Re: Could Transgenic Humanity fit in Lamordia?

First, I appreciate the name-dropping of a new 3rd party setting----I always like trying to collect and sift through old stuff like that so thanks! Second, I think that it's possible to incorporate this into Lamordia. I'd point to NeoTiamat's Nations of Progress in QtR 22 as a well-beloved example o...

Re: Lamordia: Inspirations, Legends, and Plothooks

I cast Thread Necromancy! Y'know, Lamordia's cold. I know we mentioned this earlier in the thread with the idea of man trying to dominate nature and elements of Frostpunk , as well as Lamordians being a generally closed off and cold people. On that, I was curious, in a very morbid way, what the sui...

Re: Is Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft worth getting if you own all the 2E/3E books?

I was drawn into Ravenloft with Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, so I'm biased towards it and its remakes despite using official lore from 2e/3e for my games (and overall preferring the latter to the former). As others have said, I really liked the new I'Cath, I appreciated the slight expansion of ...

Re: PC stats for Howling One Calibans?

Perhaps, alongside a "soul-rending shriek", the Howling Ones can be made to be a mix of Witchspawn (somewhat related to what alhoon was saying) and the Banshee strain of caliban? Aside from the "soul-rending shriek", I'd think that there would be some affinity for the Near Ethere...

Re: Intrigue and secrecy in a venice

Masks, and the general themes of intrigue and secrecy, might also find themselves in another place that most might not have thought of: Nosos. Not just the masks that the nobles of that toxic place wear for social events, but the regular masks to avoid infection (think of the Pandemic times) or gas ...

Re: Additional monsters for Hazlan

On a tangential-but-kinda/sorta-still-related note, you're really good at finding imagery to depict the domains in canon, Mephisto, as well as the monsters that you imagine being in there. Any chance you could do that for more than just Hazlan but other domains (that might be the focus of a separate...

Good find, Mephisto! I’ll make sure to add it then.

Re: Community Idea: Settlements!

Maybe, maybe not---change is a good thing in the land of Mists, and Lady Adeline's been too comfy for too long. Plus, if she goes, then that gives the Baron some chance for character growth, which is nice.

I recall those details from your Invidia survey of the Mistworld, Mistmaster! Always nice to see your take on Ravenloft.

Any particular sites or locales for this project that you might have thought of?

Re: Community Mapping: Invidia

Y’know, I never saw the Mordred similarity until you pointed it out, but I’ll definitely use it in my games! And I agree, some place on the map should be dedicated to Phagius. And while I haven’t used Invidia yet in a campaign, I do have plans to and rereading its write-up made me appreciate it more...

Re: Community Mapping: Invidia

Quiet? How about our April Fools? It was a big success this year! I suppose you're right! The map is nicely done but it is missing the small town of Ravienne mentioned first in QtR#16 ( Olerick's Collequial Guides ). Thibodeaux's Rest Home provides comfort to a decidedly different clientele. It is ...

Community Mapping: Invidia

Hey everyone! I hope that everyone's Easter and April Fools and other holidays went well. I figured that things have been a bit quiet in recent days and wanted to do something that would involve the community. It's pretty well-known that Ravenloft has a lot areas on the map that tend to be neglected...

Re: Ideal Ravenloft Videogame

I was rereading Gazetteer II's write-up on Falkovnia, and the section on paper trails and travel docuemnts reminded me of this thread. Do you think a game like Papers, Please would be fun if it were themed to be at a Falkovnian border checkpoint?
