Re: Jester's Review of Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft

Edit: i would just add i find REALLLLYYY weird that Lyssa Van Zarovich can now be the reincarnation of Tatyana. It is icky. And Tatyana was supposed to be a pure soul. Even saying that she can be reincarnated as a bloodthirsty, opportunistic monster-wannabe that actually turned to a monster is shoc...

Re: [VRGtR]: Alhoon's ramblings and discussions of them

I just got my copy of the book in the mail today and I've read chunks of it. I understand they couldn't keep everything that White Wolf did with the series so that mean no more Calibans (humanoids mutated by foul magic in the womb, their answer to Half-Orcs), outcast ratings, and the plotlines were...

Re: Some Vecna confusion... caused by the JWM Timeline??

Well, with a group of friends, we are trying to update the Burning Peaks cluster with our favored Greyhawk vilains (Vecna, Kass but also Iuz, Kuyss and some others). If you want the Vecna's timeline we created using official products and several Gygax interviews, i can post it here. It contain all h...

Re: Jester's Review of Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft

Sorry for the hiatus, IRl stuff were overwhelming recently. I waited this book because i felt our beloved setting needed to be dusted and, as Alhoon and Jester already said it, it worked for Har'akir, Borca or Bluetspur for example. I also like the change they made to the Shadowlands for example, Eb...

Re: maps update

wow... That's a lot of work. Making a whole world was my long term objective, i'm planning to make my campaign as a tv show, each season finishing on a big cliffhanger where the players provoke a change in the story or the world itself ( i don't like statu-quo, i prefer letting my players influence ...

Re: maps update

i supose it's an island of terror. The only thing i find strange is how none of the rivers never get out of it. All borders are made of mountains ?
To be honest i didn't had the time to read your work for now

Re: Saragoss

I wouldn't say we are harsh. As it is, even inside a cluster,Saragoss is a survival-horror island of terror. Perhaps one or two sessions but nothing more or a lot of work would be needed. I will be honest, i tried when i began making maps for my next campaign but i have no idea about it. I made it a...

Re: The Burning Peaks

Ulraunt's Guide to the Shadowfell (DM's Guild Product) has some basic information on the Burning Peaks including 5e stats for Vecna (challenge 38, 40 lair) Kas (challenge 35), Cavitian reavers (challenge 6), Cavitian vultures (CR 9), the hand the Eye (CR 18 each), and the Thing in the Shaft (statte...

Re: The Burning Peaks

I've approached the Burning Peaks as an example of what happens when a Dark Lord breaks the rules, and what happens when the Dark Powers are truly injured. Its just a complete mess of swirling mists and darkness, of burning wastelands and necromantic ruin. Miniature versions of the Requiem happen a...

Re: Saragoss

Saragoss, as written now, is just a short survival horror week end in hell. As lot of isles of terror coming from the second edition, Draga Saltbitter is just an obstacle for travelling PCs.

Re: The Burning Peaks

The worst recycling from TSR was the old card game Spellfire, with a sole pic, they were able to make four card for the worst case. It was a good game imo, unbalanced a lot (Vecna was a killer, hard to put on the battlefield but as soon as he was here, the game was won) but cheap and unpredictable. ...
