Re: Review thread of VRGtRL 5e

The 5E VRGTR has a couple of good things in it, like the Dhampir (a lot of 5E players I've talked to like the option) and I'Cath gets a major upgrade from the vague sketches and Orientalist nonsense that surrounded it when it first appeared. A lot of the gender-flipping seems unnecessary, but it mos...

Re: It is back!!! What we do know about VR Guide to Ravenlof

Gotta say, I'm pretty cheesed that Azalin is
VIEW CONTENT:
out there floating around and no longer lord of Darkon as Firan Zal'honan
but the more I read of this book, the more I'm feeling like they really half-butted the whole thing. Disappointing.

Re: It is back!!! What we do know about VR Guide to Ravenlof

i was initially at least a little hopeful for this because I was like, "Oh, cool, 5E folks can learn about the Core and stuff..." and then more and more info kept coming out about it and I've frankly been dying inside a little. The only Darklord that sounds remotely interesting is the Vikt...

Re: Dark Days in Zherisia OOC

Been home from the hospital for a while and now my pain has mostly subsided (even though the itching is maddening) and I have a rest to prop my arm up on, so I intend to keep this puppy going. Going to take today to catch up on the posts I missed for various things; should have a post up tomorrow to...

Re: What would you include in a Gothic Horror map symbol set

Only things I could come up with are Victorian accoutrements like a top-hat, monocle, etc, or maybe the Symbol of Ravenloft and some other related sigils.

Re: Dark Powers Checks

In my opinion, which I feel seems to echo that of others here, the powers given should fit the nature of the crimes that they're committing. This might be harder if the character is just, well, a bastard, because there's more of a random element to things if they're just pulling out all the evil cr...

Re: Dark Days in Zherisia (Chapter One: A Loaf of Bread Astr

Even as she swept up the cards that'd been given to her by Miranda and Pavel, a rolling motion in her wrists as she took them, re-integrated them into the deck and shuffled them easily, Isabella looked from the two querents to the others. "I am partially Vistana, yes," she said, "on m...

Re: Dark Days in Zherisia (Chapter One: A Loaf of Bread Astr

The door had creaked open easily when pushed upon, and the longer the assembled group sat, the more the scent of various spices and scents began to fume from several wall sconces in the back of the room, braziers that looked like butterfly-winged elves smoldering softly. There were several wildly-pa...

Re: Dark Days in Zherisia OOC

Howdy all! Sorry for the delay in my response! I'm just getting done an Intermediate Java Programming class and I had to do a program that took me the better part of 80 hours to complete in the second half of this past week. I'm almost done with classes for the year, so I'll be able to post much mor...

Dark Days in Zherisia (Chapter One: A Loaf of Bread Astray)

3 September, 752 Barovian Calendar August had gone out in a tempestuous rush, a full week of torrential rainstorms pounding the city and flushing some of the grime down into the labyrinthine undercity. With the prior month's departure, the weather had begun to become bitterly cold even as the rains ...

Re: Seeking players for a Pathfinder-based Ravenloft game

Actually, first post'll be up tomorrow. I've always kind of had a thing in pbps where the first post really sets the tone, at least in my experience, and I'm a bit too tired to give it my best, so I'm gonna grab a few winks and finish up what I have when I wake up (it's gonna be a decent-sized first...
