The God Brain is back...

[The_God_Brain]

Some of you may remember The God Brain from The Malodorous Goat Tavern. Those of you who do can now tremble at the return of the mighty God Brain. Those of you who don't....should tremble anyway.





So...how have you all been? Did you enjoy my stories in the netbook?

[Coan]

Yay God Brain is here.

[Joël of the FoS]

You found the way!

Welcome back!

[Gemathustra]

Yay for boobies!
You want we should post pictures of topless Emma Caulfield in celebration?

[Wiccy of the Fraternity]

Welcome back God Brain

[Reginald de Curry]

Yay for boobies!

Dang, beat me to it.

Welcome back to Heck, G-B. Enjoy your stay, because we will never let you leave. (Insert Twilight Zone theme music here.)

Yes. Yes I do.

God Brain does not intend to leave. In fact, God Brain has some stuff It has written that It would like to submit to the website. God Brain is both intruiged and disgusted by the discover that there is so little material on Blutespur availible. God Brain seeks to remedy this problem.

Coming soon: the secret (and true) history of Blutespur...strait from the God Brain's mo-- um, Brain. Yeah.

More to come.

Good to see you guys again.

[The Nightmare Man]

This is one domain that I've never really read that much about, so I'm looking forward to your work on this, G-B .

BTW, for reference purposes, which 2e tome was Blutespur detailed in? Islands of Terror perhaps?

It was also described in the 2e adventure Thoughts of Darkness.

Also, I would be delighted to see more information of Bluetspur, So God-Brain, I bring you the best regards from Hell, so that you may share your knowledge of Bluetspur with the rest of us.

Believe it or not, very little has been written about the origin of Blutespur. One attempt was made in a Book of S___, and while it was creative, if fell woefully short in several areas...one, it had a lackluster origin for The God Brain. Second, it failed to explain some key elements of Bluetspur, such as the racial deviations of the Thanni and the landscape of the domain. All such questions will be answered, and they will be answered with commentary by a fictional author, the Land of Mists' greatest Illithid Slayer, Bowe Vizzick of the Thanni.

As for my source material, in addition to some obvious 2nd edition Ravenloft material, I will draw upon The Illithiad, which has hints in it about the origin of The God Brain. Its subtle, but its there.

In addition, the following questions will be answered...

1. What is the God Brain's curse?
2. How or why did It and the illithid arrive in Ravenloft
3. Why is Bluetspur the way it is?
4. What the hell are they doing here?
5. Who are the Thanni and what the hell are THEY doing here?
6. Why did Bluetspur break away from the Core in the Grand Conjuction?
7. How powerful is The God Brain?
8. What are people doing about all these freakin' Illithid?

As to question number 7, lets put it this way: According to the Forgotten Realms Underdark supplement, an AVERAGE illithid elder brain is a large abberation that has a DC of 25, making it more powerful that about 90% of Ravenlofts Darklords. The God Brain is a colossal abberation with domain powers, making It quite possibly the most powerful Darklord in the ENTIRE LAND OF MISTS. The implications this has on the rest of the Demiplane, as well as the questions it raises (why the hell has the damned thing conquored the whole plane?) are intruiging, but not so intruiging as their answers.

You can expect this supplement by next summer, at the latest. Good day.

P.S. I was flattered to see that the site has a link to my old Solorus netbooks. I had forgotten all about them. That almost makes up for having my bio left out of the Ravenloft fiction net book, even though it contained two of stories. Almost.

Alright folks, come one come all. It's time for the Fists in the Mists, the clash of the titans.

In one corner, soaking in a mass of briny goo devouring the tadpoles of lesser Illithids is the more powerful of the 100% cerebral Ravenloftian Big Bads and the darklord so powerful it can only be called a deity. Let’s hear it for the GOD BRAAAAAIN!

And in the other corner, crouched in the eternal blackness of the dimension of shadow is the sorcerer fiend himself, he who once enslaved and entire race of dark fey and the possessor of a hand with thirteen fingers! Let’s all hear it for GWYDION!

Now taking bets. Form a que and no pushing.

[Greywolf]

Welcome G.B , Im also interested in Blutespur and look forward to your source book or articles on the domain. Like most Ive had little run in with Blutespur other then in The book of S and in thoughts of Darkness but was left with the same questions that you are going to answer, I look forward to it in the future.

And on the bet I choose God Brain at two to one odds, after all he may be the only being powerful enough to open Gwydions prison, intersting campeign plot ehh.

Can we have the battle take place in the swamps of Souragne? That way we could have Anton Misroi decide to bust them up in true comicbook fashion when he decides to join the fray and the others can't defeat him as he keeps sinking into the swamp after each attack he makes, fully regenerating him.

Or better yet, have them duke it out in Scaena, on the stage where Juste is telling his version of Hamlet. That would make very interesting viewing.

Oh, and I place the life savings of al the FoS on Gwydion.

[Gonzoron of the FoS]

I think you'll have trouble selling tickets to that one, what with the warning you'll have to put out: WARNING: viewing this spectacle may induce horror checks with DC > 30.


Welcome back God Brain. Looking forward to your Bluetspur work. The question I'd most like to see answered is: What did this particular elder brain do to be more evil than all the others? (Always the problem with evil-species darklords). IIRC, the BoS version did a decent job of it by making him human to begin with, which allows for a fall into darkness. But most illithids are already firmly evil.
