Café de Nuit

I'm going to be running some classic AD&D for my group and I'm running through the Grand Conjunction. Bearing in mind I've not ran these adventures since I was 17 and now I'm a few months shy of the big 4-0, I started to re-read them. NotWD , one of my favourite Ravenloft adventures, stands quit...

I woke up this morning, and got myself a ... coffee. I dreamed that the FoS was launching a sound (noises, wolf howling, ...) and music (atmospherics) part of the site, much like those online things. How cool would that be? Technically and ethically (copyrights), how could it work? You could find r...

Here’s Sheneya.

I own the original artwork for Sheeyna from CotN: Werebeasts, so I can send you a photo if you want.

Van Richten is white? How do we know he's straight? Not that I ever wondered but he seemed Asexual to me. I don't remember the various products where his son is mentioned though. Perhaps he's a biological son. And for that matter, Azalin is clearly asexual. Now, on what you just said: I think the b...

I guess someone doesn't like The Hobbit so much... :D PS Not even kender vampires? LOL! Tolkien is the one place I think they actually work, but it was built for that. Kender vampires sounds like something from a bad SNL skit. Kender vampires only exist in Sithicus and are the result of Soth experi...

Just going to leave this here…

My party would have loved this during Curse of Strahd.

While I think it was not possible to do something that would compare to the level of love and care the Kargatane did for Ravenloft Gazeteers for 3e, I agree that this product could have been better. Some ideas I really like, like Saidra's domain but even these, require care to flourish and to fill ...

Stole the books!

To be fair, editing the MGN was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.

As for the licenced characters i would just leave them be as most have either too much background to import them (freddy & myers) or to little to make them interesting (demogorgon, Nemesis, Pyramid Head & Leatherface - he is a similar enough to the Hillbilly that i don't think he would be a...

Boxed Set: The Black Box. I was only 15-16 when I got it (so 97-98?) and I fell in love with the setting immediately. It was so far removed from what D&D had been to me up until that point. The artwork was great, the way it made the setting feel unique with powers checks and spell alterations wa...

Mistipedia cannon : I think we need something called 5e-canon, Athaus-canon and TSR-canon. For example, Soth is and should remain that darklord of Sithicus. 3e-canon was not always consistent with TSR-canon. Soth left Sithicus at the tail end of TSR. The Black Rose was the place holder name that th...

That is the most blatant example of damage control I’ve read in a long time.

Canon in an RPG setting is like the base timeline, the default everyone’s game branches off. It’s important because it means new products can be slotted in to the story and people can take or leave them, but it builds the internal logic of the setting and creates the agreed default that anyone can r...
