Re: Quoth the Raven #30 reaction thread.
I've used the concept of a phantasmagorum at least three times in QtR over the past few years, always as a side note in describing a sinkhole of evil. If I do it again, I should probably give it more attention and life. Writing from the perspective of a phantasmagorum that is just coming to conscio...

Re: Quoth the Raven #30 reaction thread.
Larva and Satyral Larva made its debut in QtR29, and its re-release in QtR30 shows how the story has not only expanded but matured. For example, Stanton F. Fink has added three paragraphs to the beginning which help to define the location and the tone. I particularly enjoyed the snide restaurant hu...

If they were all like Gollum, they would either have destroyed each other as competing predators, or have their holes set apart to avoid competition.

Re: Pandora's Box
I only just now saw your use of a devoratrix for this scenario. Fun! But what attracted her? *cough* Another reason why the Red Haunt chose Paridon to meet with her daughter Clementine in 742 was because the former discovered information about the Chuangguan while infiltrating one of the Cabal of 1...

Re: Quoth the Raven #30 reaction thread.
Larva & Satyral: I want to like these stories better. Stanton shows a spritely, lively writing style, and paints a vivid scene. Sounds, sights and scents virtually leap off the page. Unfortunately Satyral left me confused. Is there a time loop in effect at the end? What happened to the MC's fat...

Re: QtR 30 is open for submissions!
Page count for the next QtR? You ask me this question? Really? More than 700! I was afraid/in awe of that based of the 13+ articles (not that I'm complain ing)! If this thing gets any more popular it might be time to break it in two. Halloween in April, anyone? You really want me to put more people...

Re: QtR 30 is open for submissions!
I am on the very cusp of finishing and submitting my entry... but unless I'm allowed to submit more in October, no Chibiloft this year. I am so sorry. The article is a 100+-page monster, and it nearly got me. You're not spoiling my latest Register excerpts, are you? Different kind of monster. :wink...

I've finished two of the three entries I'm submitting, I want to submit all three together, though, I may submit those two soon if my muse isn't cooperating with this last story.

Re: Phylactery Questions
Interesting but still high level (18th lvl undead wizard), I was thinking something to be usead as an adversary for lower level parties. Something like a ghoul or wight that feeds on magical energy to continue its existence. Well anyway a conversion to 3e of the ach-shadow is appropriate so maybe I...
