No, Lev, no! If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate
your destiny!

Seriously, why not pull a Mongoose? Create your own version of Snake Pipe
Hollow using other words, and use RQIII (or *cough*, CBRP/d100) for the
system. You could call it "Reptile Flute Basin"! :D

questions about Mongoose/RQ licensing.

I would really love to do an "Snake Pipe Hollow
Expanded" setting and campaign pack.

Maybe I'll have to do it for (sotto voce) HeroQuest...
