Re: Magic pistol question
For me, the question would come down to this: is this pistol usable by anyone else? If so, should other users be able to use its abilities? If the answer to both was "yes", then I'd say it probably shouldn't use a grit point. UNLESS , only Gunslingers can activate its ability, because then...

Re: Campaigns with Undead PCs, Low magic
I can't speak to #1, so I'll let others handle that. As for #2, I highly enjoy low-magic campaigns. The one I will be running shortly is intended to be one such campaign. What I may caution you to do is to inform your players beforehand that you intend to do this in the campaign. That way, they unde...

Re: Famous explorers of Ravenloft, the Amber Wastes, and yua
Of the top of my head, I seem to recall an explorer by the names of Jacques Renier mentioned in the Gazetteers, but he'd be long dead by now. If I remember correctly, he was around in the early days of pre-Ravenloft Mordent (though, all of this could be incorrect as it is just from memory). There's ...

Re: Exiled from Falkovnia
He's starting as a Ranger, and probably multiclassing as a Fighter (so he can take the Hawkmaster and Raptor Knight prestige classes later). His only real goal at the moment is to find a way to return to his country. We had the idea that if he was framed for someone's murder, then in his exile, he s...

Exiled from Falkovnia
So... I've got a PC in an upcoming campaign. After careful deliberation and much discussion, the player and I worked out that his character will be a Drakov from Falkovnia, using the rules in Legacy of the Blood. He knows the risks of the curse and understands that this will be a particularly diffic...

Re: Voodan PC Outside Souragne
After Ryan said that, I managed to find it in the Book of Sorrows. It may be elsewhere, too, but I didn't have time go looking much further.

Voodan PC Outside Souragne
Possible, if unlikely? One of my players has asked if he could play a Voodan (the class from Dark Tales and Disturbing Legends), though I hadn't planned on our campaign focusing on Souragne much at all. I quite like the class and I love the flavor of Souragne, but I'm not sure how well it would fit ...

Re: Odd Question about... Fonts
Yes, these were among the first things I tried (after attempting to strip the information from one searchable PDF of the fifth Gazetteer I located). Sadly, these have returned no results. My hope was that the collective knowledge here might have uncovered the answer some time ago.

Odd Question about... Fonts
I've looked for this answer, but haven't found it. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places, though. Does anyone know what font is used for Azalin's text in the Gazetteers and other books?

Re: Godefroy Family PC
I know I don't, but I do value the opinion of other fans, particularly those who know a setting well. I do a lot of writing and this is kind of like getting alpha readers to spot the flaws before it goes to print

Re: Godefroy Family PC
Godefroys are trapped after death in Gryphon Hill? The Godefroys become ghosts after death and ethereal creatures are drawn to Gryphon Manor while in Mordent, eventually being trapped there. So it's more of a transitive property issue here. Personally I would go: "At first, unaware. Then he sl...

Godefroy Family PC
In my upcoming Ravenloft campaign, a player of mine would like to be a descendant of the Godefroy bloodline (using the rules from Legacy of the Blood) and has asked me a question I can't immediately answer: how much does a Godefroy typically know about his curse? This stemmed from him asking if his ...

Re: New to Ravenloft? Introduce yourself here!
Hello! I'm sort of new to Ravenloft and FoS... but also not quite. I say that because while I was only introduced to Ravenloft a few years ago, since then I've been around the site and boards very frequently and have read virtually every Ravenloft book I can get my hands on.
