I will shortly be updating this for use with 3.5 (once the Bestiary is released) and expanding/improving upon it, with adventure ideas, advice for amending the level of play, changes for those who want to stick with canon, etc.
Hope that helps

btw, i ran that module. it was fun =)
Hey, thanks for the kind words.
I figured the Tower of Magus may have something that would assist the Heroes.
DL Classics II (IIRC) mentions a wand of fire in a ruined tower on Cristyne, and the tower being the home of giant wasps, but it doesn't specifically mention it as being the Tower of Magius/Magus (it's spelt differently in different products).
Hope that helps.

I am thinking of converting it to 3e, and figured that might be a good place to start. Thank you. (By the way, it was an excellent module, though i know nothing of SAGA, which is why I want to convert it.)
Thanks for your comments. As I mentioned above, I have already practically completed the 3.5 conversion, except for those monsters still to be released in The Bestiary (wichtlin, daemon warrior, and shadow wight) and I have significantly expanded it in terms of additional character hooks and future adventures. I will be posting it on dragonlance.com as soon as The Bestiary is released (presuming they OK it).
The other thing I had not got round to was the pre-gen PCs. What I'll do over the next few days is do my take on a conversion and post them up here. Feel free to post your own too (or just do a conversion for yourself) - nobody's right with these things, it's an art. The adventure turned out to be roughly for 7th-level PCs, so I might have to power up or down the PCs from their original stats to fit the adventure level.
Watch this space.

Thank you for the conversion, basically i was mostly trying to figure out roughly the party size and level, so that i could then adjust based off of that. I was thinking I would work the adventure into the campaign I am putting together, in which the final goal is a final confrontation with Frost, which will be a challenge I think, as they will have to lure the Beast out of its lair, and then they have to battle it.
