May 26, 2004 8:28:14 I made this thread since so many people have the module now and of course probably wish to discuss things within it. DM's can discuss the module here without worrying about their players seeing it.

[u]PLAYERS SHOULD STOP READING NOW![/u]

May 26, 2004 8:32:55 When they found Huma's in Chronicles wasn't it ruined. Did that get fixed by the guy that made the lance's? I don't remember.

Huma's lance is a magic item in the mdule.

May 26, 2004 8:47:41 I read the Chronicles so long ago that I cannot even recall the books. Where do they find Huma's lance(in the module) ?

The Mariner could have travelled with the Mikku tribe from Ak Khurman and you could introduce him when they meet the Mikku. As far as the Mystic goes you could have him or her sent by the Citadel of Light for some mission, maybe to deliver a message to the Legion of Steel in Ak Khurman or Pashin even.

Huma's lance wasn't found in Chronicles, it was found in the Dragons of a New Age Trilogy (Day of the Tempest), where it was used as part of Malystryx's bid to become a goddess....

I was actually thinking along these lines. I want the mystic to be affiliated with the qualinesti mystic and have both of them travel from the Schallsea Isles together(I will not reveal the entire storyline just yet.). My only problem is where will they meet up with the PC's ?

What they found in Chronicles was a Knight mounted on a Silver Dragon encased in ice. They never flat out said it was Huma in the chronicles trilogy but alluded that it may be. I don't know if this was ever confirmed anywhere else in books or modules.

Nope, it wasn't Huma... it was alluded to, originally, yes, but since then we know (thanks to the Legend of Huma) that Huma died fighting Takhisis a lot further north than Icewall... plus... why would they build Huma's Tomb in Ergoth, if Huma was frozen in ice down in Icewall? ;)

I figured so, but before Legend of Huma came out when I was *cough* younger. I always imagined there was a story where he got secretly resurected to fight one last battle, and died alone in Icewall, and that became his fate. A truly tragic fate for the hero. But that was just my imagination.

The Barbarian is human and is a female. She is quick to attack and does not take any slack from anyone.

May 28, 2004 16:40:11 I'm not exactly sure this is the proper thread to post this question on, but it certainly doesn't seem to warrant one of its own. So here it goes:

What information, if any, does the Key of Destiny offer on the Khurish "versions" of the Krynnish gods?

One of my players was thinking about being a Khurish cleric, but neither of us know the first thing about Khurish belief, faith, ritual, worship, etc.

Thanks in advance,

Shade

May 28, 2004 21:28:22 I don't believe it details them, but here is a short list and there is a bit more information (three paragraphs on page 117) in the Age of Mortals sourcebook under the regional description of Khur. The SAGA book Heroes of Hope (Book One page 57) has the most info on them.

Elir-sana, "Daughter" (Mishakal) (Females clerics only)
Great God (High God/Chislev)
Kargath (Kiri-Jolith)
Rakris (Habbakuk/Chislev)
Sky-Father(High God/Chislev)
Torghan the Avenger (Sargonnas)

May 30, 2004 1:43:30 I have one question, cause i know my players will wonder about this.

When they come upon the Mikku tribe and talk to Alakar, he says "on the morrow we all may die.", was he just speaking metaphorically. That's what I'm guessing due to the fact that it doesnt go inot that at all/ But knowing my players, they will probalby ask why they may die tomorrow.

I just want to double check on this.

May 30, 2004 2:35:27 yeah, its basically a "live for today" type of message.
and i believe he says on the morrow we _may_ die, which is different.

I don't have access to Heroes of Hope, nor enough loose change to buy a book for just one page, so I would really appreciate it if someone could elaborate a little further on the Khurish aspects of the gods.

The player has now changed her idea to a ranger/druid, so information on Sky-Father, Rakris, Great God would be especially helpful.

Is this PrC in one of the original 3.0 splatbooks or one of the v.3.5 DL books ?

Here is a summary of the most important parts.

The people of Khur do not actually acknowledge the existance of the pantheon that the other people of Ansalon worship. They have their own gods that in some cases seem to combine the aspects of two gods to create one. The Khur believe the Sky-father is the father of all the gods. He takes on the aspect of the High-God and Chislev.

(So basically Chislev would provide the spells for clerics of this god. )

It just says that Rakris may be a manifestation of Habbukuk and/or Chislev. (He is also known as the Hunter's God.)

Khurs religious beliefs are so strong that even during the Cataclsym of the 5th Age they have never wavered in their worship of them. Despite the fact that the gods go through periods where they do not grant divine spells the people of Khur refused to belive that "their gods" would abandon the world entirely. They are simply testing the devotion of their people.

During the War of the Lance the armies of Takhisis and Paladine fought in a war for the gods of foriegners, lesser gods for a lesser people. Attempts to convert khurs to the worship of Takhisis and Paladine largely failed.
