Re: The Black Vault Haul
Affair on the Concordant Express (I am not a fan of this one but it is obviously Cyre 1313 involved, maybe the PC's are onboard as spirits with the goal actually being finding a magical item that can bring them back to life but if someone wants to follow the adventure as it is with a few changes ma...

Re: Thoughts on... Verbrek
A quick idea to add a non-werewolf related (sorta) plot hook to Verbrek: Ther Winterfang mountains are known for rituals to the wolf-god and its deep winters. What if the mountain also contains a prisoner, Bilius , from Monsterious Compendium 3? Transported during the attempted exorcism, what if he ...

Re: Thoughts on... Verbrek
What do you think the relationship was between Bakholis, Gundar, and Nathan? Cause river-trade flows through all three realms, so they would have to deal with each other at somepoint.

Castle Ravenloft-esque Dungeon Crawl Locations
Castle Ravenloft is THE example of a dungeon crawl in the land of mists, and similar canidates for such a crawl in another land have been mentioned before: Castle Avernus, the Black Vault, Gryphon Hill. And we've seen fan attempts, with my personal favorite being Castle Falkenstein (still my third f...

Re: Terror Tracks
They do a certain amount of uniquness, though I feel the parts of the paths dwelve so much into that particular characters backstory they lose some portability if someone else wants to use them (then again, customization is half the fun!) I admittedly haven't read enough of Wartorn Cluster storyline...

Re: The Black Vault Haul
Most likely Styrix brought the Manual of the Planes along with her when summoned, and has placed all sorts of wards and curses on it. It could be that the mists has subtly changed the nature of the tome, making it have forbidden knowledge of the nature of the land of mists, but those who follow it f...

Re: The Markovian Survey
This was mentioned during another thread on a Markov one-shot, but what about the ideas of the pig broken-ones being an analoge for orcs in the setting. Even if in just small things (details here and their), they could be a good callback to the original orcs, back when they where just pig-men. I kno...

Re: Children of the Night: Giants
The romanians and their ancestors the Dacians had their own giants: the Jidovi. Said to have constructed great mounds and mountains, with areas even being named after them (ie: The Jidovi's hill, the Jidovi's table) and was even a form of measuring unit for several meters. It is said one of the king...

Re: The Markovian Survey
I do like the idea of Markov turning his more impressive/artist guests into Broken-Ones once he bores of them or they begin to sense something is wrong. Markov's estate almost becomes this unsettling display of fancy artists and aristocrats who are just slightly...off (after all, Markov won't surrou...

Re: Falk-fury rages on!
Honestly more fitting for Lamordia, but what about the something based on the Krupp Family/Corporation? A family of iron workers, they came to fame during the Napoleonic Wars, beginning with a prize Napolean offered to any who could meet French artillery production needs now that British trade was c...

Re: The Markovian Survey
Mephisto, did you base the pigs behaviors (being very smart and wrecking the gardens) based on the history of the introduction of pigs to the Americas by the Spanish which saw them destablize the Caribbean, including ruining Mango farms? Cause if so, clever clever ![Brain :Brain:](./images/smilies/rl_elderbrain.gif)

Re: Children of the Night: Walking Dead
Instead of the Mound, my other undead Dread Elemental is The Unliving Lightning (corny name I know). Born from an attempt at creating a Flesh Golem gone awry, this unique Dread Element is compelled to arc between bodies, animating them as Charged Zombies, which have an unnatural speed and necrotic l...

Re: The Markovian Survey
The Boritsi Trading Company (this feels far more appropriate to Sri Raji than anywhere else and you and I both know why lol). Every other Dread Possibility I think really fits Markovia to a T, I just wanted to single out those particular few. I always thought the Boritsi Trading Company was more li...
