I went to VoP (aaaaalways VoP...) search page at http://www.mystaranet.jamm.com/vaults/html/search.html and searched "baldandar" OR "baldandars", receiving the following link, w= ith 5 cool hits: http://freefind.com/servlet/freefind?id=3D574922&pageid=3Dr&query=3Dbald= andar+baldandars&mode=3DFind+pages+matching+ANY+word The peculiar thing is that the Baldandar MM-like entry has the following = name: http://www.mystaranet.jamm.com/vaults/html/baldandr.html (is it "baldandr" and not "baldandr" to fit in the "8.3" format?) > > I was thinking of throwing one in with the Veiled Society to give the= m > > something extra, and my making-it-up-as-I-go-along background would h= ave > > them something to do with Old Alphatia > > Could be, though in a highly magical world, their illusions might have > been less effective as a hunting tool. > > Bye, > GP Buona!!!

Check out http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Dungeon/2967/prodlist.html It has brief descriptions of all the modules and a list of what new monsters appeared in them. I don't see "Baldandar" on that page, though.
