Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to tell you we have the permission to create a new section in the fan archives : Lucifer Abbaddon have given us the OK to host his netbooks. We will be back when it is online!

Sorry to necro an old thread like this, but I'm curious to know if there was any progress regarding these netbooks? The details on the Amber Wastes and Saragoss might keep me sated until the FoS gets around to writing those gazetteers someday!

Got a feeling this is more Dr Fran than Dr Mordenheim. Looking forward to seeing the content.

Sorry to necro a thread like this, but any updates, Joel? I know you're a busy person and with the QtR coming out soon there's a lot on your plate, so no worries if it's going to take a while! I wanted to also necro this thread to say that there's a group of classic Ravenloft fans that speak Portuguese that might be able to help translate the contents here, if you reach out to them. One of them is Gabriel Jansen, who does the Hour of the Raven YouTube channel that covers classic Ravenloft lore as well as the newer 5e content. I know this because he along with a few collaborators recently put up on DM'sGuild an all new Ravenloft supplement that mixes Spelljammer with Ravenloft called Dread Space. Plus one of his collaborators, Leandro Zerbinatti de Oliveira, is stated in his bio on the supplement to have kept a Brazilian Ravenloft site. Is this Lucifer Abbadon? If not, then I apologize for conflating the two, it just seemed like a coincidence. Regardless, it might be a good idea to reach out to this group (they call themselves the Black Feather) on DM'sGuild or other platforms and maybe ask if they can help with translating the Portuguese netbooks that you were able to rescue? If not, I'm sure the Fraternity of Shadows can do some in-house work. I don't mean to disturb anyone's schedules, I'm just a big fan of digging through old archives and finding neat stuff and this sounds like it has a lot of promise!

*cries* It's beautiful. So much material, saved from the pits of despair! Great big thanks to you Joel and Lucius! I might not understand it at all (well only a little bit, knowing French and Spanish fluently helps get some of the gist) but it's still important to have! Time to bust out the old translator websites and start digging for gold in these old tomes of lore...
