Café de Nuit

Reaper miniatures Chronoscope have these miniatures called Bathalian which is a name they made out for Illithids. I believe these monsters could be how the El-Koth look like. They resemble a hybrid of mind flayers and Zerg hydralisk's from the Starcraft game. Zerg have two cell types at birth — one ...

I found this cool mini for Ivan Dilisnya 5e

Grûlan

"One such young woman was the peasant girl Marta , to whom Bakholis took fancy when his hunting party passed through the village of Grûlan."
-p.44 Gazetteer IV

I believe it should be somewhere in Vulpwood as these were probably Bakholis private hunting grounds.

I don't disagree with any of what you said, Speedy, but none of that changes the likelihood that Meph is right. It's just a matter of when the countdown begins in earnest. Well it is a nice scenario to find his body in the woods (or maybe he recently died from White Fever) and while investigating h...

Second, the hamlet is home to a man named Alskel Faedelspar, who claims to make arrowheads from a local flint which have proven particularly efficacious against beasts from Verbrek... Alskel's arrowheads work equally well against any lycanthrope... or undead, including a certain Sithican vampire. A...

There is a 2e Guide to Transylvania an accessory for Masque of the Red Death sourcebook of Gothic Earth

What edition of D&D do most people use for Ravenloft on these forums? I believe the majority of writers in this forum use Pathfinder or 3/3.5e D&D rules. There are some exceptions though as it is evident in some QtR articles that use 2e AD&D and some write about 5e (I think I haven'twit...

I’ve been a long time fan of Ravenloft and own most of the 2E and 3E books. Is the recent Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft worth getting as an update to the setting if I already own most of the 2E/3E books? … Also, on a side note, I’ve decided Strahd won’t be the “keystone” to my Ravenloft. Instead...

Animated exoskeletons? That... doesn't sound blasphemous. Does the insect has to be dead or it could have just grown out of its exoskeleton? Dead... :azalin: Insects do not have an internal skeleton like we do, known as an endoskeleton. Rather, the outside of their bodies is their skeleton, an exos...

I think it's more like a tri-kreen, it doesn't say insect, it says insectoid. Or how were those ant-people with four hands? Description from Ravenloft Monstrous Compendium III - p101 Skeleton, Insectoid These nightmarish automatons are the animated exoskeletons of dead insects . The compendium has ...

it's not too difficult to just imagine a generic bug. 🐜 Good thing we don't even have to imagine https://i0.wp.com/www.sciencenews.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/112320_CWi_ant_feat.jpg?w=1030&ssl=1 https://st3.depositphotos.com/29384342/33861/i/450/depositphotos_338612258-stock-photo-larval-sh...

The one I sent is from Mistipedia referring to this

Skeleton, Insectoid
Ravenloft Monstrous Compendium III - p101

Undead exoskeletal remains of an insect. May be of the Giant Ant, Giant Tick, or Stag Beetle varieties. The entry's illustration is that of the Drow Vampire for some reason (a typo).

Was there ever a correction to this?

That and its importance (or hosting of important events and characters) to the 3e metaplot made me think about it more. Isabella Aderre + Vlad Drakov = Gabrielle Aderre Isabella Aderre + The Gentleman Caller = Vigo Drakov Gabrielle Aderre + The Gentleman Caller = Malocchio Aderre That's really mess...

Any thoughts on the Invidia project? I haven't thought about Invidia much in general. I had never used it in a campaign, although The Evil Eye is a great adventure and I was always curious about Baron Bakholis, before his background story was presented in Gazetteer IV. But there has to be a place c...
