One thing I would like to see is if someone could go through all the novels related to Mystara and make an analysis of them. What period would they be set? What characters are introduced? Any Magical items and monsters? Any historical or otherwise setting relevant information? About the Knights of Darokin: Im not sure when Darokin was founded but there was a Kingdom of Darokin at the time of the Dragonlord Chronicles. This makes sense, as the Knights of Darokin probably were abolished when Darokin became a republic.

I need more time to read through it all, but having this all compiled is just wonderful. You should consider creating a pdf-file with all this and call it the Mystara Dragons Netbook or something... Good work!

Just out of curiosity, are you still working on your mapping project? I always liked those maps.

So, in case any of you want to try it, here it is Rat On A Stick Ingredients 1 to 1-1/2 lbs. ground beef 1/2 cup finely crushed cheddar cheese crackers 1 egg 1/4 tsp. black pepper 1/2 lb. cheese (Colby, Colby Cheddar, or Jack Colby) 1 Tbsp. honey 1 cup barbecue sauce 8 wooden meat skewers or equivalent - For optional tails - 4 pieces spaghetti red food coloring Instructions Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cut cheese into half-inch cubes. Impale cheese cubes on skewers, dividing cheese cubes evenly among skewers. In large bowl, mix beef, egg, cracker crumbs, and pepper. If mixture doesn't stick together well, add 2 tablespoons milk. Divide mixture into 8 sections. Press each section flat until 1/2 inch thick. Wrap each stick of cheese in a section of meat. Make sure there are no holes or cracks in the meat that would let the cheese leak out while baking. Shape top end of meat "rat"into a point. Optional tails: Fill a small saucepan with water and add four drops of red food coloring. Bring to a boil. Break 4 sticks of spaghetti in half. Place spaghetti in water, leaving one end out of water. When spaghetti has softened and turned pink, remove from water. Using unsoftened end, insert 1 piece of spaghetti into round end of "rat". Drape soft end of spaghetti around handle of stick. Place "rats" on baking sheet. (one with sides) Dribble honey over "rats". Pour barbecue sauce over "rats" Bake 30 minutes at 400 degrees F, basting and turning occasionally. Serve to hungry gamers. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
