AI generated stories are not bad.
Recently, I got to try API's ChatGPT-4-Turbo. I asked it to make a short fantasy story in 6 parts and then I asked it to expand each of those parts. The story it made was surprisingly good. I have tried it in the past with less successful results, although this time I used a specifically made "...

Re: Origin of Vistani, Ezra, Hala?
The Church of Ezra in your game has a Catholic-like Hierarchy? So, there is one person that has absolute authority over the doctrine, bishops, cardinals etc?
Or do you mean ... something else? If something else, what?
Is there an article in the QtR about the religions in your game?

Re: Origin of Vistani, Ezra, Hala?
Faith gives hope and certainty. A powerful church like the Ezran church changes the facts on the ground. And thus, Faith is sure to take root in such dark places. Especially when you have people, even few people, that can actually do miracles or use magic. I have no issues with established religion...

Re: Origin of Vistani, Ezra, Hala?
Considering how little I know about Wicca and that, at least IMO, Wicca is not a well defined religious movement, I have trouble with the Hala / Wicca thing.
On the other hand, Ezra is dissimilar to Christian church in a great many ways. The Inquisition is not even Ezra's IIRC.

Re: Fiend's reality wrinkle and 5th edition lair effects
If Vecna couldn't break out without absorbing Iuz, I don't see how Gwydeon or Ebonbane could.

That's true with everything though. People are stepping on eggshells.

Re: Origin of Vistani, Ezra, Hala?
So... no, I am very disillusioned. These are not Lone-wolf quality books. TBF the Lone Wolf series is arguably the zenith of gamebooks in terms of quality. I've read/played a LOT of gamebook series, and none were ever as good (though some like Fighting Fantasy came pretty darn close at times, and I...

Re: Fiend's reality wrinkle and 5th edition lair effects
Those are both special cases. Ebonbane was IIRC already in the sword and is not the darklord , nor has a reality wrinkle. I.e. Ebonbane is not a "Fiend" but more like a sentient evil item. Gwydeon... by the current, 5e rules, I would say Gwydeon is not a fiend but an evil arch-fey. Those ...

Re: Origin of Vistani, Ezra, Hala?
Is that Arijani from Sri-Raji in the 2nd one? It is indeed. Where can I find them? Are they for sale somewhere, in ebook form? I don't want dead-tree books. They are very hard to bring all the way here. Wish I knew. Take a search at the usual places. I have them in dead-tree form. Even that is hard...
