Tepest: Land of Fairy Tales and Folklore The Famed and the Infamous – All our favorite storybook characters are here in one form or another (plus a few references that I'm sure went over my head). I especially like that Mistmaster turned Little Red Riding Hood into a frickin' wolfwere. That's the k...

Alright, everyone. It's time for me to switch hats from author to critic. Here's my first batch of reviews! The Mist-Borne Post This is an interesting mechanism to tie Darklords together, especially ones that reside in the (relatively) more inaccessible Islands of Terror. I appreciate the callback t...

Thanks to everyone for all the high praise. I really appreciate it. I'm glad my small contributions to the setting have proven both fun and useful to others. Ultimately, this is a group effort and this community is extremely blessed with a lot of talented and passionate people. I'd like to thank th...

I like Ian and SkiBird's ideas! So much so that my mind is trying to combine them... 1) We start with a fairly advanced case of transposition (Stage 4) that was interrupted by an exorcist. Unfortunately the transfer subject was so far gone that they were killed during the exorcism ritual. 2) Even th...

You ask me this question?

Really?

More than 700!

I was afraid/in awe of that based of the 13+ articles (not that I'm complain ing)! If this thing gets any more popular it might be time to break it in two. Halloween in April, anyone?

On the other hand, I am not fond of the idea. Why? Because a fiend that "dies" does not die in the way humanoids do. It's either banished back to its plane or its ephemeral matter, what for humans is the soul, goes back to the plane or something. It is not judged the way dead mortals are....

Hey all. I am brainstorm ideas for next year's QTR and struck upon the idea of creating an undead demon. Has anyone ever attempted such a thing before? The backstory is that there is an exorcist type cleric running around battling various fiendish incursions (via transpositions and summoning rituals...

I like the concept! And I'm also happy to say that there've been some ideas proposed before on a similar train of thought, in this thread here: https://www.fraternityofshadows.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11122 (I forgot that I made this thread last year, so if this feels like a shameless plug, please...

The problem with the Shadowborn Cluster, at least the way I see it, is that Elena Faith-hold sucks all of the air out of the room. (Don't worry, I'll present some solutions to this issue below.) By far, she's the biggest personality in the cluster and the first one that PCs are likely to ever hear a...

There is a distinct advantage to having canon materials presented by an unreliable narrator such as "S" or Dr. van Richten: The narrator might be wrong . Ultimately, although canon provides some excellent guidelines, I believe it should be used to inspire, not constrain, creativity. While...

I found a recipe for Lichnee, also known as a potion of transformation , a highly poisonous mixture that had to be imbibed as part of an evil ritual to become a lich. This looks like a good scenario as adventurers try to find what goes on behind some disappearances or murders they realise that some...

Hi, does anyone has had any use for the 10 lost noble families of Mordent? Most of them died out before 579 BC, so I find it quite hard to link them to anything in my campaign. Why did they all had to go, having still existing families, petals with a curse like the Wescote's, is much easier. Of cou...

Maybe this the one you mean this one from p115 in Denizens of Darkness? Its not actually a tree with roots, but more just a standalone root system. I'll just put the description so the copyright Gods dont get displeased :gabrielle: https://i.imgur.com/Vkeo9Bb.jpg By the gods, I think you got it! Th...
