"World of Bastards: Furry Bastards"  is an uplifted animal shape shifter book that allows a PC to assume the role of a human shape shifter in the world of the Wretched Bastards rpg. Basically there are seven species of Dhogor or shapeshifters. <br />The seven species of Dhogor are as follows: • Cat Folk • Bearpeople • Canidaens • Swines • Goat Folk • Amphibians • Apeman<br />And  "World of Bastards: Furry Bastards"  lays everything out in neat OSR terms. Take for example the Bear People;"BEARPEOPLE RACIAL TRAITS Special Abilities: - Natural armour: they have Defence 16 - Unnaturally strong: add +3 to Strength at no cost - Unnaturally agile: add +2 to Dexterity at no cost Innate skills: - Bear Hug, 1d10 damage Racial Penalties: - Penalty to all social rolls (-2) when dealing with humans, dwarves and elves - Can’t use magic - Bearmen are bad at stealth, they suffer -3 to all sneaking and hiding - Dull-witted: can’t have Intelligence ability above 5 L脡ON L茅on was only a cub when a circus troupe purchased him and moved the young Bearman from the warm weather of the tropics to the cold tundra. L脠ON Age: 29 Class: Fighter Level: 4th Hit Points: 25 Morale: 12 Defence: 17 (+1 Dex bonus) (Abilities: Strength 18 (+3) Dexterity 15 (+1) Constitution 16 (+2) Intelligence 5 (-2) Wisdom 4 (-2) Charisma 10 (0) Comeliness 13 (+1) Basic Skills: Climb, Hide, Native Language, Search, Sneak Skills: Brawling Level 5, Melee Level 5 In the circus, L茅on performed feats of strength and was treated as a slave. Luckily for him, the acrobat Alyna fell in love with him and helped him escape captivity. Now they are itinerant performers in Kharabas." <br />Everything  "World of Bastards: Furry Bastards"   is easy to understand for those familar with the OSR &  carefully laid out with examples. There just enough customization here to create the PC or NPC that you want. And the lay out is easy on the eyes in  "World of Bastards: Furry Bastards". There's just enough here over the line to allow the DM to extend their own take on the PC material. At 1,50 this isn't an expensive addition to the Wretched Bastards rpg. The material here isn't over the furry line nor does it delve into weirdoville. Instread this is a twenty four page supplemental addition to the Wretched Bastard's rpg line that allows the DM to add in another option for players who want something unique & different to their OSR games. </span></div><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /><span style="background-color: white;

Thoughts floating around are that PC's from one setting get employment in some of the others. And this might help relieve some of the food import problems that players have been having with the Hyperborea rpg at my table lately. Zothique is a pretty much open rpg setting and its one that will be exploited coming up. <br />And do yourselves a favor & download <a href="https://www.hyperborea.tv/uploads/4/4/6/6/44662451/waifs_of_the_boreas_3e.pdf">Ben Balls Waif's of Hyperborea a one hundred and twenty five page kit for PCs</a> Ben Ball continues to impress with some of the innovative tools he comes up with for this Sword & Sorcery retroclone. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">The ancient streets of Zothique are home to all kinds of adventurers who make a good living looting the tombs & dungeons of ancient sorcerers, countless kings, and putting down the horrid ghosts of the past of this dying world.

Where the Church of Chaos is composed of several mostly independent cults, the Church of Law sees itself as a single, monolithic structure that exists to protect the Young Kingdoms and its people from the ravages of the Dukes of Disorder. This book explores this structure. The Player’s section details how the Cult of Law understands the cosmology of the Multiverse, how individual cultists behave, and how they approach their tasks of cleansing the world of the taint of Chaos.

Magic is discussed as a by-product of this energy, and how both the cults of Law and Chaos use it. The Gamemaster’s section is a series of discussions about using the information in this book in your Stormbringer campaign. There are details about working with gods-appropriate themes, the cultists of Law as antagonists, and campaign seeds for further adventures.

The fact is that cultists & followers of Law's religions have a nasty & very dangerous hatred of all things Chaos. The cracks in the barrier of Law has allowed the cancer of magick as Law looks at it to creep into the Young Kingdoms. The church of chaos of Pan Tang has been actively destroying the ancient safety valves that the Young Kingdom has in place. This is  one of the main reasons why the cults of Law & churches of Law are right in a way. But the fact is that the forces of chaos fueled by Pan Tang & the Young Kingdom's human chaos cults have become such a problem. <br />Elric himself as a champion of Arioch is a walking disaster area wherever he goes in the Young Kingdoms & beyond. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6xnr5XOuRl_QDwTecfGb3gB5PfnPz57egBhHX61UrGe62EzzbhcZJuwbMQq6r17Rs8c04tMAkeVuKoCPF6Biqdhx4EtllTZ16039CcksQBqCEnoukXco4jZZoa9cjpIBPFHqBh6w4pj8X2pEFK0m1cz0oLyKaAJS6OgjHsUyF7z1nm2t9YSmlWbl_/s3496/c3e9dc78-2b73-4d8f-8718-e1c11d26b655_1.96e1a02d6913f600e63be9b717a3cec9.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3496" data-original-width="2598" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6xnr5XOuRl_QDwTecfGb3gB5PfnPz57egBhHX61UrGe62EzzbhcZJuwbMQq6r17Rs8c04tMAkeVuKoCPF6Biqdhx4EtllTZ16039CcksQBqCEnoukXco4jZZoa9cjpIBPFHqBh6w4pj8X2pEFK0m1cz0oLyKaAJS6OgjHsUyF7z1nm2t9YSmlWbl_/w457-h640/c3e9dc78-2b73-4d8f-8718-e1c11d26b655_1.96e1a02d6913f600e63be9b717a3cec9.jpeg" width="457" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"> Gods of Law in the Young Kingdoms takes this knowledge of the twilight of Law & adds to it a sense of the cult & church's desparate fight against Chaos. Looking at Gods of Law in the Young Kingdoms with a both a player's & DM's eyes is interesting because it puts the view point of the Law into focus. <br />Is Gods of Law in the Young Kingdom worth the download? Yes in my humble opinion because of the fact that you've got the magicks of Law, the layout & background, and much more about the dieties, cults, the church, & more of Law! </span></div><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;

We didn't care about the horde of goblins that we'd seen earlier. Trolls are a problem especially dealing with DM Steve's passion for using the larger varieties of C&C gaint cave trolls often employed by hobbs & goblins.

And were mapping our way through this underground maze under a set of ruins. We came to a temple area that had been repurposed by the goblins & orcs. But we moved past it because of the smell of troll dung. <br />And that's when we hit a piece of scap metal from the Warden having slammed into Greyhawk ages ago. This huge slab of metal might be a wall or simply debris that wedged itself in the underworld of this complex. We found the edge of it after feeling for its edge in the darkness & came face to face with a group of hobgoblin adventurer NPC's. And our knight spoke enough hobgoblin to call a parley before we got into a melee. They were down here for a rite of passage being 26 Summers old & actually wanted no trouble. The hobgoblins had a blood oath vendetta against the orcs of the skull rippers tribe who resided down here. We were after artifacts & other sundry items for our wizard patron. So there wasn't any reason to fight. A quick trade of a copy of our map and some food netted us a magic ring from them. And then it was wishing each other luck & moving on. Our party told them about the trolls in this area & the goblin tribes with their huge hobbs. The hobgoblins wanted to trade for more arrows to which we were more then happy to do. The young hobgoblin warriors were scared of the hobbs and we noted this. <br />There's something quite frightening about hobgoblin warriors even if their away from their tribe being scared of hobbs?! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

More on that in a little bit, so Wretched Country follows closely on the heels of Wretched Bastards. And uses a simlar but not quite the same mechanic as the former OSR rpg. <br />Wretched Country clocks in at one hundred & thirty one pages of Old Western grim & trail dust taking the PC's down the evil & degenerate spiral of Western outlaw weirdness based partial on the thirteen deadly sins. And alignment we don't need your stinking alignment! This is straight up OSR PC system goodness ala the Wretched Bastards rpg. You can be anything from an assassin to an American Indian shaman. <br />The rub here is that not only is there a complete rpg in Wretched Country but its three games in one. How?! Because you've got 'The Devil's Country' which is literally a modern OSR Western rpg where you're PC's are the actors, film crew, etc. all headed into a cursed set which then brings you into the horrid Old Western. But wait there's more! <br />Your PC in Wretched Country can actually be within Hellstone the classic Weird Western or straight classic Western campaign setting. Or your PC's could be from The Devil's Country who have been completely whisked into the campaign setting. <br />And best of all Wretched Country is pretty close to B/X Dungeons & Dragons where its easy to pick up the rpg system then go play. <br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixGFXxh0FdGvm2Qiul6zcJakZuM9DjDDr4CXTKcvgKoOa_SyHy1yGR8Rw3ym-MzAMiLyDeDs6d0532EGDlIrgWCEaQydWS7edtIofX1JfKkyd-Yx9TZkOnrECRXCwB2_jMwBLtJfyd0omQbn3Yj2gtDASELIgx2fwRG5FiFXvS1cLnXv39Q4sIi8QP/s814/110792.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="color: #333333; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="814" data-original-width="619" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixGFXxh0FdGvm2Qiul6zcJakZuM9DjDDr4CXTKcvgKoOa_SyHy1yGR8Rw3ym-MzAMiLyDeDs6d0532EGDlIrgWCEaQydWS7edtIofX1JfKkyd-Yx9TZkOnrECRXCwB2_jMwBLtJfyd0omQbn3Yj2gtDASELIgx2fwRG5FiFXvS1cLnXv39Q4sIi8QP/w486-h640/110792.jpg" width="486" /></a><br /><br /></span><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">The Wretched Country rpg is one where the cinematic take is far more evident here then just about anywhere else. Is the game good?! Yes in my humble opinion the Wretched Country is solidly done and very well thought out. How does it stack with other OSR  Western Rpg's like say, Independence Games Rider? Well it doesn't. Wretched Country isn't meant to because its a cinematic Western OSR  horror rpg that takes on best of its subject matter and then comes back for more.</span> <br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/397915/Wretched-Country">The Wretched Country rpg By Miguel Ribeiro, & S铆lvia Clemente From The Red Room Is Available Here </a></span></b></span></div><br /></div><div style="background-color: white;

It was published in June 1992. This is one of those books that becomes a favorite over time. And time is how  one comes to appreciate this book, Why? Because when it comes to Greyhawk WGR2 'Treasures of Greyhawk' could be set in any era. 'Treasures of Greyhawk' isn't a reference book or supplement of Greyhawk. Well almost but not quite being instead a clever anthology of mini Greyhawk adventures.

This adventure anthology has enough hutzpa to be the campaign kick in the pants to get a gritty & quite nasty Greyhawk campaign off of the ground. And it's this element that allows this 96 page book to be slotted right into the back door of Greyhawk Adventure  Greyhawk Ruins quite nicely. Several of the dungeon & outdoor adventure elements from Greyhawk Ruins  slide into 'Treasures of Greyhawk' expanding upon what's come before or in addition to. <br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><img border="0" data-original-height="639" data-original-width="494" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbrvDm_hwZ1UL4bm8c_RuzXx1V58j61PpfkvoylEBREZYRH7f8v_ithkIWqH3Dqkmn-1KC71j3sLv_DAjnOpprVwDr-y4KDqY13MJqn2lHZ0W_hS5JuPqsZOtovYvESRzdL1ySvXOfs3-DcMCV5Nqq-3D20P4_A80X_wuHSzjLFcOT8YDt6o7Jbzt-/w494-h640/17421.jpg" width="494" /><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br />The blending of 2nd edition Greyhawk adventure elements is strongly centered around the Greyhawk 2nd edition campaign setting. This is something that encourages the DM to take elements of James Ward's Greyhawk Adventures book. Taking into account the events of Greyhawk Adventures timeline then we get the grimer & grittier Greyhawk we've come to expect. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg20_ycgB-cfiXVYPl3EoCRch-qGtuqom4ZjKSFC8N5A57mzXZZx9Qa82XQa6ZxnUkD7S28rwn2M4mUs9-1L0DpLsg73NS859I7JgVzU0v0K0iZr3PBjmXMMb7RagQPB_b7UrMeZI86_U5biKfdxsVwUUTJghyfiWWyZG9DtB-Ww9S0sU79bT5Ul_uv/s640/17407.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg20_ycgB-cfiXVYPl3EoCRch-qGtuqom4ZjKSFC8N5A57mzXZZx9Qa82XQa6ZxnUkD7S28rwn2M4mUs9-1L0DpLsg73NS859I7JgVzU0v0K0iZr3PBjmXMMb7RagQPB_b7UrMeZI86_U5biKfdxsVwUUTJghyfiWWyZG9DtB-Ww9S0sU79bT5Ul_uv/w480-h640/17407.jpg" width="480" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium;">These Greyhawk adventure & campaign elements loop around into the Greyhawk folio making the WGR2: "Treasures of Greyhawk" an easy fit for Castles & Crusades. Greyhawk 2nd edition makes sense as a C&C campaign setting because of the fact that it bypasses a lot of time consuming campaign work. And its far more interesting to OSR & old school players then the Troll Lords house campaign setting. Sorry but its been told to me by players not a personal opinion. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVkv90dtTnfox4srKF-FL7BjEn52m9NwwVNsR0-rCk3vAskjL4Kp6qzUp0Fzcn4Ujytgqb32rLDgEQ3qCO5RBnu7qNB2XITC5BwFT_FtoIA24EtzzaPQJ3DpqdvsdhhEWMOh6gEY9ZYzFz7OX9bWtbq7qzM5OHXDndZdtfwOgb5uF26Iv49RR03V6_/s1021/363234.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1021" data-original-width="800" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVkv90dtTnfox4srKF-FL7BjEn52m9NwwVNsR0-rCk3vAskjL4Kp6qzUp0Fzcn4Ujytgqb32rLDgEQ3qCO5RBnu7qNB2XITC5BwFT_FtoIA24EtzzaPQJ3DpqdvsdhhEWMOh6gEY9ZYzFz7OX9bWtbq7qzM5OHXDndZdtfwOgb5uF26Iv49RR03V6_/w502-h640/363234.jpg" width="502" /></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">C&C offers all of the modern game play without the having to relearn all of the D&D weirdness. Make a character, drop into  WGR2: "Treasures of Greyhawk",and run it like a regular 2nd edition Greyhawk campaign. <br />The City of Greyhawk offers the start point or in one of the world's smaller villages. And things will go down hill for the PC's. This is where its a perfect time to slip in an NPC traveller from the  Castles & Crusades NPC Almanac The Register.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

No sun rose, nor did the sound of a single person reach their ears, and all around them was ruin. Yet their target trugged on. This blog post is going to pick up <a href="https://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2022/05/the-future-martian-war-of-ten-million.html">from here.</a> <br />So its been a rather busy day & I got together with one of my players & long time friends today. And we started talking about his old Cepheus Engine rpg PC. And we spoke at length about his PC poking around the time quake. And the other party following his historian/historical anthropologist through time. The other party got lost in the mix within the local time space continuum's break down. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEoa6kkiFDMF46HO7Rw3aNed8EVmJcGA-LUIztmF0G6qEGXmGi-AwVIAzJbDtxMGjcwoO_hsGHrCE9TaLUrV9NOOtBbEiu9g7Y9JWATj0J7ZuNnL3uvB2lrA8Bib87YCXfwS_NVV9kAzDp4GJN2Ni6gBpM4mWc9PmiOalC4_zHnuWBLMmojhaecI5h/s639/254135.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="639" data-original-width="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEoa6kkiFDMF46HO7Rw3aNed8EVmJcGA-LUIztmF0G6qEGXmGi-AwVIAzJbDtxMGjcwoO_hsGHrCE9TaLUrV9NOOtBbEiu9g7Y9JWATj0J7ZuNnL3uvB2lrA8Bib87YCXfwS_NVV9kAzDp4GJN2Ni6gBpM4mWc9PmiOalC4_zHnuWBLMmojhaecI5h/s16000/254135.jpg" /></a><br /><br />The party was separated & ended up in two different time periods on the same Earth's line. But it took days for one time line to catch up with the other. So while the player's PC's were occupying the same space they were not in the same time. The party's psychics were reading that all of the PC's were in the same location but not the same time line. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">The party finally got the idea that they had to leave as the time line deteroirated around them.

As if the starship had been there for years it was coated with a massive waft of sulfur and other atmosphere dust coating its outer hull. <br />The party's sensors could not detect the contents of the Trade Empire ship! The crew of PC's  was forced to go aboard. And once aboard to find out that there were the prefabbed buildings,food,  & supplies for building several colonies on board! <br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi56BQqBsYQzia6YWh0Wz7WJgze1CXNCUTZxBh1ysNuuvfju-ZfaiE3QK8DbP2hv7ZB3gR6Wufqbn795MLCE3coSVkJP80sFfJ7iogFBR191_SIGzGhbajKcrmcKUz53SvuK2THjbtC9HeIW0Qz7cBDICU1LTB6W5gdQH2yG8uBtkcKnMX8BkkS7T12/s1194/390866.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1194" data-original-width="900" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi56BQqBsYQzia6YWh0Wz7WJgze1CXNCUTZxBh1ysNuuvfju-ZfaiE3QK8DbP2hv7ZB3gR6Wufqbn795MLCE3coSVkJP80sFfJ7iogFBR191_SIGzGhbajKcrmcKUz53SvuK2THjbtC9HeIW0Qz7cBDICU1LTB6W5gdQH2yG8uBtkcKnMX8BkkS7T12/w482-h640/390866.png" width="482" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">And there was also a time drive in place aboard this ship.

The Greyhawk Ruins is a part of the 2nd edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragon mega dungeon trend. And for the Castles & Crusade rpg style suits both the Greyhawk Ruins & even Robert Kuntz's  RJK1: "Bottle City" (2007) and </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: medium;">"The Original Living Room" (2007) adventure modules.<br /><span style="color: #333333;">The mega dungeon ideal is time tested & very well defined by the time we get to the second edition era. Its definition that was the megadungeon's undoing in a way. There were never enough adventures set witin the megadungeon settings to show DM's & players their real campaign potential in my opinion. </span></span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="background-color: white;">Greyhawk Ruins doesn't see this out and instead present a series of mini adventures & campaign seeds within. We see this ideal expanded upon within,"</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">Castle Greyhawk in </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> (2008), which revised some of the levels from "Greyhawk Ruins" and also invented new ones.

But my childhood friend DM Steve & his ilk of roudy rustlers borrowed a copy of the pdf some months ago. And I've not heard from them for a while. That is until last night when I got an email with his group having an opening for a sawbones or country doctor. The fact is unlike other CoC systems you as  player pick you career and then build the PC around that. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKfr9SWW7327cVZZKPb7K177vFRiNfFqbtLwOuTpskSZSdxfU3c14pyWkvsclo3YhlwyaEaVovu0-YfHyYiOxu9ECKLF6qds2hlWfDtbPqOX8ZpsjeUpjd1jsA-SDefvzqHyq69kLSMvYasg5SpP5TPQAjT5PmDb4FvZnYsOl2zLdGlU_awB7P0I02/s3282/Down-Darker-Trails.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3282" data-original-width="2554" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKfr9SWW7327cVZZKPb7K177vFRiNfFqbtLwOuTpskSZSdxfU3c14pyWkvsclo3YhlwyaEaVovu0-YfHyYiOxu9ECKLF6qds2hlWfDtbPqOX8ZpsjeUpjd1jsA-SDefvzqHyq69kLSMvYasg5SpP5TPQAjT5PmDb4FvZnYsOl2zLdGlU_awB7P0I02/w498-h640/Down-Darker-Trails.jpg" width="498" /></a><br /><br />There are a lot of new CoC  material that's been added into Darker Trails including over 30 monsters & two new realms. And now its a matter of getting caught up on what's been happening within DM Steve's campaign. <br />Now the truth is that for the past couple of months we've been using<a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/345383/Rider?src=also_purchased"> Independence Games Rider rpg</a> for most of our Clement & Earth sector rpg's. We'll get into that in another blog entry. But there are vast differences between Down Darker Trails & Rider. Rider is far more oriented towards a more historical & cinematic feel. While Down Darker Trails certainly has this but goes for the full on Lovecraftian Western feel! However I'm far more inclined to the Cepheus Engine itself because of the past two years of playing & DMing it. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi38nKvb-RcQfoecb3042qtJLQQ9QFZoToKLb3XUKLQXiirVhfBqOVARcijcQEKaF4Sevk73_AzgPbP27akxUifJBWWOxoDBFjIHVpQGisBqmHN000MZRYZ_iWHLvgHec3EiJWL_-Dw0UrdgLzu57W26NBK-MyHjv0V5e62BQaa_hpqTPzDXauGYPkL/s1194/345383.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1194" data-original-width="900" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi38nKvb-RcQfoecb3042qtJLQQ9QFZoToKLb3XUKLQXiirVhfBqOVARcijcQEKaF4Sevk73_AzgPbP27akxUifJBWWOxoDBFjIHVpQGisBqmHN000MZRYZ_iWHLvgHec3EiJWL_-Dw0UrdgLzu57W26NBK-MyHjv0V5e62BQaa_hpqTPzDXauGYPkL/w482-h640/345383.jpg" width="482" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">That being said, this isn't my rpg rodeo!

What makes it work?! All of the details & systems that have gone into The City of Greyhawk. Not only do you get the high mark NPC's but the low life scum all under one package.  The Friends, Foes and Factions sourcebook provides content worth the price of the package, detailing NPC's, factions, & guilds makes The City of Greyhawk worth getting alone. </span></span><br /><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhepInIu6wDxC-ihgKINZ9LgFH5kjb_NzXCRAwMuaXgc8Ez7-oiAnoBAdO_p29e4Q3djkw3K-qY9y0OKkBroPWL0HojQ_ySfw6gR3OVQALE3eZWsG7JqKk0ArqXRVKqieb5fOl4dIcfvlop9j-7Dh-ZvxmB3oxI_X1Q4egQpNbuXjQ3mXAJQy5mVPWj/s391/GGOF_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="391" data-original-width="300" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhepInIu6wDxC-ihgKINZ9LgFH5kjb_NzXCRAwMuaXgc8Ez7-oiAnoBAdO_p29e4Q3djkw3K-qY9y0OKkBroPWL0HojQ_ySfw6gR3OVQALE3eZWsG7JqKk0ArqXRVKqieb5fOl4dIcfvlop9j-7Dh-ZvxmB3oxI_X1Q4egQpNbuXjQ3mXAJQy5mVPWj/w492-h640/GGOF_.jpg" width="492" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">But will 'The City of Greyhawk' work for say Castles & Crusades?! Easily the stat blocks for the NPC's themselves convert over to mostly any edition of  Dungeons & Dragons. The twisting & turning of the city's maps can be printed out.

This is a must box set for anyone running the low or high life grittiness of the Greyhawk campaign world. <br />And 'The City of Greyhawk' box set is an excellent companion piece for James Ward's Greyhawk Adventure book.

But we  digress, Greyhawk's urban centers suit the full rank & treatment that Castles & Crusades provides even more so then the system's home campaign setting. Sorry, Trolls but its true even though there are place where the campaign setttings can & should overlap. And this is where Greyhawk Adventures and The City of Greyhawk shine. These old school resources blend & can be homebrewed into the mold that the DM needs & wants for his player's PC's. </span></div></div><br /> <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/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2022/05/other-osr-thoughts-on-city-of-greyhawk.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2022/05/other-osr-thoughts-on-city-of-greyhawk.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2022-05-21T23:14:00-07:00'>11:14 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2022/05/other-osr-thoughts-on-city-of-greyhawk.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=776074430024356342&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=7672684189982389944&postID=776074430024356342&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=7672684189982389944&postID=776074430024356342&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

A nightmare, long engendered in the modern mind by the mythology that follows in the wake of science, was falling off him. He had read of 'Space': at the back of his thinking for years had lurked the dismal fancy of the black, cold vacuity, the utter deadness, which was supposed to separate the worlds. He had not known how much it affected him till now-now that the very name 'Space' seemed a blasphemous libel for this empyrean ocean of radiance in which they swam. He could not call it 'dead'; he felt life pouring into him from it every moment. How indeed should it be otherwise, since out of this ocean all the worlds and all their life had come? He had thought it barren: he now saw that it was the womb of worlds, whose blazing and innumerable offspring looked down nightly even upon the earth with so many eyes-and here, with how many more!
