"The Witch Queens gather every 13 years to discuss politics, and issues of their realms, to share magical discoveries and socialize. But mostly they meet to make sure they stay out of each other's way.
At each Tredecim a new High Queen is chosen to make sure that all witches abide by the rules. This year however one the first day of the Conclave the current High Queen was murdered.
With the High Queen dead and her successor unchosen, the Witches are threatening to go to war with each other, and worlds are caught in between."
The idea is this war of these powerful witches will happen. The PCs get pulled into this drama and must discover who killed the High Queen and how to stop it.
The Witch Queens
A big old-school campaign I am working on is War of the Witch Queens. I have been collecting these NPCs for years. Not all are Witch Queens, but all have something to do in the campaign and all were at the Conclave of Witches, so each one is a suspect.
I will admit I have some ideas on who the murderer is. I am also split on which of these will be the victim, though I have two in mind. Part of the fun here is to build the mystery.

Great work i try to use on my D&D5 campaign some of these.
"The Simbul, Alassra Shentrantra Silverhand, Witch Queen of Aglarond" is missing ?
She is missing, but because she is such an important figure I want to do her right!
Have you considered combining all of your Swords & Wizardry With books into one book for the system with its recent revival?
