Jester's 4e Ravenloft Pamphlet

Just a note, as the new "Dark Pact" already uses Charisma I'd rather make new powers that use one of the other two ability scores, but I also can't argue with the logic of the mists having always responded to strong personalities.

Community projects would be a good forum.

In case anyone hasn't seen the first post in this thread, the Player's Guide was updated yesterday (and I completely re-wrote the first thread since it's being 'preserved' and re-used).

Fewer typos. Revised power(s). New magic items. Landscape formatting.

I have now run 2 different modules twice each using a chunk of the 4e Ravenloft considerations.

Character creation for the third bout of each is likely to come in the next couple weeks after midterms wrap up.

Players comments along with mine still in collation.

Jester, you are a life-saver, as my group is wanting me to run a Ravenloft game, but they refuse to play any edition but 4th now. (I think they're addicted to the action movie feel lol.)

It's probably due for another once-over and revision but probably still workable at the moment.
Let me know how it plays for you. You can never have too much playtesting.

Will do. I'm reading over it now as I update all my Monte Mal stuff to 4e. (Yes this means that a new, expanded edition of the Monte Mal Netbook is on its way eventually.)

One thing I noticed while reading over the Mist Pact: is there a paragon path associated? I may have missed it but it appears to not exist, which could be a problem for a MistLock, once they hit level 11.

It's on my to-do list.

Ok. It's not a particularly big deal at the moment (for my campaign at least,) as I'm starting the party off at 5th level.

The newest update is about 95% done with two new paragon paths (for the mistlock) and some revisions to the Monster Hunter (as it was pointed out on the WotC board that it should also work for ranged characters).

Still working on the 3e transition adventure (slowly) and the monster book with alternate powers and allergen rules.

FYI: the player's guide just received an update.

Next is backgrounds for Ravenloft regions and maybe some monsters.

Small update, the players and DM guide now have pdf bookmarks.

Jester of the FoS · Post by **Jester of the FoS** » Sun Dec 21, 2008 5:09 pm

Updated again to add backgrounds (as seen in the Forgotten Realms Player's Guide and one of the free issues of Dragon).
Likely the last update for the Player's Guide for the foreseeable future, happy with it and the DM's Guide. And as I'm using Open Office for the PDFing I don't like making too many changes as that program (get what ya pay for) likes to remove formatting, move tables, and otherwise make my life a living heck between updates. This most recent time I went in and found all my images missing.

Working on a monster booklet now. Going slow as there's alot of monsters I want to do plus templates and the like.
