Café de Nuit

Salutations,

I'm not a rule-freak, or stat-monger, but I do love Ravenloft stories, and I have linguistic and editorial skills. I can't promise to devote a lot of time to your project, but I would be willing to take a look at your stuff and offer you advice on how to organize it.

If you want...

Just a wild guess here but maybe the mistway scenaio was established before the full details regarding BJ's identity became known, or it's just another red herring a la Ravenloft.

As for food, it was my understanding that the shortage of food was for the brief period after the Grand Conjunction where the domain collapsed to only be the city of Paridon...the maps in the 3.0 campaign setting show the countryside around Paridon has returned somehow.

Yes, the map doesn't ...

Love that font.

Another good source is http://www.dafont.com/ it even has a "gothic" section.

I don't see keeping horses as being necessarily unrealistic, even with the food shortage, but I do however imagine horse-theft (for purposes of nourishment) to be a serious problem in Paridon.

Cabbage, Llana, I'm thinking a cool idea could be to have Paridon appoint a "horse guard" to the wealthy ...

My feeling on it is that Paridon could use a bit of nudge technologically, maybe not to the point of repeating rifles, fully-fledged steam locomotives and such to avoid bleeding into MotRD territory, but a few little upgrades here and there would do it no harm.

...

Where's the love Cabbage, where's the love?

*sigh

Well, let me see what I've got so far in terms of notes that might be of use, and other ideas that merit development. Based on where my revisions go, I might give the technologies department a shot.

we'll see

Paridon will live again!

I love it when religion and pseudo-science are mixed together. :roll: Please tell me they haven't learned about the Living Brain. "Behold the future, gentlemen!" :P

Freemasons gone wild? A la Aleister Crowley?! Noooooo! :shock: :lol:

My deep-seated affection for Paridon stems mostly from my ...

I seem to recall Strahd mentioning this crystal ball in I Strahd, The War with Azalin Rex. He recieved it as a gift from the Vistani did he not?

It's funny actually because I hadn't factored in the Conjunction/Theodore Raines material into it. Not a bad idea.

The 7th Order's apocalyptic notions were more abstract, kind of like Jehova's Witnesses that keep warning against the End of Days but aren't quites certain when and how it's all going ...

I parIdon you... hehehe...

Oh god... groan...

You know there's laws against that kind of thing, Des...

:P

Actually, bad puns are like a secret tradition among gamers I think. I remember sitting through that aweful recent adapatation of King Arthur and crying out "All Woads lead to Rome!" at ...

I will design to reply even though you don't like my hero. :P

Anybody else interested in writing about Paridon? What about you, Des, or did you have another city in mind that you'd like to see covered? :)

As I may have mentioned before, I am a drooling slut for anything Paridon, and would like ...

While I may actually be the only person left on the planet that hasn't read the DC, I'm familiar enough with the themes at play to deliberate a little.

I like what you were saying Joel regarding this kind of a "secret race" for lost holy scriptures or artifacts that have now become the weapons in a ...

boooyah!

Now back to the topic at hand, I must say the Wildlands are a tasty morsel for development.
