Plot summary

The Best of Intentions is a humorously written scenario for Immortals-level characters.[1] The player characters are sent to find the missing immortal Mazikeen, and while searching through Mazikeen's 24 planes for his avatars, the characters discover a plot against the immortals' hierarchy.[1] The module includes a 3-D map grid that indicates altitude for use in conducting aerial combat.[1]

The player characters are rookie Immortals trying to solve a mystery of cosmic proportions.[2] The characters compete in the Olympic Trials, journey to the weird and multifarious planes of Mazikeen, and deal with other strange events.[2]

Reception

Jim Bambra briefly reviewed The Best of Intentions for Dragon magazine #131 (March 1988).[2] Bambra praised the module, saying "Colorful pregenerated characters, excellent staging, nice cut-up bits, inserts, and amusing Jim Holloway illustrations make this a real treat for would-be gods. The Best of Intentions is a fun romp through the mystical realms of the D&D game's Immortals Set. Miss this one it at your own peril."[2]

gollark: You would generally expect that if you turn off some location-tracking-related setting, your location would no longer be tracked.

The regulator said consumers would assume that turning off "Location History" would mean Google did not track their location. In reality, both settings needed to be switched off to ensure a degree of privacy.

gollark: No need to *help* them.
gollark: Maybe? I'll try and find a relevant article or something.
