Quoth the Raven #31 (Halloween 2024) Correction Thread

[Joël of the FoS]

Please post here the correction you'd like to be added to the revised version of QtR 31.

To help me, please be as precise as you can, ex. with page number, and paragraph starting with "xyz" information.

When your typos/changes will be added to the book, I'll put a note on your post as "done".

I hope that there is still room to make edits because apparently the PDF I sent had a paragraph at the top that accidentally got added to the top of the document. (I keep it all as one giant document) and while we're fixing things, we might as well stick on a few more dread possibilities. The corrected version should be in your inbox.

Page 81 first column, Age of Darkness paragraph, at the bottom of the paragraph add: Barov I von Zarovich was a Count, a Terg military title reserved to vassal non-terg nobles. When he succesfully rebelled and created the free Baloki state of Vallaki, he was hailed king, but humbly kept the title Count. Count-King became the traditional title of the rulers of Vallaki .
Page 94 second column, Backcround Paragraph Line 2: Change Count-King of Barovia with Count-King of Vallaki.
Line 16, same paragraph, after the full stop, add: Strahd was now the King of a new nation, but he kept the traditional title of Count-King, only now he was Count-King of Barovia.
Page 96 second column, second line change Contersong with Countersong.
Page 97 Add the following Paragraph after the Wood Witch one:
New Oracle Curse:
Unbelievable
The Oracle has a -5 in all Bluff, Diplomacy and Intimidate checks no matter how honest she is being. Her Divination Spells Spellcasting level increase of 1 and she has no chance of failure even under the Mists influence ( normally a bank of the Mists gives a 10% chance to fail in 5 miles radius, 50 % chance to fail in 1 miles radius and 75 % chance to fail in 1000 feet radius. )
At level 5 the Oracle adds her Charisma modifier to her armor class as long she does not wear medium or heavy armour.
At level 10 the Oracle can cast Communion once a day as a Spell-like ability without any material component.
At level 15 every time the Oracle fails one ofthe checks she has a penality for to influence a NPC, the target of the failed check will instead get the Oracle curse penalty to a roll of the Oracle choise (Skill Check, Attack Roll, Saving Throw) for 1 hour per oracle level unless they pass a Will ST DC equal to 10+ half the Oracle level + the Oracle Charisma modifier.

Joël's note: STUFF ADDED TO V2, if you have more corrections please make another post

I'll need to reread, but I thought I saw some grammar errors in the Broken Cog. I'll edit or reply to this post once I have the chance to give a proper read.

Inbox where? You mean the PM box here? Sorry, it's not there Please try again (or post it here, it works too).

[IanFordam]

"Thaan Fallen", p.44: Please boldface "Chorin Mur'Thaan" and insert a line break before "See Forbidden Lore: Cryptical Alliances, p.14." Merci!

Joël's note: FIXED, if you have more corrections please make another post

De rien

[IanFordam]

"Thaan Fallen", p.42. In the write-up for Kraol, please fix my misspelling of "Whenever" in the second sentence.

Joël's note: FIXED, if you have more corrections please make another post

[IanFordam]

Three more fixes, please!

• On p.38, the header for "Grath's Hermitage". Please capitalize the parenthesized brief summary for consistency with the other brief summaries in the article.
• On p.46, the last paragraph of the "Grozirg" entry. Please replace "expandable pawns" with "expendable pawns".
• On p.47, the third and fourth paragraphs of the "An Old Soul" dread possibility. Please combine these into a single paragraph.

Again, thank you.

Joël's note: FIXED!

Third correction - so the sentence reads as "Among her many talents, Jenyi possesses the psychometabolic science Complete Healing and devotion Cell Adjustment." Right?

Yes, please. And, upon re-reading the sentence, if you could replace "and devotion" with "and the devotion", that would make it read better, I think.

(I'm really bad at knowing when to stop editing, yes, how did you guess?)

No problem, you have until the point of release

[IanFordam]

Bonjour!

On p.334, the first paragraph of the section entitled "The Hidden Face", please change "That is t say" to "That is to say".)

Also, the section "Stairs of Belenus" on p.37 was intended to be a Dread Possibility. (Not that I marked it up as such in my original submission. Even so, if you could fix my mistake, I would appreciate it.)

Joël's note: RÉPARÉ!

[Joël of the FoS]

I plan a release of v2 mid January so if you have other stuff to fix, now's the time!

[IanFordam]

If it's not too late, I have two more fixes to request:

• On p318, under "Pernstow Keep", the heading "Elsadamor Floch (Captain of Pernstow Keep)" should be boldfaced.
• On p334, the paragraph which begins "Fifteen years later", I really shouldn't spell abbot with two t's. Please change to "abbot".

And if it is too late, well, that's too bad for me, then, innit?

[Joël of the FoS]

Done!

[Isolde]

This is not out yet isn't it?
