Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
Is Abfalduz vine in the Falkovnian section of Gaz II based on coca leaves? Did each author make up his/her own contribution to herbalism in the Lands of Mist or was there some overarching plan, perhaps with that information all gathered in one place? For example, with the entry in the Falkovnian sec...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
Dr. Vilhelm Mikki, the foreign alienist who moved to Chateaufaux and set up shop, is from Lamordia, Falkovnia, somewhere else?

Re: Ebb remembers being an outlander?
A species that doesn't care much about childraising can nonetheless take deep offense at the idea that any of its members are deemed to be only so much leather out of which inferior races are planning to cut coats. Dragons are prideful however chaotic evil they might be. That doesn't mean that they ...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
John, Where precisely did you envision the Watcher's Stronghold from JAM? Right on the edge of the frontier with G'Henna, now overlooking the Shadow Rift? Nearer to the new Transumbra Road? On the Vale of Tears or the Mountains of Misery side of the political line dividing the G'Hennan-Darkonian fro...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
In the 2ed Requiem the residences of post-apocalypse Il Aluk were undead of a wide variety of sorts, including liches, with the particular type being something of a function of character class. In the 3ed Gazetteer take on Necropolis and the Slain the types of undead were scaled by to skeleton, zomb...

Ebb remembers being an outlander?
We have previously established that Azalin can suspend the activity of the Book of Names so that a given foreigner doesn't forget that he or she is a foreigner. This courtesy has been extended the to ambassador of Nova Vaasa for example. Is there any evidence that it has been extended to Ebb?

3ed replacement for regeneration spell attack against golem?
Van Ritchen's Guide to the Created featured an innovative use of the 2ed regeneration spell against a flesh golem, both in terms of fluff and crunch. 3ed rules doubly prohibit the spell's use against a flesh golem: regenerate can only targeted living creatures and regenerate is subject to spell resi...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
With respect to Nova Vaasa and Hazlan as they appear in the Gaz, is the head of the Church of the Lawbringer deliberately attempting to precipitate a schism that would see the Hazlani branch attempt to break away and that would serve as the pretext for mounting a state invasion that is intended to p...

Re: 15th Anniversary of the Book of Souls Netbook!
I keep finding curious references to the Undertaker in respect to Darkon. For example, from the author's notes to Gaz II, "I think Chris pointed out I made no mention of the Baron of Il Aluk, who used to be one step down from Azalin, or the Undertaker, so I created Marasyk and Jadis. " Or ...

Yes, the Gaz tells us that much.Ryan Naylor wrote:Kobolds who oppose Drakov's forces.
But what is the backstory, class, goals, motives, and strategy of the Baslisk? And what is his relation to the Lizard?

Re: Blaustein!
Actually thinking about, emptied barrels are likely to be a chief source of burnable wood on the island. So perhaps screech would work. One burns old barrels to steam the rum out of new barrels, then one lets the latter dry, before setting them alight.

Re: Blaustein!
Howe was, if I recall correctly, the captain engaged in the previous gazetteer on the Nocturnal Sea. I trust this displacement from one sea to the other is accounted for. Alternatively, a new and different captain would add to the stock of readily available NPCs.
