During a brief period of time in Roots of Evil, Ravenloft expanded to include every Prime Material plane, So, the second scenario would mess with every Prime Material Plane the way the first would do with the Demiplane. But couldn't someone from outside both the Demiplane and the Prime Material Pla...

I wish I knew whether or not that was the right way to translate words like "in", that start with vowels, into Pig Latin.
Granted. You now have that knowledge, but have forgotten everything else you've ever known.

I wish my players wouldn't metagame so much.

Madame Eva: Yes, it will.

Dear Hags of Tepest, how do each of you deal with having to share rulership rather than having all the power to yourself?

Good idea about the tail.

As for the restless dead, I've been thinking of one of the killed staffed coming back as a ghost. Possibly possessing people in an attempt to investigate his/her death. It might make the PC nervous to find random people asking too many questions about what he caused.

6% chance for a PCheck for such a crime is a bit low IMO. OK, he didn't killed 14 people himself, but it was a betrayal that ended in the death of 14 people! I believe that a 14% chance (1%/each dead) would be more appropriate. I kind of agree with Jester here about his direct guilt in the deaths, ...

There's always bonuses to Bluff/Sense Motive but penalties to Diplo/Intimidate. Maybe oily skin giving him a bonus in grapples. A forked tongue. Maybe the ability to cast disguise self. I thought about the forked tongue, but I'm thinking he'll become more rat-like rather than snake-like. I like the...

My mistake. Thankfully, none of my players know any French and even if they did, they've never seen his title in print, so I could always claim they misheard the "p". :?

My first failed Powers Check

This past weekend, I had my first ever PC fail a powers check. (I'm so excited. :twisted: ) Here's the background: The PC's were hired on by a rich noble in Dementlieu to basically be fodder for adventure stories (The Compte is a big old geek). He sends them out on tasks and then hires bards to writ...

Am I insane then in thinking that the roots of Ravenloft are I6, renowned as a classic dungeoncrawl?
I seem to remember one of the first chapter in several version of the Ravenloft material being named: "From Gothic Roots".

he hunts werewolves - natural and afflicted - not to make the world a better place but rather out of racial hatred and that their pelts might furnish his den
I thought werewolves reverted to human form on death. Is he furnishing his den with human skin, or am I mistaken?
