Re: Ravenloft changes help
I think I have worked out a religious system that makes sense to me; one that actually feels more like a religion with its good and ills. The collapse of the Terg empire caused confusion for the tribes. Why did they lose was a common question. The had managed to conquer and were on the way of forgin...

Re: Ravenloft changes help
@Jimsolo: I plan on making a number of changes to the core as a whole. I am using what exists because there is a good bit that I do want to keep with canon (nova) vaasa. I think this is a potentially great idea, with a lot to recommend it. I would take it and run with it: change the cultures and the...

Ravenloft changes help
Hello, I am working on doing a number of changes to Ravenloft to fit my view of the setting; not to mention the fact I am using BRP as a system. Anyways I am looking for some advice and help as I go about doing this; hence this thread. To begin, the main changes I have made across the board are: mag...

Re: Languages of Ravenloft
I don't have a common language as well. Of course I also I use BRP, this also makes languages a percentage. which allows for a graidant of how much you might know of a language. I personally like the idea of having to have a translator if you are in a land that is foreign to you, hence the no common...

Re: Savage Ravenloft
There is the horror and fantasy companion that you may find useful. I love the savage worlds system, even though I prefer BRP/CoC for ravenloft. my only gripe is I don't like Power points, but that is a minor one, Hellfrost has a cool system that might be good to look at.

Re: VRG to aliens + VRG to ogres and hags
I am not much of a fan for alliens in ravenloft; I got CoC for that.
However, I would love to see more folkloric monsters in ravenloft. Folklore is a huge huge insperation for my ravenloft.

Re: On national anthems
I don't think that all realms have a national anthem. Barovia would not IMO. I am also not sure if Nova Vaasa would as it is a feudal kingdom that is in the midst of becoming a more centralized nation state. Though I can totally imagine a plot for nova vaasan bards to try and come up with a proper n...

Re: Political Asylum
Dementlieu would have an odd relationship with falkovinian refugees. on One hand they actively hate and discriminate against them; any in Dementlieu are scapegoats and treated horrible IMO. But also because of they don't like falkovinia they might be willing to accept some who want to kill Drakov fo...

Re: Rule systems.
Just wondering which rule system all you guys generally use. I'm currently still playing 2nd Ed (as it's all I know). I use Basic Role Playing, using resources from cthulhu dark ages(the medieval supplement for cthulhu). This makes things 1.) simple as everything is mainly derived from a percentile...

Re: Werewolf Alterations
As for my ravenloft I run with BRP, mainly with stuff from dark ages: cthulhu. To me this solves the problem of them not being scary. a basic werewolf stat is 6d6 or an average of 21 for str in BRP

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
Were there ever plans to visit the clusters and other non-core domains? such as Hara'akir or Sri Raji?

Re: Some doubts about Falkovnia
My Falkovinia is in a number of ways very different from cannon but in others still the same. So I will try to sum up the differences. My falkovina takes insperation from Ivan IV's russia, Qin Shi Haung di's china, and the holy roman empire, particularly folktales. For the most my ravenloft has a lo...

Re: Trains, Railways, and Ravenloft
Since I tend to have my ravenloft in general have more 1600-1700 technology; I would have trains. Nothing that great or special about them. I don't like closing domains borders, but if it happens in a train, then the train like IRL is just broken down and stuck near the border. They would primarly e...

Did not the grand conjunction add the nocturnal sea or did that come later?
