More Gaz please.
The Scourange gazetteer is great. Are there going to be any more of these, or do I have to make up all that detail about everything except the landlocked core and scourange myself?

Yeah, the only potentially non-canon idea was to add Nosos to the Zherisian cluster. Note that Nosos is a canon domain (detailed in Islands of Terror), but has never been part of a cluster. It was always an island, heavily overdeveloped and coated in pollution, basically your nightmare Industrial Revolution town.
Anyway, if that's what you meant, then no, Nosos wasn't added to the Zherisian cluster. It's still just Paridon and Timor.
(Unwanted note: I really think Nosos should have been added... "The Shining Bay" cluster really would have rocked)

When the people who own the line publish a book (in this case, that'd be Wizards of the Coast) that book is canon, unless and until some book published later supersedes it. Therefore, nothing the FoS puts out is canon, unless we could somehow wangle "official Ravenloft website" status from WotC. They don't seem too enthused about doing that, so we just attempt to produce work that is a) consistent with previous canon, and b) of high enough quality to merit future writers (not to mention DMs!) using it as a basis for further development of the setting.Scarycount wrote:Is it being changed to a canon domain? Who decides what's canon anyway?

I'd also been impressed by ScS's Shining Bay cluster, and had also hoped to get it into the coming Gaz. Ah well, at least we've got a Mistway connecting them, and DM's are always free to add Nosos into the cluster or not.

Hey thanks! It was fun doing it, and I'm very proud the final result is pretty good. All the team should get the praise for that one.Gwenfloor wrote:The Souragne Gaz. is good enough to be an official product. I would be pleased to see another one come out.
Now wait till you see the Zherisia report. This one will be very good too

And we've announced today we are going toward the Nocturnal Sea domains. If it works well, we might do both sea at once. It depends on fan reactions and the cool ideas that will be submitted

To reiterate what Gwenfloor said Joël (& Fos).
I forget if I told you directly or wrote it on the boards when it came out, but to me, the Souragne gaz had the quality level of professional work. It's right up there with Champs of Darkness.

I couldn't help it.
It's just as good as the official Gaz series.
