Shadowborn resources

Post by Willowhugger »

I'm trying to figure out how to make Avonleigh not suck and I was curious. Is there any good resources on the Shadowborn cluster out there?

I know there's Dark Lords, Shadowborn, and Islands of Terror but that's it.

That's pretty much it. Add "Light in the Belfrey", Dungeon magazine #31 "Bane of the Shadowborn", Champions of the Mist, and Van Richten's Arsenal to your list & that's all I can think of. The text to LitB and BotS used to be available for download on the Kargatane site, but were removed when they released their 'official' website status. I'm sure someone here may still have them if you need them for your game.
I only wish I had retired sooner!

I wouldn't mind either honestly.

I'm trying to work out what to do with Ebonbane and Avonleigh at this point for my games.

In what ways do you think it sucks? Granted, its not the best cluster, but Nidila was generally okay - and since Faithhold is the only active darklord, I figure the whole cluster is just like a bigger Nidila with some saftey zones and an easily avoidable deathtrap

Actually, that's one of the reasons....Nidalia is a great domain yet so much of the others seem...unchallenging.

Ebonbane is stuck in Caine's body and Morgoth is....well what IS he up to.

I tried to use the Legend of Zelda of all things to spruce it up.

Don't forget the Book of Shadows framing fiction. Great moodsetter....
