Crosswords for Ravenloft

In a new campaign, just started, one of the PCs bought for her character a crossword book merely to irk another player. It was wonderful when he found out, as he had complained that you could buy one at all. Now it has become a fun little in-joke. And something to do with my time. So I created the first of the crosswords in her little book, and thought I'd share.

Original: Lands of the Core
Fixed link: Lands of the Core
REALLY Fixed link: Lands of the Core

Now, it is my own campaign canon Core, so there are a few additional domains, a few ignored, and some altered. It should still be solvable by any of you if you wanna take the time for the fun of it, though I will go ahead and note that Richemulot no longer exists in my campaign, and has been replaced with the domain of Ricoba.

As I make more, I'll probably go ahead and share them. Because why not?

Very cute! I got all except 3 of them, and only one of those 3 is in the official core, so I say that's pretty good.

(Also, one of them you spell differently than I think is canon, so it threw me. I knew I had the right answer but couldn't make it fit. Mistipedia agrees with me, but I haven't checked the books to confirm...)

Very nice! I like your approach. May I suggest you offer the crosswords to the site so the FoS can put them somewhere?

Well shoot! I thought I got all of them correct. Of course I would spell the hardest to spell flippin' country wrong. I'm going to fix it and put up a new one.

Thank you very much. And absolutely it can be put up somewhere for people to use for their own games! That's why I shared. :)

I've made another, this one for Languages of the Mists, though I suspect there may be too much personal canon and decisions from previous campaigns to this one for public use, but hey, I'll gladly share it. And heck, I'll share the Languages editorial written for the players if folks are interested.

Onli doubt, shouldn't it be Zherisia, and not Zheresia?

Dang it, good catch. I'll fix it soon. Need a lot of eyes on my stupid spellings, it seems.

Ok, hopefully NOW Lands of the Core is completely fixed. Check it. I'll update the top one, too.

The one I'm working on now is weapons. Huzzah!

Hi Edward, either you're very lost, or a spammer. :) In case it's the former, this is not a real cafe, it's a forum for discussing the Ravenloft horror RPG setting.
