Re: "Fair Better in Death" Campaign Journal Comments

Thank you for reading Saranka, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! :wink: As for your question as to why I decided to go with 2nd Edition over the d20 version, well, the reason is simple enough. I started playing D&D in January of 1981, so the majority my library of gaming material has been, and still ...

Re: "Fair Better in Death" Campaign Journal Comments

Well, I've added the second installment to my MotRD Campaign Journal "Fair Better in Death!", I tried to make a worth while read, including images. I hope you like it. :)

Re: Nanowrimo

I have a friend who is writing for this contest. I think she said she completed something like 9400 words today, which is a good start I guess. I'm in the process of writing a novel as well, but considering this is my first foray into actually writing something of note, I don't think I'm ready for N...

Re: languages gothic earth and ravenloft

Well, I've always looked at Gothic Earth as kind of a stand alone Ravenloft Domain in it of itself. Gothic Earth, outside of the Red Death, and it's minions, is no different than our world was during the 1890's. I consider the Ravenloft Core Domains, etc. to be that of a Fantasy Gothic Horror settin...

Re: The Raven Speaks

I've never heard a Raven speak before, but having spent several months in England, I did however finally understand why Poe wrote about them. American Ravens are tiny compared to that of the English Raven. I'm talking over twice their size. Their beaks are huge, and nearly a full inch in diameter at...

Re: Victorian Era Gothic Horror Movies

Some people swear by "Brotherhood of the Wolf". It's the Victorian Era, but France, not England. Persoanal, I liked it but found some of the plot twists too hokey to bear. Worth a watch, though. In look and feel, it's the closest I've felt to "Ravenloft: The Movie." Another one ...

Re: Halloween is coming

Venetian masks, it sounds like. I'm not sure where I'm going to find one to wear to the wedding in time, though.

Re: Ships on the Seas of RavenLoft

Manofevil, if Docbeard is correct, and Darkon has a working navy, etc. Then the ships that you would most likely see would be a mix of frigates, and sloops. With the occasional 3 deck Flagship. having at least 3 if not 4 masts. As to the armament, I suppose it would depend on where they are from. I ...

Re: Halloween is coming

Oh, I haven't yet planned anything for Halloween, but I think I'll at the very least have a "Horror Movie" night with friends, and family. Every year I do this, and watch at least one classic film, and almost always include Stephen Kings "Rose Red". One of the best paranormal Got...

Re: Victorian Era Gothic Horror Movies

^Do you mean something like the "Dark Shadows" series? That seems to have been pretty Gothic and dark, with good acting and I believe it is a British series. Yes, this is what I was kind of looking for. I'm aware of the "Dark Shadow's" series, but I guess I was hoping for some u...

Re: Victorian Era Gothic Horror Movies

I personally enjoyed the wolfman remake Yes, I've seen this, and will most likely include it in my library, but Benicio Del Toro's performance was in my opinion, amateur at best. I just didn't care for him in the role. There is just something about the old 1941 Lon Chaney version of the "Wolfm...
