The staff of Canonfire! is proud to present:
AN OVERVIEW OF OERIK
Scottenkainen writes "The Flanaess is just one part of the larger continent
of Oerik. What else is out there has always been a subject for debate, but
here is the first attempt to detail the rest of the continent that takes
multiple sources into account. So explore the lands of Minaria, Kara-Tur,
and the Flanaess again -- or for the first time!"

HIDDEN SHRINE OF THARIZDUN, AD&D 1e CONVERSION.
Mammon writes:
Just so all you grognards don't feel left out, here is an OAD&D conversion
of my formerly 3rd Edition D&D mini-module, "The Hidden Shrine of
Tharizdun." So sit back, kids, and let me take you to the days of high
adventure, when Tharizdun was still the mysterious "form on the black," when
a norker was to be feared, when players everywhere knew that a failed saving
throw versus poison meant instant death, and when a certain adventure module
of a scant 32 pages -- "WG4 The Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun," the very
inspiration for this piece -- could fill a tad of 12 years with enough
wonderment to last him a lifetime. This piece is for you most of all Gary
Gygax, and in the language of your masterpiece of a game, OAD&D -- a game I
still play to this very day!

AND SPEAKING OF THARIZDUN
For those who missed it, Canonfire! staffer Grodog has acquired an excellent
document from the hoard of Robert J Kuntz wherein Rob delves into the
mysteries of Tharizdun and Tarrasques in Greyhawk.

I've actually read these articles and thought they were well written. I would encourage other's to do the same.

Argon's absolutely right. The detail and thoughtfulness are of professional quality. Perfect for a side-trek or supplement to any game with virtually any deity. But Tharizdun buffs will really appreciate it.
