Anywhere that isn't > used that often would work well, too. I think the reason for making him a Glantrian was the connection between him and that Glantrian spell. Ofcourse, if he were Alphatian, that could explain why the Glantrians would not give him credit for inventing the spell...

I stopped for a while when Dragon went 3E, before I converted myself, but now I'm back, and Campaign Classics issues and other mentions of Mystara is keeping me to it. I prefer the good old Dragon articles to the new ones, since I dont use PrCs and rarely allow non-core Feats and many articles have been centered around that, but I still keep buying it. Very much looking forward to the next VotPA installment in the June issue. In fact I can hardly wait...! Håvard --- Joe Kelly skrev: > Do you subscribe or buy it off the shelf?

PA, short for VotPA=Voyage of the Princess Ark. This was an ongoing story in Dragon Magazine following the Alphatian Prince Haldemar of Haaken (spl), captain of the skyship the Princess Ark and his crew journeying across the surface of Mystara. Each episode detailed a new part of the world, and usually also presented some new rules, class, race, monster etc for Classic D&D connected with the story and region explored. Much of the VotPA takes place in the Savage Coast area and the Red Steel/Savage Coast campaign setting was based heavily on the original VotPA series. Most of VotPa was collected in the Champions of Mystara boxed set. And a brand new episode will be appearing in the June issue of Dragon, and it will be written by Bruce Heard himself! According to Bruce, the new episode will focus on Haldemar's relations with Queen Eriadna and the nobles of Alphatia. Can't wait to see it!

I like "Land of the Red Sun", though each culture realistically would have its own name (or more than one) so any of the ones suggested could be used to represent those. > 2. Same for the Broken Lands. Is that really what > the orcs call it? I think the Orc name would have a meaning like Holy Land or Promised Land, since that is what it is to them. Or perhaps simply "home".
