This was a 4e description of a Mystara thing. Why I mention I was not a fan of 4e, was that normally I wouldn't post or do anything in 4e, but this, well, was a Mystara item, so it is nice to see something come from our esteemed campaign world. Right now, I'm trying to find a way to get PDF versions of the last Dungeons from Paizo, which had gorgeous maps of Isle of Dread. Though they tried to Greyhawk-ize them, much of the material could be used. - Joaquin --- On Mon, 9/21/09, MYSTARA-L automatic digest system wrote: > From: MYSTARA-L automatic digest system > Subject: MYSTARA-L Digest - 19 Sep 2009 to 20 Sep 2009 (#2009-50) > To: MYSTARA-L@ORACLE.WIZARDS.COM > Date: Monday, September 21, 2009, 12:00 AM > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

(Mystara Campaign in Seoul, Korea) We haven't down much except roll up player characters. There's 6 characters, controlled by 3 players. Our group has grown now. ^.^ We have - 1. Calarii Elven Fighter 2. Vyalia Elven Ranger 3. Gnome Rogue 4. Dwarven Fighter 5. Traladaran Ranger (Zirchev, Hunter) 6. Thyatian Paladin (Church of Karameikos) The human ranger is this hunter type persona, one that chases creatures like vampires, werewolves, demons, and their monstrosities that plague mankind. Right now they are heading to a new town (Traladaran free town outside the laws of the Duke) called Falcon's Hollow, which is set into a wild wilderness. All the players have different reasons to go to this town, anything from looking for cultists, seeking ancient stronghold of lost dwarven colony, securing supply of darkwood, or finding some rare herb that only grows in this region. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

One of my reasons for linking lycanthropy to vampirism (yes - even before Underworld came out) was to provide a way for lycanthropic bloodlines to be created. I never went on to detail any of those, but IIRC others have done some work in that area. It might also be interesting to take some of GPs vampiric bloodlines and work out what different breeds of lycanthropes descended from such bloodlines would be like. I'd be interested in tossing some ideas around if you like. ******************************************************************** The Other Worlds Homepage: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/OtherWorlds.asp The Mystara Homepage: http://www.pandius.com To unsubscribe, send email to LISTSERV@ORACLE.WIZARDS.COM with UNSUB MYSTARA-L in the body of the message. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 18:43:12 -0700 From: Joaquin Menchaca Subject: New Campaign Portal I setup my campaign portal, using this site.

I found some mentions of clans in Thyatian Gazetteer. Scribbles in Kingdom of Karameikos, and GAZ1 Grand Duchy of Karameikos. Their location in Karameikos from B10. And potentially a religion, if we wanted to place B7 Rahasia around Vyalia elves. Is there anything besides this? I have my own material and a wealth of ideas, but I wanted to look for what is available already. ******************************************************************** The Other Worlds Homepage: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/OtherWorlds.asp The Mystara Homepage: http://www.pandius.com To unsubscribe, send email to LISTSERV@ORACLE.WIZARDS.COM with UNSUB MYSTARA-L in the body of the message. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 18:49:07 -0700 From: Joaquin Menchaca Subject: Foresters? What do people think about this? A lot of people were enthusiastic about this, but really it is just a way to play a Fighter/Wizard in DnD0e rules. I made them Rangers IMC, and made Rangers restricted to only particular orders (as I did with Psionic classes, Druids, Paladins, and Monks). __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
