Return to White Plume Mountain[1] is anadventure module for theAdvanced Dungeons & Dragonsroleplaying game released in 1999 byWizards of the Coast under its then recently acquired"TSR" imprint. It is set in theWorld of Greyhawkcampaign setting and is a sequel toLawrence Schick's 1979 moduleWhite Plume Mountain.
The 64-page book was written byBruce R. Cordell and updates the legend of the eponymous mountain and its previous inhabitant, the sorcererKeraptis. In the Greyhawk timeline, the events in the module are assumed to occur 20 years after the events described in the original S2 -White Plume Mountain adventure.
In ancient times, a sorcerer named Keraptis searched for eternal life. Within the magma domes and steam vents of an active volcano, he conducted his arcane experiments. Eventually he faded into legend, and the world heard no more of Keraptis for more than a millennium.
Two decades ago, however, Keraptis reappeared in White Plume. The mountain and its insane lord proved too much for most, but eventually courage and justice triumphed. Keraptis was finally dead or so the world thought.
Now, twenty years later, a face has appeared in the volcano's smoke—the face of Keraptis himself, say those who should know. Is the vile wizard immortal after all? Or is there an even greater threat building beneath White Plume Mountain?
Return to White Plume Mountain was published in December 1999.[2] Several supplements were released in 1999 to update some of the most popular of TSR'sDungeons & Dragons adventures, includingAgainst the Giants: The Liberation of Geoff (1999),Dragonlance Classics 15th Anniversary Edition (1999),Ravenloft (1999),Return to the Keep on the Borderlands (1999) andReturn to White Plume Mountain (1999).[3]: 284
