Another RL mention in WotC's books?

Post by Joël of the FoS »

In Stormwrack, which I'm rereading for the Nocturnal Sea project, I saw another RL possible reference:

It's in the Tamorean Vast Sea adventure (p 201)

The Dread Mists of the Vast

(...)

Rumor suggests that these mists are the reason why some ship diseappear. If sailor's tales are to be believed, ships that disappear in the mists are pulled into another, darker world of terror from which nothing escapes. (...)

There was a thread with the same speculation about the Tymorean Vasts which was posted here around a year ago, I think. :)

It must be the authors who liked Ravenloft and plug it in subtly whenever they can. I know that's what I'd do!

And in Dragon 348 there's a big article about Vecna that also says he was trapped in Ravenloft for some time, though the setting is not addressed by name.
