional -1 penalty (since they are masterwork) that a normal buckers armor check penalty forces on a person using weapon finesse.
Kuo-Toan: There are a few differences between 1st ed. and 3.5 Kuo-Toan. Lightning generated by Kuo-Toan whips has been halved in power from 1st edition, but the requirements to generate the bolt have been lessened, as well as their frequency increased, so the module sticks with 3.5 for this effect. However, some other abilities of the 1st edition Kuo-Toan were also completely deleted. Fish Empathy, 75 % improbability water elemental creatures will attack them if a whip is near, Magic Missiles inflict but 1 hp/missile, Immunity to Illusion, Blindsight within 10 (due to air vibrations). Spells which generally affect only humanoid-type creatures (charm person, hold person, sleep) have no effect on these creatures. While most of these dropped abilities are minor, a few together warrant an additional +1 CR above what is listed in the 3.5 monster manual. All encounters in this conversion assume each Greyhawk Kuo-Toa has these missing abilities and the CR will reflect this in the monster write-ups and CR levels.
Svirfneblin Weapons:
Gas Darts: When one of these darts strikes it is constructed so as to compact and break a
small glass bead containing a gas. Any creature struck on its front parts must save Fort DC 18, or this puff of gas has reached the creatures system; it will be stunned on the next round and slowed for the 4 rounds following that. (The effect duration was converted to 3.5 to keep in spirit with melee durations otherwise, these darts would stun you for TEN 3.5 edition rounds)
Acid Darts: A hit splashes acid which eats a small hole in armor in 1 round (Ref DC 18, or permanently lose 1 AC from the armors armor value make a separate save for EACH dart, effects are cumulative), plus 2-8 acid damage to creature. A successful save negates the armor damage, but the acid still inflicts 2-8 hit points of damage.
Greyhawk Deep-Gnome Racial Notes: Greyhawk Svirfnebli communicate with each other by a form of racial empathy when outside their own domains (i.e. they have no need to speak, thus endangering their location). All of these small creatures can converse with speaking creatures from the Earth Elemental Plane, and it is 90% unlikely that any such creature will harm a Svirfneblin, although the Deep Gnome might have to pay a heavy bribe in precious metal and gems to so escape.
Note that a Greyhawk Svirfneblin of 6th level is likely to be able to summon an earth elemental with a Will DC 12 check. The type of earth elemental which can be summoned is found on this table (d20):
Elemental summoning can be attempted once per day. Summoned elementals must be paid in fine gems by the summoner, a commodity the deep gnomes are loath to give up. Note that unlike XP for defeating monsters from Summon Monster spells or the like, full XP should be given for any of these elementals, as the ability to summon such creatures is not a part of the deep-gnome CR.
Stonecunning: This ability grants deep gnomes a +2 racial bonus on Search checks to notice unusual stonework. A deep gnome who merely comes within 10 feet of unusual stonework can make a Search check as though actively searching, and can use the Search skill to find stonework traps as a rogue can. A svirfneblin can also intuit depth, sensing the approximate distance underground as naturally as a human can sense which way is up.
Original Tournament Characters
Below are listed the original characters that were available. Their Skill Modifiers are listed with armor and encumbrance already factored in. I have placed their physical skill totals without equipment/encumbrance in brackets [+] when there is a difference. I did not list class feats that are automatic (normal armor, shield and martial/simple weapons feats that various classes get automatically). Some of these appeared in Against the Giants and some in Descent into the Depths of the Earth.

*Dust of Sneezing and Choking: This fine dust appears to be dust of appearance. If cast into the air, it causes those within a 20- foot spread to fall into fits of sneezing and coughing.

**Lurker Cloak: This cloak allows the user to assume the form of a small Lurker Above (detailed in the City of the Spider Queen web enhancement). The wearers wing span becomes 2 longer than his height, and he may levitate up or down 20 per round, fly at 30/round with Good maneuverability and takes half damage from bludgeoning weapons while in this form. When attached to a ceiling in rocky areas with little vegetation, the user gains a +12 bonus to Hide checks. The users armor class remains unchanged. The wearer is effectively too small to make a real Lurker Aboves special Smother or Constrict attacks. Changing to Lurker form is a standard action.

*When mounted on his wyvern and wielding the two handed flail from Area #39, the trog chiefs close empathy with his mount grant him a bonus feat equivalent to Spirited Charge, such that his flail will inflict double damage when his mount performs a Flyby attack. With such a charge, the Trog Chief gets one attack, at +11, and inflicts 2d10+6 damage.
The chief does not gain any of the other feats that normally are required for Spirited Charge. Thus he may not block damage to his mount, as with Mounted Combat, and he must ready his action to strike when the wyvern does its Flyby attack (i.e. the wyvern is in charge in mid-air, as the chief does not have the ride-by attack feat).

Improved Grab/Swallow Whole: If the Gar hits with its bite attack, it may start a grapple with a free action (No Attack of Opportunity against the Gar). If it manages to win the first grapple check, it may launch another one the following round. If successful, the Gar swallows the victim if it is smaller than the Gar. Swallowed victims take 1d8+3 bludgeoning damage and 4 pts of Acid damage each round. A light slashing weapon that inflicts 10 hp of damage vs. AC 14 will allow a victim to escape, but then muscular contraction closes the hole. A new victim must cut his own way out. A Gar can swallow 2 M, 8 S, 32 Tiny or 128 Diminutive or smaller creatures.

Shrine of the Kuo-Toa
Notes about Kuo-Toa patrols: Kuo-Toan guards that wield a shield will have adhesive applied. Any time a foe makes an unsuccessful attack against the shield-user, they must make a Reflex DC 14 save or the weapon sticks to the shield and is automatically yanked from the weapon-wielders hand. Locked gauntlets and such probably result in both creatures taking penalties as if grappled. Pulling a glued weapon free is a DC 20 Strength check.
Nets: A net is used to entangle enemies. When a Kuo-Toa throws a net, it makes a ranged touch attack against the target. A nets maximum range is 10 feet. If hit, the target is entangled. An entangled creature takes a 2 penalty on attack rolls and a 4 penalty on Dexterity, can move at only half speed, and cannot charge or run. If the Kuo-Toa controls the trailing rope by succeeding on an opposed Strength check while holding it, the entangled creature can move only within the limits that the rope allows. If the entangled creature attempts to cast a spell, it must make a DC 15 Concentration check or be unable to cast the spell. An entangled creature can escape with a DC 20 Escape Artist check (a full-round action). The net has 5 hit points and can be burst with a DC 25 Strength check (also a full-round action). A net is useful only against creatures within one size category of the Kuo-Toa (Small to Large). A net must be folded to be thrown effectively. The first time thrown in a fight, the attacker makes a normal ranged touch attack roll. After the net is unfolded, there is a 4 penalty on attack rolls with it. It takes 2 rounds for a proficient user to fold a net and twice that long for a non-proficient one to do so.
Harpoon (Sword & Fist) 1d10/Crit 20/x2, Range Inc. 30. If a harpoon hits its target, the victim must make a Reflex DC 10+ damage received or become impaled. If impaled, the target can move at only half speed, and cannot charge or run. If the Kuo-Toa controls the trailing rope by succeeding on an opposed Strength check while holding it, the entangled creature can move only within the limits that the rope allows (30 max). If the entangled creature attempts to cast a spell, it must make a DC 15 Concentration check or be unable to cast the spell. Removing a harpoon requires both hands and a full-round action, and inflict damage equal to the damage the initial attack caused (if the Kuo Toan inflicted 10 damage, the victim takes another 10 when he removes the harpoon).

This is great. Did you ever get it turned into PDF and posted to Canonfire as Rick suggested? I could really use the rest of this - whatever you have. :)
Great job!
BTW - for Drow to get their special spells back, they did add a feat in FR Underdark called Drow Noble - they would take that and get the special 4th level spells. You have to be 4th or higher level to qualify, and a Drow. I was planning to use that for all the Drow in D1-3.
I woork on it when i get spare time...lately I've been doing a lot of the module tournament PC's that were used by playtesters.
Here's what I've added since the last post:

Creatures slain by this attack become Specters under their creators control in 1d4 rds. Animals can sense the Spectres unnatural aura at 30, and will not willingly approach (or become panicked if forced). Spectres caught in real sunlight can only take partial actions and may not attack.

Spell-like abilities: (as 13th level sorcerer, DC: 11 + spell level): Darkness, Dancing Lights, Faerie Fire, Detect Good, Detect magic, Levitate
Spells Prepared: (4/5/4/3/1); save DC = 13 + spell level (*14 + for evocation):
0 Detect Magic, Detect Poison, Message (x2)
1st *Burning Hands, Charm Person, Comprehend Languages, *Magic Missile, Ray of Enfeeblement
2nd Blindness/Deafness, Mirror Image (1d4+2), Protection from Arrows, Web
3rd Dispel Magic, *Fireball, Hold Person
4th *Wall of Fire
**Staff of Viscid Globs: When you attack with a viscid glob, you make a ranged touch attack (100+10level) against the target. If you miss, the glob might strike a nearby square or creature (see Missing with a Thrown Weapon, PH 158). Once you have established the direction of the miss, roll 1d4 to determine the number of squares away from the target square that the glob lands. A Medium or smaller creature struck by the glob must make a successful Reflex (DC 15+ caster stat) save or be instantly stuck in place for one hour/level of staff wielder. A stuck creature can speak but is otherwise limited to purely mental actions (such as casting spells with no somatic or material components) and attempts to free itself by means of a Strength check or Escape Artist check (DC 15+ caster stat)) made as a full-round action.
A Large or larger creature stuck in the goo cant move from the spot where it is glued, but it can otherwise act normally. The glob dissipates when the spell duration expires. Until then, it remains sticky, and any creature touching it (for example, a creature attempting to pull out an ally) must make a successful Reflex save or become stuck itself. A creature stuck by such secondary contact is not trapped as thoroughly as a creature targeted by the glob, however, so the DC of the Strength check or Escape Artist check required to get free is DC 12. NOTE: This was originally a Wand, however 3.5 limits spell levels for wands to 4th level. Viscid Glob is a 5th level spell from the Spell Compendium.
The Vault of the Drow module wand was far more powerful: Range is 60. Each blob covers an area of 4 square feet with a gummy substance which adheres various things together hands to items they hold, arms to shields, and members to bodies. That is, whatever is struck and globed will permanently stick to any other such object, but the substance is dissolved by alcohol such as that in wine. The blob bond is generally far stronger than the substances it holds together, so that an exceptionally strong creature might actually tear itself apart trying to get free if it exerts sufficient efforta saving throw applies for any creature with intelligence between 2 and 6, those with 7 or better need not do so, for they are intelligent enough to stop self-destructive action.
