In the city of Hillsfar, players were free to "transfer any character from Pool of Radiance into Hillsfar (or create one from scratch)" and treated the experience like a series of challenges for characters to "go through some serious training". The caveat was that although players could transfer characters from Pool of Radiance, they couldn't transfer them back! But with next mainline game in SSI's Gold Box AD&D series, Curse of the Azure Bonds, players were able to transfer characters back and forth from there!
Artist: Clyde Caldwell Appeared on the cover of The Vanishing City, an AD&D gamebook released in 1987. It shows an armored figure atop a white horse wielding a spear at his side atop a rock outcropping behind which is a fog enshrouded valley and beyond that, on a rising hill of stone, as a medieval city sits in the distance covered in white sparkles and streaks beneath a cloudy sky at sunset.

Hillsfar had real-time, action oriented mini-games mixed in with RPG-flavored mechanics based on TSR's AD&D rules and was positioned like a series of side adventures. The box also featured art by longtime fantasy artist, Clyde Caldwell.
Just a lil worm pretending to be human and do sterile field gatekeeping.

Pulling the trigger and joining this platform to see if it’s something I might enjoy and possibility connect with more people on than IG/FB. I mostly post about my record collection, sword and sorcery books, and heavy metal, but there’s always a sprinkling of my dog in there too.
