[D&D 3.5] Solo Party Game

Hello! I'm looking for a DM willing to run me through one of the Dungeon magazine adventure paths for 3.5 or something akin to that which is structured. Ideally, I'd like to play it solo with the DM with me running a four- or five-PC party. If needs be, I could split with one other player if that's the only way we could do this.

I'd be looking to use WOTC materials from a number of the splatbooks (no intention to use Book of Exalted Deeds or Books of Vile Horror and definitely no Tome of Battle cheese). I'm looking for pretty much by-the-book rules with minimal house-rules.

Do you have a preference of WHAT adventure paths? Savage Tide, Age of Worms, Shackled City? Other ones like the Victor St. Demaine trilogy, or the Schema adventures from Eberron?

I have run Shackled City, so probably not that one. Otherwise, I'm pretty open.

Re: [D&D 3.5] Solo Party Game

I ran an in person (age of worms) game once upon a long time ago. It was left un-finished due to an interstate move, and I would like to see it brought to completion.

I do use the structured adventure path's plot points, but there is an entire world outside of what is presented in the magazine or what is presented in the original Greyhawk version.

This allows for the player(s) to apply more creative solutions to problems, that the original game designers had not thought of.

I also put more reality into the game, meaning that if you ask an NPC farmer how his crop is doing...you will get more then a 2 dimensional conversation.
...or if you do a bit of detailed research you may be able to find, and cut off a key resource the BBEG needs to complete his world ending goals, which means the BBEG has to come to you and fight on your turf where you have home court advantage and are the one that set the traps specifically with the BBEG and their minions in mind. (aka...completely derail the campaign in your benefit.)

I have no issue with players using any resource published by WOTC. But the same reality that I put into the world, I put into my interpretations of morality and ethics. So if you wish to use (the book of exalted deeds) your deeds must be exalted, when viewed both in and out of context.
if you want to use (book of vile darkness) or (exemplars of evil) or (villain design handbook)...well I think you can finish that thought...

I have a blank game I can use if you are interested in my concept. please ignore the epic 6 stuff...it is left over from a game that did not draw enough players.
