It seems the muse that is <a href="http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/07/greyhawk-poetry-corner.html"><b>Lirr</b>, goddess of poetry</a> and art has struck again.

Due to some scheduling issues with another campaign I'm in and other obligations involving the <a href="http://gamerstable.com/">gaming podcast</a> I am involved with on game night, the<b> Sea Princes </b>campaign is being put temporarily on hiatus. This of course is a rarity for me, to stop at 3rd level and only after about 14 or 15 weeks. My campaigns usually span a dozen levels and last full calendar years, but the bright side is, the Sea Princes campaign has been such a success that I am confident we'll be back on it the first chance I get. This is in large part due to my serializing the guy's weekly adventures here on <b>Greyhawkery</b>, and the wealth of additional campaign material I've done (like the South Seas map) and still plan do in the near future (NPC sketches and more). <br /> So don't fret readers, sails will be unfurled again and quest for the <b>Well of All Heals</b> will will resume. <br /> <br /> In the meantime, <a href="http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/sea-princes-14-rum-rangers-religion.html">since last time</a>, here is some more information gleaned at the meeting with Captain Rennaud and Count Tydan of <b>Port Torvin</b>...<br /> <br /> Count Tydan was given Rennaud's coded map to the Well in trust while the <em>Bird of Prey</em> was repaired in Torvin. The damage caused to the Bird (before the PCs had joined it) was caused in a battle at sea with the <b>Crimson Fleet </b>ship <em>Malady</em>. Captain Rennaud told the Count all about the venture and his benefactor eagerly decided to invest in it, but first he tested the captain's loyalty by sending him on a test run to <em>Narisban,</em> sending Tydan's less-than-appreciated son Araxo along. Rennaud was not worried about being double-crossed because the map is indecipherable to even him.<br /> <br /> Now presently, Rennaud has revealed that the map was made by a sage from <b>Gradsul, Keoland</b> who specialized in ancient cultures and holy sites, named Lockard Meek. somehow the map was possessed by his father, then brother and was then passed to him when he fled to the Hold. Lockard however had moved on as well and hasn't been seen in the west for many years. Captain Rennaud now knows the sage lives in the port of <b>Scant</b> in <b>Onnwal</b> and plans to sail there and consult him on the mysterious map. Araxo of course being young was skeptical about a hunt for the fabled <em>Well</em> for it has been heard of in all races and cultures.  It is generally agreed that the Well is some sort of water source of such power that it can heal the slightest wound or affliction, even restore severed limbs and possibly even bring the dead back to life! The captain assured him that he believed in these same children's stories:<br /> <br /> <em>Once a blind mother,</em><br /> <em>And her lame brother,</em><br /> <em>Went to heal at the Well.</em><br /> <em>Child, if you are Good,</em><br /> <em>I'm sure that you could,</em><br /> <em>Find it, if you don't tell.</em><br /> <br /> His belief was further reinforced by the cryptic evidence on the map and another more ancient olven rhyme he heard from his crewman, Piper Kellin:<br /> <br /> <em>Your bones have been broken;</em><br /> <em>Many wounds, how they sting.</em><br /> <em>But your faith has awoken,</em><br /> <em>A crystal healing spring.</em><br /> <em>Hidden by dark trees.</em><br /> <em>Far beyond the Seas.</em><br /> <br /> With the goal set and ship readied, Count Tydan then declared that he would send Lord Ronaldo Key, Araxo's bully of a cousin, as his representative on the voyage. Any harm to him would be a slight to the Count so the captain vowed that he and his officers would protect him. Secretly however, the scheming Araxo began formulating a vindictive plan of his own to somehow derail the quest for the Well of All Heals and thus spoil a victory for his father.<br /> <br /> To be continued....dun dun dun! <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Mike Bridges</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/sea-princes-15-to-be-continued.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/sea-princes-15-to-be-continued.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2011-08-27T01:07:00-05:00'>1:07 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/9034454877966866286/4804059137877985604' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

In his first installment he covers the currently-running version of two of Greyhawk's if not all of D&D's most infamous villains: <b>Kas and Vecna</b>. Yes, you will need a <b>D&DI</b> subscription to read this article in full. I will try to review some of the meatier parts for you in the meantime...<br /> <br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"> The article is narrated by an unassuming <b>Vistani</b> dancing-girl named <span><span><span><span style="color: black; font-size: small;"><b>Menodora Zarovan</b> who knows her forbidden lore. Her opening lines should be pleasing to any fan of the <em>World of Greyhawk:</em></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span><span><span><em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>Nearly two millennia ago in a land known as the Flanaess, the name of the lich Vecna was sung by bards and cursed by clerics. How did he become a lich, and why did he seek to conquer the Flanaess?<span style="color: #202123;"><span style="color: #202123;"><span style="color: #202123;"><span style="color: black; font-size: small;">You may as well ask, ‘Why is the Shadowfell dark, Menodora?'</span></span></span></span>"</span></span></span></span></em></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>Alright! A direct Greyhawk reference in a <b>4e</b> product! Keep it going Menodora.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>Vecna was a supremely talented wizard who became obsessed with overcoming death when his beloved mother died. He conquered villages in the Flanaess to use the townspeople as subjects for his necromantic experiments."</span></span></span></span></em></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;">A reference to the alternate origins of Vecna laid down in the semi-canonical <em>Vecna: Hand of the Revenant</em> graphic novel. Points for using that obscure source. Now for another Greyhawk emigrant...</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span style="color: black;"><em>"...</em><span><span><span><em>one of his generals—a demonic half-breed mage </em><em>named Acererak—rescued Vecna from destruction </em><em>by clerics of Pelor."</em></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>This association is also from <em>Hand of the Revenant</em>. <b>Acererak </b>the future demi-lich who resides in the famous <em>Tomb of Horrors</em> once served the Whispered One. No big deal there. Acererak has figured prominently in 4th edition material already including a whole <em>Tomb of Horrors</em> makeover. The keen thing about this article so far is that it includes occasional sidebars with History skill checks for PCs to know relevant information at certain points in the article. These History checks flow well with the narrative and the difficulty numbers are easily adapted to any edition. Moving right along, Acererak's "true" history as told by the Vistani takes a slight turn...</span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><em>"...<span><span><span>the truth is that Acererak </span></span></span><span face="MentorStd-Italic"><span face="MentorStd-Italic"><span face="MentorStd-Italic">arranged </span></span></span></em><span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><em>Vecna’s near-destruction and rescue that day, so that </em></span><span style="color: black;"><em>he could ingratiate himself with his master and put </em></span><span style="color: black;"><em>himself in a position to steal Vecna’s darkest, most </em></span><span style="color: black;"><em>powerful secrets."</em></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;">That rat! Well anyhow this leads to Vecna not trusting anyone and his obsession with secrecy becomes his signature portfolio. Next to the story comes Kas:</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>During the time that Acererak was deceiving Vecna, Kas was a human paladin in Vecna’s service, drawn by visions of blood and a thirst for foes who would challenge his prowess at arms. Years earlier he had pledged himself to a god of death, but Kas soon grew bored with mere death."</span></span></span></span></em></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>Hear that? N<b>erull, Wee Jas</b>, maybe the <em><b>Raven Queen</b></em>? Kas-a paladin-got bored with all of them and joined Vecna. Hardcore. This leads to another intriguing twist on the Vecna-Kas story:</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>Vecna used necromancy to extend Kas’s life, wishing to retain his trusted weapon as long as possible. When Kas’s mortal form had reached the point when even Vecna’s spells could sustain it no longer, the lich fashioned for him a fanged mask of silver, and channeled the energy of undeath into it. By wearing the silver mask and accepting its necromantic embrace, Kas willingly received the dark gift of vampirism."</span></span></span></span></em><br /> <br /> <span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>This heresy of history of course conflicts with well known events in Greyhawk's <em>Vecna Lives!</em> and much to my delight, Ken Hart addresses this change in his narrative...</span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>Perhaps you don’t believe me. Possibly you have heard that Kas became a vampire </span></span></span><span face="MentorStd-Italic"><span face="MentorStd-Italic"><span face="MentorStd-Italic">after </span></span></span><span><span><span>his famous betrayal, as a result of being imprisoned in Vecna’s Citadel Cavitius, on an ashcovered world so cold that it freezes the very soul. That is what Vecna cultists quoting from the Scroll of Mauthereign would have you think..."</span></span></span></span></em></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>The tale goes on, relating why Vecna created the Sword of Kas for his bloody-handed lieutenant:</span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><em><span style="color: black;">"<span><span><span>As he spoke the final enchantments over it, he carefully pulled a thread of shadow from his own consciousness and wrapped it around the sword’s black blade. From that point on, as long as Kas bore the sword Vecna would be able to listen in on Kas’s activities, and sometimes even his thoughts."</span></span></span></span></em></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>Then Vecna was betrayed. By whom? Well, you'll need to make a DC 35 History check to find that out. I can't give away the entire article folks. Vecna will hate me if I do, but I'm pretty sure you know the rest. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <br /> <span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span>I have to admit, given the extensive histories already written about Vecna and Kas (I'm looking at you Sam and Sean), there was every chance this article could have let me down by trying too hard to reinvent these well-known characters for 4th edition. But Ken Hart's <em>History Check</em> impressed me unlike most other 4e articles I've seen by at least trying to fit it with prior Greyhawk history. What is more amazing is that it's nearly <strong>all fluff</strong> other than a handfull of sidebars and adventure hooks at the end. If you have a D&DI subscription give this article a look. If you dare. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /> <div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span><span><span><span><span><span><span style="color: black;"><span><span><span><br /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><b><span style="color: red;">Update 4/18/2021:</span></b> Of course the D&D Insider subscription service and eDragon is no longer available.

The<em> Best of Greyhawk</em> is a collection of pseudo-articles and list postings between Greyhawk fans and authors (notably <b>Roger Moore</b>), back when the internet was still a newish thing (is <b>AOL</b> still around?) and the setting we all love and cherish still held a wealth of lore to debate over. Darn I missed out on all that fun!<br /> <br /> One entry that caught my eye in <em>Best of Greyhawk #2</em> is on the topic of "Lost" Gods of Greyhawk, by a poster named<b> "Iquander"</b>. Iquander for those who haven't been around online Greyhawk for a long time is better known as <b>Erik Mona</b>, presently publisher of <b>Paizo Publishing</b>. Here is what he offered up way back in 1995:<br /> <br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span><span><div align="left"><em>From: Iquander</em></div><div align="left"><em>Date: 95-04-01 03:05:12 EDT</em></div><em>Re: "Lost" gods of Greyhawk</em></span></span><br /> <span><span><em>It just so happens that deities of Oerth have been a subject of interest for me.

Indeed, many of the mentioned<b> Olman</b> gods got further development in 1999's <em>The Scarlet Brotherhood</em> by <b>Sean Reynolds</b>, where Erik also was credited as a "Greyhawk Sage." Even so, a few of these gods are still "lost" to us. For example, Apocatequil did not make the cut and is not on any Greyhawk wiki list that I can locate. I also wish Landron and Om had been imported into the roleplay setting over from <b>Andre Norton's</b> novel. They sound intriguing and could make good fodder for a future article.

Having an image to go along with a name helps players immerse themselves in a setting, and with half the action and adventure taking place on a mobile setting like a ship, this tool is even more useful. Emboldened by the past I finally broke down and started on some of the crew of the <em>Bird of Prey</em> from my <b>S</b><b>ea Princes</b> campaign.

With their mission a success, there was still the matter of what to do with all the cargo inside...<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Here is our protagonists:<br /> <div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Victor Emmitt Hammond (recklessly rowdy fighter)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Araxo Tydan (ritzy reading rogue)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Cuahtehmoc aka "Cuahto" (relentlessly reliable ranger)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Brother Pickles (religiously raging cleric)<br /> Henri Morgan (rascally rude rogue)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><br /></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">The <em>Sea Ghost</em> was brought into port reluctantly by Vic, Cuahto and Henri. Once there, agents of the Count were contacted to inform him that his ship was secured. Over 300 small casks of rum, wine and brandy needed to be unloaded and fast. The Count's merchants quickly negotiated a generous offer to buy the cargo, less several casks kept for the enjoyment of those who worked so hard to gain the haul. The Count also made sure to reward the three for rescuing his ship, splashing handfuls of cheap small gems in the palms of each. All the activity at the docks of course caught the attention of their fellow crewmates from the Bird. So out of the kindness of their salty hearts, Pickles was given a silver service set (which he seemed amused with) and Araxo was given a highly useful book found on the <i>Sea Ghost</i> titled, <em>Legal Distinctions in Letters of Marque</em>. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">The next day, as the five stumbled out of one of the many dockside taverns on their way to who knows where, Brother Pickles was flagged down by an old mentor, Father Lork of Procan. Wild haired and fanatical, old Father Lork was working his way down the docks spouting his stormy religious rhetoric to porters and linemen and Brother Pickles was enlisted to help him bless vessels. Unfortunately coming in the opposite direction was a group of four Hool swamp rangers, who being landlubbers in general, were less keen about the superstations of Lork. Unfortunately, one of them happened to be a red-head and that set off a confrontation...</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">According to Lork, red-headed strangers must be spoken to before they can speak to you or else bad luck befalls the sailor. This didn't sit well with the red-ranger as he was pushed down and taunted by his compatriots. And <em>that</em> of course didn't sit well with the dim-witted Pickles. Before his allies knew it, Pickles was raging and charging the red-head with a meat cleaver. Indeed, even the rangers were caught by surprise and could only back away defensively. Once weapons were drawn, both sides sprang into action. <br /> <div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">The swamp rangers were of course friends and family of the rangers that Araxo and Henri had dispatched at the Lighthouse brothel mere days ago. This fact only made the confrontation more lethal. Victor challenged the largest ranger to a duel, which he gladly accepted to get away from the manic cleaver of Pickles. Pickles was backed up by Cuahto (wearing a skinned Gnoll pelt) and Henri (always eager to knife someone in the back). Araxo stood with many other bystanders and read from his new book.</div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Within minutes, two rangers were down and Victor had cut down a third foe through with his cutlass. The fourth took off like lightning with Henri giving chase. The Torvin guard had showed by then to clean up the mess. With a show of his signet ring, Araxo informed the guard who was at fault and his allies were allowed to resume their business. Father Lork thanked Pickles and his friends for their aid and respect by gifting them two vials of holy sea water and some special algae that grants the ability to breath water. After imparting some more sea-lore and superstition on the group, Lork moved on. Araxo however was contacted by his father to attend a meeting at the manor concerning his next voyage. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Later that evening, Araxo (who brought Pickles along) was in a private council chamber with Captain  Rennaud, Count Tydan and his right hand man, Lord Ronaldo Key (cousin of Araxo). Rennaud opened by relating to Araxo (who had already gathered the truth) that he was once a <em>Knight of the Watch</em> from neighboring <em>Keoland; </em>the source of his nickname the Blackguard (though he didn't yet go into the reason why he was in disfavor). Related to this, he revealed that "the Owl's nest egg" that pirate captain McGrath referred to was not some rumored Keoish treasure he stole, but in fact a map that belonged to his family.

It's like slowing down to see a wreck along the side of the road even if you have somewhere else to be. Well it's maybe not that bad, you get my meaning. Anyhow, you should first read Mr. Winter's well reasoned editorial, but here's my perspective in the meantime:<br /> <br /> When<b> Wizards</b> took away the magazines from <b>Paizo</b> I was suitably enraged (though it turned out great for Paizo) but it was more because I was attached to the tradition of paper magazines than the content. Once the same content was put online it became a minor issue as having the issues in PDF form made them no worse in quality than any other ezine out there. Download, maybe print, read, save. Then Wizards got lazier. <br /> <br /> The issues stopped being released as one entire document and instead the articles were broken up and slowly posted to the site one by one under the monthly heading of <em>Dragon</em> or <em>Dungeon</em> to keep up appearances of a magazine. So now with the steady demise of these once great magazines, Steve and company are appraising their options. In my opinion, with the current state of <em>Dragon/Dungeon</em>, and heck the entire D&D brand, these articles could be placed anywhere on the website and not make a bit of difference. Their decision to bring <em>Dragonmirth</em> back to the magazines briefly lifted my spirits since cartooning is my life, but even these comics are hard to navigate in the current format. So yeah, though I'm a traditionalist at heart, in this situation it might be time to pull the plug and put our beloved magazines to rest (for the time being). <br /> <div><br /></div><div><b><span style="color: red;">Update4/18/2021: </span></b>Had to remove the links to this editorial. Back then you needed a digital subscription anyhow to download their articles, so I'm sure they are out there somewhere, just not for the public.</div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Mike Bridges</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/good-bye-dragon-and-dungeon.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/good-bye-dragon-and-dungeon.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2011-08-11T20:49:00-05:00'>8:49 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/9034454877966866286/2838667242618212995' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500");

Much to my delight, <a href="http://onlinedm.wordpress.com/2011/08/06/gencon-2011-day-3-dd-new-products-seminar/"><b>Online Dungeonmaster</b></a> posted an awesome by the minute breakdown of <b>Wizards of the Coast's</b> new product seminar for the coming six months or so (my thanks to you sir). There is plenty here to read for yourself as it covers a myriad of new stuff, but in the meantime, here is several interesting parts that caught my discerning eye:<br /> <br /> <em>"10:15: <strong>Lords of Waterdeep</strong>. Euro-style board game coming out next year. Competitive game of intrigue set in Waterdeep. You’re a lord of Waterdeep, recruiting adventurers for quests, backstabbing / cooperating with other lords. Pretty cover art! Started on the game train last year with a conversation with Peter Lee. There are dice, cards, tiles. March of 2012 is the aim for release. Square coins and crescent coins. Old 2<sup><span style="font-size: xx-small;">nd</span></sup> edition Forgotten Realms sourcebook used this image for Waterdhavian coins, so they made them for the game. Relies heavily on Volo’s (?) Guide to Waterdeep."</em><br /> <br /> <a href="http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-prediction-for-future-greyhawk.html">As I had reported</a> from an earlier <em>Dragon</em> article, Wizards is trying to break into this specialized boardgame market. So it's not surprising they have led off with the old cash cow, <em>Forgotten Realms</em>. The description of this game is exactly what I envisioned this boardgame would be like. Too bad it wasn't "Lords of Greyhawk" cause it would totally work in the same format as above and I imagine it would be a hot sell if only for collecting sake. But <b>Waterdeep </b>works fine.  Is this the future of Greyhawk? <br /> <br /> <em>"10:18: They want to expand their board games into all sorts of areas."</em><br /> <br /> I guess it all rests on the shoulders of <b>Peter Lee</b>.<br /> <br /> <em>"10:24: <strong>Mordenkainen’s Magnificent Emporium</strong> – the back-from-the-dead book. Greg Bilsland runs playtesters internally and externally. It’s a “core exclusive” only available at game stores. Items are attached to the rarity system. Character options for flails. Mundane armor. Followers and henchmen rules. So, not just magic items – a book of “anything you could buy”."</em><br /> <br /> <a href="http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/mordenkainens-book-is-back.html">Mentioned a few days ago</a>, I had forgot about the rarity system. How very CCG of them. The fact this book is only available from game stores is surprising. This might make the book itself a rarity. Hmm! Later on in the Q&A section of the seminar this detail starts to lose it's punch.<br /> <br /> <em>"11:27 Q: Can’t buy Mordenkainen’s online?"</em><br /> <em>" A: Have to keep stores happy – it’s where they get new players. It’s an awkward balance."</em><br /> <em>"11:30 Q: Why not Mordenkainen’s online?"</em><br /> <em>"A: Some hobby stores do sell online, and they’ll be allowed to sell this. Amazon will be able to order from WotC…They want to keep the industry healthy – complex ecosystem."</em><br /> <br /> I'm not sure how this is going to work any differently from other releases. If<em> Amazon</em> has the same access to this book that does little to help poor game stores. And if there is no PDF version for sale, well we all know what will happen there. <br /> <br /> <em>"10:29: Encounters. Neverwinter next, then the Feywild – <strong>Player’s Option Heroes of the Feywild</strong>. Encounter based on UK1 Crystal Cave adventure – <strong>Beyond the Crystal Cave</strong>."</em><br /> <br /> This is talking about the <em>D&D Encounters</em> organized play series. <em>Encounters</em> has borrowed touches from old Greyhawk classics before like the <em>Ghost Tower of Inverness</em>, and I've occasionally railed they keep going back to the Greyhawk well for ideas instead of creating new ones. But UK1? Wow, no one could have predicted that one. Only the staunchest Greyhawk grognards know much about the plot of this module or would be outraged that it's being used derivatively. So, I suppose I'm fine with this one. It does show however that the entire Greyhawk catalogue is open game for <em>Encounters</em>. Not that it's a bad thing necessarily...<br /> <br /> <em>"10:33: <strong>Book of Vile Darkness</strong> – December. By Robert Schwalb. Allows for playing evil campaigns. DM advice for making an interesting campaign with evil PCs. 32 page facsimile of the Book of Vile Darkness itself. 96 pages of player/DM info, double-sided poster map."</em><br /> <br /> Wow. Really, Schwalb? It was just an edition ago that this controversial book (and a fave of mine) had a "mature audiences only" label. I cannot imagine for an instant the 4e version of "evil campaigning" can touch the evil that <b>Monte Cook</b> once wrought.<br /> <br /> <em>"Q: Book of Vile Darkness – will it be as “adult themed”?" </em><br /> <em>"A: Not really. No “adult only” sticker, standard art."</em><br /> <br /> Thought so. Speaking of which, we might soon <em>see</em> the <b>Book of Vile Darkness</b>! Yeah, there is talk of a D&D movie based on the title of this nefarious tome. This I have to see.<br /> <br /> <em>"10:34: February Encounters – <strong>The Elder Elemental Eye</strong>. <strong>Player’s Option: Power of the Plane Below</strong>.

Where was all this fan support when<b> Living Greyhawk</b> was at it's height? Tsk! <br /> <br /> Now for those still clinging on to speculation of a 4e Greyhawk setting book...<br /> <br /> <em>"Q: Next year’s campaign setting?" </em><br /> <em>"A: Mearls – not yet ready to talk about it. They’ve intentionally pulled back their timeline a little. Don’t like announcing stuff before it’s really ready and then canceling it. Don’t want to create expectations they can’t meet or create confusion.</em><em> Essentials – they don’t think that was handled great in this respect. There WILL be another campaign-style book next August, similar to Neverwinter this year.</em> <em>"</em><br /> <br /> Hm, playing their cards close to their chest, eh? Maybe someone can try to call their bluff....<br /> <br /> <em>"10:57 Q: For next August’s setting, any hints and when will it be announced? A: It’s not Dragonlance. Well, it does have dragons. Tease: “It’s not just a setting, but it’s a way to play. Something that D&D hasn’t tried before.” “Twist” is a good word."</em><br /> <br /> Wow, okay. So that dashes Greyhawk <em>and</em> <b>Dragonlance </b>which was an odds favorite choice to get a 4e setting book. Hm, Dragons. A way to play. Hasn't been tried before? I seriously doubt that. Just in case here is <a href="http://newbiedm.com/2010/10/22/classics-unboxed-council-of-wyrms/">my prediction</a>. That's about all I have energy for, the rest is for you to digest.

Last year our fine friends at <a href="http://paizo.com/"><em>Paizo Publishing</em></a> cleaned up and it looks like this year, they have done quite well again. Ol' <b>Wizards of the Coast </b>is definitely #2 according to the fans (the irony is I still play <b>3.5e </b>not <b>Pathfinder</b>). Here is some particular highlights:<br /> <br /> <strong>Best Podcast</strong> <strong>(Silver)</strong> <em>Chronicles: The Pathfinder Podcast, d20 radio</em>. Interesting. A lot of people even like to listen about <b>Paizo </b>stuff. I suspect my friends will take notice.<br /> <br /> <strong>Best Interior Art (Gold)</strong> <em>Pathfinder: The Inner Sea World Guide, Paizo Publishing</em>.  This I can believe. <b>Sarah Robinson </b>is a great art director. They've attracted the best artists in the biz since their days on <i>Dragon and Dungeon Magazine</i>.<br /> <br /> <strong>Best Cartography (Gold)</strong> <em>Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea Poster Map Folio</em><em>, Paizo, Cartography Rob Lazzaretti. </em>This product, with its four quadrant mega-poster map of the setting is the heir apparent of Greyhawk's<b> Darlene</b> map. Rob has been mapping for Paizo a long time. Some might remember he did the huge four part map of Greyhawk for <i>Dungeon Magazine</i> which stands to this day as the last, best revision of that world map.<br /> <br /> <div class="tweet-row"><div class="tweet-text pretty-link"><strong>Judges Spotlight Award from Mark Green:</strong> <em><a href="http://paizo.com/store/downloads/paizoFansUnited/v5748btpy8jn5">Wayfinder #4: The Mwangi Expanse, Paizo Fans United</a>. </em>Imagine if the free fanzine <em>Oerth Journal</em> had been closely supported by <b>TSR </b>or Wizards back in Greyhawk's heydey. It would be as lauded as <em>Wayfinder</em>. I have a lot of respect for the fans and authors of this Pathfinder fanzine.

They just keep cranking out the adventures and paths. I don't think even TSR put out adventures at this rapid of a pace and with this much quality.

Because Pathfinder players like their game advanced and can't get enough of it. The rumors of Paizo outselling Wizards for the first time this year is likely true if it's anything like the voting on the ENnies.</div><div class="tweet-text pretty-link"> </div><div class="tweet-text pretty-link"><strong>Best Game (Silver)</strong> <em>Mutants & Masterminds Hero’s Handbook, Green Ronin Publishing</em>. I do love <b>Green Ronin</b> and<b> M&M</b> as well. I feel bad that I've not ran their new edition though, I tend to cling to editions I'm comfortable with as long as possible.

Here are our protagonists:<br /> <br /> <div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Victor Emmitt Hammond (fighter, swinging the steel)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Araxo Tydan (rogue, winging a deal)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Cuahtehmoc aka "Cuahto" (ranger, bringing to heel)</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Brother Pickles (cleric, slinging a meal)<br /> Henri Morgan (rogue, springing to steal)<br /> <br /> </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Coming out of the Hammerhead tavern one night, the PCs run into three <a href="http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/04/sea-princes-campaign-3-haunted-cellar.html">familiar faces</a> (well not to Pickles who mistakes them for some other persons he hates), belonging to pirates that they ran from way back during their trip across the bay to <b>Saltmarsh</b> and it's haunted house on the coast. The three pirates immediately noticed that they were noticed and took off in a sprint through town, eventually splitting three directions. The crew gave chase and all three scalliwags were taken down: one by Emmitt's fist in an alley, one by Cuahto's long distance swimming skill, and the last knifed to death on main street by Henri (then HE ran away).</div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><br /> </div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;">Both pirates ended up being taken to Araxo's brothel, the Lighthouse to be interrogated and possibly pressed into service. Unfortunately an informant ran to Araxo's father, Count Erasmus Tydan to tell him what was transpiring. Araxo and Pickles were luckily absent when the Torvin guard arrived to haul the two pirates and three of their captors to Tydan manor for a meeting. Evidently the pirates belonged to the mutinous crew of the <em>Sea Ghost</em>, a ship that once belonged to Count Tydan. Their smuggling activities always brought them close to Saltmarsh and Torvin but never directly into port. The two surviving pirates (who were thoroughly socked by the guard for insolence) admitted to the <em>Sea Ghost</em> being anchored a mile off port, awaiting their lantern signal for them to return by boat. Count Tydan wanted his ship back, so the offer was made for Cuahto, Morgan and Hammond to go with a few of his men (and one of the pirates named Feylan) and bring the mutineers to justice. The opportunity to earn free loot was too much a lure so they went to work immediately.</div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><br /> </div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRJDhdwkqygrATLSc3kOtWeIIj3BtCMaoVNcttull0JiiusgL36XwM-LkQKPJiMiVQhHMyaDEpYJtwVMVJVpMm9masbyTcYeaVQ-Ba3mWtQ728BHCbQ6sfY7WXB0odoKidl2aCrXL9aly/s1600/rowboat4.JPG" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="124" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLRJDhdwkqygrATLSc3kOtWeIIj3BtCMaoVNcttull0JiiusgL36XwM-LkQKPJiMiVQhHMyaDEpYJtwVMVJVpMm9masbyTcYeaVQ-Ba3mWtQ728BHCbQ6sfY7WXB0odoKidl2aCrXL9aly/s200/rowboat4.JPG" t="" true="" width="200" /></a>Two rowboats were provided and the seven men signaled to get the location of the <em>Sea Ghost</em> a mile offshore<em>.</em> Then under cover of darkness, they silently rowed to the aft of the vessel and stealthily roped their way up and through a couple open portholes. This move however split the party into two chambers, one the captain's room the other belonging to a tidy wizard. In one room, Henri picked the lock on a trapped chest, causing a cloud of gas to puff in his face and put him to sleep. Vic cleverly took the opportunity to rifle through the open chest and pocketed a fair amount of change before he roused his team-mate. In the meantime, Cuahto found a metal box but had no key or time to open it. Feylan (who was loosely trusted to help their cause in exchange for his freedom) armed himself with a knife found on a desk. Then the two teams peeked out the cabin doors to the main-deck...<br /> <br /> And saw three smugglers, two standing midship by the rail, awaiting with a rope ladder for the boats that never came and the other standing on the forecastle, patrolling. Just as the patroller spotted one of the doors creak open, Victor Hammond invoked the famous daredevil Leroy Jenkins and charged out onto deck to attack. The initial surprise went well, one man went down to a knee as he was stabbed, but the other man shouted a warning as he drew a broadsword and introduced himself as "Bloody" Bjorn. The duel with Vic was on.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu6te8slXDYBIyq2V00GjW05xusoWHYxQdNSUa1brJhbuobQbSlVtb1F_SqOQbgXJOlLQyIRjX_bq6uB1JfJTyNxHzHFg-qBtPfoa2awPX_WUFlISTNInaA_RD3Xf2ISap9PC3hkiH-Vwa/s1600/seaghost1.JPG" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="165" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu6te8slXDYBIyq2V00GjW05xusoWHYxQdNSUa1brJhbuobQbSlVtb1F_SqOQbgXJOlLQyIRjX_bq6uB1JfJTyNxHzHFg-qBtPfoa2awPX_WUFlISTNInaA_RD3Xf2ISap9PC3hkiH-Vwa/s200/seaghost1.JPG" t="" true="" width="200" /></a></div>Henri rushed out onto deck next and finished off the injured pirate, only to see that behind them on the poop deck lingered more people next to a signaling lantern: Captain "Snake Eyes" Sigurd, his mage Punketah and a steersman armed with a cutlass. The bristly bearded captain drew his longsword but merely stared down at the melee erupting below. Victor traded steel with Bloody Bjorn, attempting feints and disarm attempts but neither had the advantage. Armed with only a dagger, Henri dashed up the stairs toward the captain and was headed off by his lackey. <br /> <br /> The pirate at the fore tried to sneak up on Vic as he dueled but then on cue Cuahto, Feylan and the Torvin guard emerged from hiding to head off this threat (Cuahto took the pirate down). The advantage was short lived for suddenly out a door came the <i>Sea Ghosts'</i> wildcards, a lizardman and a reddish gnoll! The odds were still even. The captain next yelled to Feylan and asked what his loyalties were, the smuggler chose his old loyalties and stabbed one of the Torvin guard who much to his chagrin was then swiped off the ship by a crushing head-blow from the lizardman. The battle intensified as Cuahto went after the treacherous Feylan killing him for wasting his kindness. Not far away Henri took to a rope and swashbuckled his way past Captain Sigurd to give him a cut across the face. This affront was barely survived as the mage casted a failed S<em>leep</em> spell on him as he dangled from the rope.<br /> <br /> The battle rolled on and Victor, though injured, finished off Bloody Bjorn with a misdirected stab. Outraged at the death of his first mate, the captain swung down to meet Vic and another duel began; crashing attacks were countered by more dodgy feints. Henri meanwhile dropped back to the poop deck and confronted the mage, who recoiled harmlessly once his blood was drawn. The pirate defending him fell against the former <b>Sasserine</b> soldier. The humanoids began to wear down and were soon defeated by Cuahto and the remaining Torvin guard. Lastly, bleeding from his wounds, Victor sneaked his best lethal stroke into Captain Sigurd, and as his beady, staring eyes rolled back, he fell to the deck dead. The battle for the <em>Sea Ghost</em> was over. <br /> <br /> The mage and the remaining smugglers below decks that were too late to join in the fight and surrendered. Parleying for their lives they told the boarders everything they wanted to know about their smuggling operation (weapons to Hool humanoids, goods to Torvin and illicit goods to Saltmarsh) and gave them all their gear and valuables in exchange for a boat off the <em>Sea Ghost</em>. The ship was given a cursory search by the victors and the gold and silver found stood to make them much richer than any of their crew-mates (the guards were suitably bribed for their help). What was more, in the hold they found an untold number of liquor casks. The ship belonged to Count Tydan but surely the cargo didn't go with the vessel. How would they unload so much ill-gotten cargo without earning the Count's ire? Or even the jealousy of their allies? The issue of the cargo was debated deep into the night. Shorthanded and weary from their wounds, the decision of what to do with all this wealth would promise to be a critical juncture for the crew of the <em>Bird of Prey</em>.... </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><br /> </div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-color: initial; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-style: none; border-top: medium none; border-width: medium;"><b>Game notes: </b>As mentioned, this session was adapted from the unfinished part two of the <em>Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh</em> (since it was played via the<b> Sea Princes </b>not Saltmarsh). As low-level 1st edition modules go, this one has been a blast. I wish I had ran it much sooner in my life. Araxo and Pickles were absent from the fighting because their players were off to <b>Gencon 2011</b>. While they aren't missing out on any story XP, the loot found could be hard for the other guys to hide from them....</div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/17741591268012556455' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Mike Bridges</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/sea-princes-13-sea-ghost.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/sea-princes-13-sea-ghost.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2011-08-04T16:27:00-05:00'>4:27 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/9034454877966866286/7715008190578751039' onclick='javascript:window.open(this.href, "bloggerPopup", "toolbar=0,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,scrollbars=yes,width=640,height=500"); return false;'> 7 comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1748481936'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=9034454877966866286&postID=7715008190578751039&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/search/label/3.5%20edition' rel='tag'>3.5 edition</a>, <a href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/search/label/campaign' rel='tag'>campaign</a>, <a href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/search/label/Greyhawk' rel='tag'>Greyhawk</a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> <span class='post-location'> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="date-outer"> <h2 class='date-header'><span>Wednesday, August 3, 2011</span></h2> <div class="date-posts"> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post hentry uncustomized-post-template' itemprop='blogPost' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <meta content='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFb3qB316VAmBP5kWBTeXOmwdmHoDndEZC5TRosYq_twfvBs3ExIgFaQ6SiH2M0yYpAz3X9DDqZKkbiormztjwakksViJ1EdyavlOIwTBn8SJJb_WRnHfKw_4mYkBz2KibdMSXqKPuMvPU/s1600/mordyemp1.JPG' itemprop='image_url'/> <meta content='9034454877966866286' itemprop='blogId'/> <meta content='2977733072382678636' itemprop='postId'/> <a name='2977733072382678636'></a> <h3 class='post-title entry-title' itemprop='name'> <a href='http://greyhawkery.blogspot.com/2011/08/mordenkainens-book-is-back.html'>Mordenkainen's Book is Back?!</a> </h3> <div class='post-header'> <div class='post-header-line-1'></div> </div> <div class='post-body entry-content' id='post-body-2977733072382678636' itemprop='articleBody'> For the love of <b>Pelor</b>!

Scroll on down to the entry on Mordy's book and see what they got going:<br /> <br /> <em>"Well, we wanted to finish with a bang. As has recently been announced, <strong>Mordenkainen's Magnificent Emporium</strong> has returned as a print product, and it's jammed full of items -- magic items, to be sure. You'll find plenty in the book for every character, whether you're looking for the armor of dogged grit, robe of useful items, or even plate mail of etherealness; new superior weapons, flame tongue or frost brand swords; or wondrous items such as a decanter of endless water, crystal ball, or Daern's instant fortress!"</em><br /> <br /> Ah nice, <b>Daern's Instant Fortress</b>. I'm anxious to see how it gets 4e-ified. <br /> <br /> <em>"But wait, there's more!</em><br /> <em>You can add new artifact and story items, mundane adventuring gear, and hirelings and henchman to your game."</em><br /> <br /> Hirelings and Henchmen in a magic item book? Okay...intriguing if only for the fact I can see henchmen as something Mordenkainen would know about.<br /> <br /> <em>"But that's not all.</em><br /> <em>You'll also find cursed items in this book. For fans of items with some extra roleplaying potential, here's how they'll work... </em><br /> <em>Cursed magic items were a mainstay of older editions of the Dungeons & Dragons game, much to Dungeon Masters' delight and players' occasional frustration. Items that hold curses seem just like normal magic items. They are, in fact, perfectly useful magic items in their own right. Under certain conditions, however, the dark magic of an item's curse causes the item to fail or malfunction in some spectacular way</em>."<br /> <br /> So now Mordy's shop is selling cursed items? Say it ain't so! Humor aside, this is another topic Mordenkainen would know about so it fits the theme of the book. I still rankle at the thought of Greyhawk's #1 wizard being reduced to having his name put on a magic item shop. I mean, if Greyhawk was ascendant, we wouldn't be seeing a book called <em>Elminster's Exalted Boutique</em>.<br /> <br /> Oh yes, speaking of Elminster, he has another new novel mentioned in the same article: <br /> <br /> <strong>Bury Elminster Deep</strong><br /> <em>"Elminster's archenemy, the vampiric Lord Manshoon, thinks he has destroyed Elminster at last. But Elminster survives in the form of magical ash, and with the help of his scion and the vestige of the long-dead goddess of magic, he still has a chance to counter Manshoon's insidious plots."</em> <br /> <br /> Sentient ash? For the love of <b>Mystra</b>, let the guy rest Ed!<div><br /></div><div><b><span style="color: red;">Update 4/18/2021:</span></b> Again, I've removed 4E article and product links because Wizards moved on.

text-align: center;"><br /> </div>I've still been thinking about my project list from Friday, and the Battles of Greyhawk series is something I would like to shed some more light on. Besides the <b>Battle of Emridy Meadows </b>(detailed in length in the original campaign Guide), most famous battles in the setting are briefly mentioned in either timeline form or when Gygax did his development articles in the ancient pages of <em>Dragon Magazine</em>. This means besides the known results, alot of the data and fluff about a historic Greyhawk battle is left open to interpretation. There is many places to start (or restart) so I was wondering, just going by the names of the battles, do any of these jump out at you? Perhaps I could motivate myself to write an article or two based on popular request. Have a look, but note this list is by no means complete. I have found over 60 canonical battles (or wars) in my research, so this is mainly some cherry picked ones that should in my opinion be the most interesting.<br /> <br /> <strong>Battle of a Fortnight's Length</strong> (Aerdy vs Nyrond)<br /> <strong>Battle of a Thousand Banners</strong> (Aerdy vs Iron League)<br /> <strong>Battle of Opicm River</strong> (Iuz vs Rovers)<br /> <strong>Battle of Blackwater Bend</strong> (Iuz vs Wolf Nomads)<br /> <strong>Battle of Critwall Bridge</strong> (Iuz vs Shield Lands)<br /> <strong>Battle of Shamblefield</strong> (Aerdy vs Frost Barbarians)<br /> <strong>Siege of Westkeep</strong> (Keoland vs Sea Princes)<br /> <strong>Fields of Padyr</strong> (Baklunish-Suel War)<br /> <strong>Battle of Loftwood</strong> (Ratik vs Bone March?)<br /> <strong>Gahru's Folly</strong> (Aerdy vs Grandwood)<br /> <strong>Battle of Jetsom Island</strong> (Sea Princes vs Keoland)<br /> <strong>Battle of Medegia</strong> (Aerdy vs Lordship of the Isles?)<div><br /></div><div><b><span style="color: red;">Update: 4/18/2021:</span></b> No changes to this post, just a comment that 10 years later I still have not fulfilled this dream project of mine.
