Café de Nuit

I know the reason is for brand recognition and to milk longtime fans and collectors by releasing more products with the appropriate logo, but I can't understand why, if they feel having a canon history is a problem that they don't just shelve all of the existing campaign settings and just... make o...

I respect Ari and his take, but he's totally wrong. Table canon is a thing, but that doesn't negate the existence of book canon. I've played numerous Star Trek and Star Wars TTRPG campaigns (and I'm planning a Star Wars one for a couple years from now). And each of those games had their own canon. ...

Yeah, no. This is not a good thing.

If I was doing a Star Trek/Ravenloft crossover I’d start it as a holodeck adventure. Then slowly make the crew realise that they aren’t on the holodeck any more and grow the horror from there. Phasers are looked at as magic wands which isolated them from the locals. The universal translators malfunc...

My partner found this on YouTube.

It looks amazing.

Just as a note, I’m sure ages ago Ryan Naylor said if he could have he would have made Alanik gay in VRA. And when John Mangrum was doing his Teeny Tales of Terror (which someone really should collate, or if you read John, can you donate a copy to the Frat?) when I contributed my entry for the Hebi-...

I may have to update the gay Kargat agent I had in Richemulot and his bigoted Lebentod superior.

You can find their 3rd Ed stats and background if you dig around the boards.

Onmyoji has hit the nail on the head: WotC is more concerned about looking good than it is about doing the work to actually be good.

That’s really cool.

I own the original artwork for Sheneya from Children of the Night: Werebeasts which still as the art notes from WotC on the back.

If John or any of the Kargatane read this, I’m truly sorry for the loss of your friend. I don’t think you guys know how important your work was to me as it was a great distraction that got me through some dark and difficult times (which is probably why I’m so protective of it). My heartfelt condolen...

Drinnik, it is not the bottom just because it is different than what it is already in our libraries. It is certainly nowhere near as professional as Curse of Strahd, it is certainly not the product of love like the gazeteers, it has lost much of its Gothic Horror elements but it is not bad . It is ...

I’m a dm currently running curse of strahd and was wondering if there’s a good place to learn about the other aspects of ravenloft outside of the CoS campaign, any help is appreciated! I ... I will be a heretic. I actually suggest you get the new 5e Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. Start there. Si...

A relatively minor change, but one I haven't seen voiced, the no orcs in Ravenloft (for whatever reason that was a thing, I have never heard a reason behind it) is out. One of the pictures is of an orc hero that was bitten by a vampire. There were no orcs because it was to show it was t a high fant...

On the diversity issue, as a gay man I love seeing new minority characters of all stripes, good and evil.

The key word there being new characters.

Edit: i would just add i find REALLLLYYY weird that Lyssa Van Zarovich can now be the reincarnation of Tatyana. So we have the choice between incompetent writting team or... incest is cool now ? WTF is this writting team ?! Note: if any moderator feels my post need to be edited, i will not mind it ...
