Re: Challange make Urik Von Kharkov interesting.

I haven't used him yet, but in my head-cannon he's not a vampire nor a were-whatever, just a human with a panther form, background remains roughly the same.

Re: Your Headcanon: The True Nature of the Dark Powers?

The DM is the dark powers. Just a thought. This. In general I'm against trying to define the DP's in anything but the vaguest terms, even to myself, when discussing the setting with friends if this topic comes up I simply say "The Dark Power are The Dark Powers" and leave it at that, i th...

First ravenloft game i ever runed had a brief Strahd cameo, the players saw him looking at them from his castle. My second game i had the players be prisioners wating execution in Falkovnia, but instead of the clasic impaling thing, Drakov was in a hunting mood, a few gentlemen from Lamordia were of...

Re: Clash of the Titans

There werent any titans in the movie.... i have two ways of rating a movie 1) "It was worth the money and time spent" and 2) "I want my money and 2 hours of my life back", this one is the second option by very little, and probably would be just worth it, if it wasnt for the awful...

Re: Paridon-sized Domain [help]

The rulers wife was murderes(in fact turned into an abomination), the Jester is not a "man" he is "something" created by the dark powers to torture the darklord(the ruler), the domain is in the sea of sorrow just a little bit west of Blaustein. People of the domain know about mag...

Re: Paridon-sized Domain [help]

Since you've got a harlequin, a masquerade, an Italian feel and wizards tend to be quite showy; you could go with a renaissance Venice feel. Canals are great for chases and aquatic beasties. Perhaps a deep one esque secret among the gondolas. Also Paridon is generally on the brink of starvation, wh...
