Café de Nuit

That would be the 2nd ed. book Domains of Dread. 'Natch!

Here's something a little more on topic. I've roughed out the basic flavor I want each school to have. I'll flesh out the details of the courses and professors later. (I've limited myself to these 12 for sanity's sake!) Academie de Richemulot – Pont-A-Museau, Richemulot – very similar in nature and ...

Depending on how much info your party knows, I would suggest not setting up either Ivan or Ivana as the master villains in whatever plot you go with. Instead, have some other powerful noble be the strongarm bully/sponsor/plothook. Borca's big enough for other, less powerful menaces. Besides, then yo...

I want to know what those RGPA adventures are all about. Are they considered canon? Where can they be found?

I second the whole "whoever is killed by this blade comes back, but with dragon powers" schtick, too. You can keep track of however many kills this character makes, then have an army of them show up all at once at sometime in the future at the most inopportune time. (Or, to increase their ...

When it comes to character introductions in game, my thoughts naturally gravitate towards those things that bring disparate groups of people together in real life: work, school, clubs, family reunions, etc. Take the army, for example. You have a large group of people who start out having only two th...

Or you could try the layers-upon-layers approach... Have the first love interst be just that: a romantic sidetrek. But her vampy friend... that's a whole 'nother story! You could have your red widow hang by her side, or just flutter around the background. Or you could feed your players clues to her ...

Hi All, I'm gearing up for an extended campaign and have been thinking alot about my story background when this thought crossed my mind: What if some of the more recently created domains (such as Sithicus, Hazlan, and Richemulot) had their "birth" dates pushed back a century? That way, dis...

So I've been doing a little reading up on medieval universities, and found something interesting that I'd like to incorporate into Ravenloft - the idea of the Quadrium and the Trivium. These two groups formed the core education of most universities, and after completing them students were considered...

Hi All, Thanks for all the food for thought. Since this is still the idea stage for me I will definitely do more research on medieval universities and colleges. I hope it will have an authentic feel, even if I jury rig a couple of things for the sake of some cool ideas I have. Anyway, here's my thou...

Here's what I've found in the Book of S_ series:

Mordentshire University – Mordentshire, Mordent (BoSouls, pg.7)
University of Karg – Karg, Darkon (BoSouls, pg46 – possible reference?)
University of Ludendorf – Ludendorf, Lamordia (BoSouls, pg. 69 – unnamed reference)

Okay, thanks for all the input. I guess I should give you what I already put together so things don't get too redundant. I've also incorporated your suggestions... Gaz I Grand Hall of Song and Dance – Skald, Kartakass, music Harmonic Hall – Harmonia, Kartakass, music Red Academy – Ramulai, Hazlan, m...

Hi All, I was thinking of putting together an article about the various universities that can be found in the Core. Currently, I've skimmed over all the Gazetteers for canon ones. I was wondering if there were any fan developed one out there, or ones that were mentioned in passing that others have d...

Allow me to add my vote. I've been in a gazetteer mood lately, and liked the taste of the Isle of Ravens article. Very well done.

While I'm at it, let me add my congratulations to all. Here's to another 13 issues of the Raven!
