This module was originally released by the Hickman's company
'Daystar West' in 1980.
"Your skin was blistered all day before the hot desert sun sank slowly below the horizon.
Now, the deep blue mists of the desert night swirl about you in the wind. The cool night air seems
to soak up the heat of the endless desert sands.
You shiver as you and your friends huddle around the campfire, glancing nervously at the
giant pyramid in the distance. There is an eerie and mysterious feeling about that place.
Gradually, the winds change direction, carrying a thin streak of white mist that swirls into
the shape of a faceless man dressed in ancient robes. The moonlight seems to shine through him as he
raises his arms toward the pyramid and speaks.
'I am Pharao Amun-re, son of Takosh-re of the House of Mo-pelar. I am now only a shadow who has
walked these sands for a thousand years in search of wise and mighty warriors to break into my pyramid
and plunder my tomb.'
The winds shift again; his robes begin to swirl about him and he fades back into the mists and winds.
Why does this desert spirit want you to plunder his tomb? Can you survive the challenges of a pyramid
that has stood for a thousand years? Or are you being led into a trap?"
