Well... but soth in Ravenloft had its impact on Margareth Weiss.. since if you read the Soth death passage in the War of Souls Trilogy, you got dubious expressions like: "in the darkness i could see her face one more time", and a entire "climax", that in my view, comes from the R...

A point I missed: Now defending my 5 appointments: 2 - S isn't a GC children, and neither a azalin clone - definitiv. Why: --- The clone thing is based on: ---- Azalin never would use one of his sons to a experiment (see King of Dead; Lord of Necropolis); Ah, but he did . Lowellyn Dachine was one o...

1 - Steve is the creator of the GC, making something with this char without his permission would be at least.... wrong. If not face eventual copyrights problem (like Soth and the big trouble TSR vs Margareth Weis, that WotC needed to solve). 2 - Even with the trouble of the reality wrinkles, the gaz...

Now defending my 5 appointments: 1 - GC and his children aren't direct linked to the metaplot - definitiv. Why: --- Read about the GC scheme on Steve miller website; --- The reality wrinkle issue, if it were really important, it would disrupt the demiplane fabric duo the power of the reality wrinkle...

We can add about S not being GC Children: hmmmm..... after all reality wrinkles for half fiends are up to DM, and a "not wanted" problem. About S 1 - i don't believe she is a clone, its more to be another GC children; 3 - Why S should be clone and not a GC children? It was actually confirm...

I'd like to know where you're getting this, since looking back over this thread, I see only the last item confirmed. The rest is speculation, and it seems to me that it's heavily mixed with wishful thinking in your case. Now some question: 1 - Where is S from? Darkon, of course. If she'd been from ...

hmmm... after 11 pages we got some facts (and a dread possibility) 1 - GC and his children aren't direct linked to the metaplot - definitiv. 2 - Reality wrinkles have nothing to do with metaplot or ToUD - definitiv. 2 - S isn't a GC children, and neither a azalin clone - definitiv. 3 - S is a van Ri...

4. Death Undaunted. Literally the Missing Link in Ravenloft. As I understood it, this document was supposed to be the link between 2nd and 3rd Ed, simply explaining a lot of the stuff we are now discussing If you read the NON CANNON novel Lord of Necropolis, i believe you find the link that is miss...

I start believing that this "reality wrinkle" and "half fiend" issue is one of the troubles that wasn't planned by the authors.... beside it would make the Darklord power to close borders a really joke... And how in the hells Malocchio could be a "native outsider"? It i...

That's simple: the GC is a outsider + the darklord (in a certain degree is too a outsider or a special being, since it is a captured being and focus of the dark powers) + dukkar= special + special + special = special child. So Malocchio has a reality wrinkle (especial ability) because of this combin...

Isolde is a celestial being and has reality wrinkle affecting the carnival.


About malocchio having reality wrinkle i agree with Malus Black that it is because he is a Dukkar (+ son of a Darklord), and not because he is a half-fiend.

The other option of curse was "forbiding curiosity"- everytime you feel a compulsion in explore the unkown - But which effects this would have in game mechanics (i don't want a fanatic kamikaze paladin)? that's my trouble... PS: About Van Richtem curse being a personal one... you never kno...
