Jun 16, 2004 2:17:50 We know that there will continue to be greyhawk stuff in the paizo mags, so what would you like to see expanded on?

I really like the idea of the People of the Testing, so I'd like to see more on them. I'm really looking forward to the Knights of the Holy Sheilding stuff, the greyhawk organisations float my boat.

I'd also like to see more on specific city locations (Rel Astra?), and a 3.5 update of the animus.

What would you guys like to see?

PS I'm also posting this thread over at ENWorld...

Jun 16, 2004 4:22:38 Anything but the Greyhawk Domain. Love it, but overdone.

I agree on Rel Astra. We need a new city and a new focus, the east is wide open and ripe for plunder. Irongate and Zelradton would be good focal points as well.

Jun 16, 2004 6:40:30 Given we already have Greyhawk covered ("neutral" city), I would like to see a "good" city (Mitrik?) and an "evil" city (Rel Astra?).

Jun 16, 2004 9:50:49 I would like to see cities with classes and class level demographics on the larger cities like Greyhawk, Chendl, Rel Mord and others similar to FRCS supplements. Particularly Greyhawk with the Magical University and it's guild of wizardry.

I'd also like seeing some black and white (color is fine) maps of various countries with anything larger than a village listed on the map.

A single page 3.5 update and writeup occassionally of some of the significant NPCs like Kierien Jalucian or some of the different rulers.

I'd also like seeing a short one or two page breakdown (just a short paragraph about a house and it's leader) on the nobility in some of the larger kingdoms like Furyondy, Nyrond and Keoland.

Jun 16, 2004 9:53:24 I'd like to see Dyvers (I know it's in or around the Domain of GH, Mort) but I think it would be cool. If I'm not mistaken, and please correct me if I am, isn't Dyvers kind of Venice-like with canals, bridges and islands? That'd make a cool map.

Jun 16, 2004 10:48:47 I'd like to see information on cities that have never had any information published before, such as Zeif, Cryllor, Ratikhill, and so forth. Brief details of major npcs (class, level, alignment), military strength, and a little bit of politics.
#7

Jun 16, 2004 20:49:52 I'd love to see more details on Rel Astra. Fluff details, that is. I don't much care for "crunch." Maps and descriptions of the various quarters of the city would be very nice, though. I'd also like write ups on the political climate inside the city, the positions of the various guilds, adventure hooks, etc.

Jun 17, 2004 2:14:31 I'd love to see material detailing the Baklunish. The people, their lands, their gods.

Campaign material, rather than game mechanics (although I wouldn't mind the latter in addition to the former). Some info for a campaign centred in the Baklunish lands. I'd prefer that any day to Al-Qadim (and I really like Al-Qadim, so that's saying something).

Jun 17, 2004 11:50:57 I would like to see good, consistant, continous art. On the scale of the art that gets produced for the FR, but with more of a Greyhawk flavor.

That would be entirely new to me. AFAIK the only canon represantation of Dyvers is from Slavers by SKR and in that product it is treated as a city with an ordinary harbour.

The alternative non-canon representation in the Oerth Jounals does not depict Dyvers as Venice-like either. To be more correct it doesn't even have a riverside at all and portrays it rather as an inland city.

Jun 19, 2004 1:01:31 Hmm, Blackmoor sounds interesting, but I'd like a Book of the People of Flanaess, just as we used to have books of elves or dwarves.

Jun 20, 2004 16:17:20 I'd love to see new deity stats, along with new deity-related prestige classes, spells, etc. etc. etc. Also, some stuff on the druids of the Flanaess would also be very nice.

I'm still pretty new with greyhawk considering that the only thing that has been printed since i started using it was the Gazatteer in 2000. Where exactly is Chendl?

Chendl is the capital of Furyondy. Its a planned city with canals and such. The city took quite a beating by Iuz back in the GH Wars. You can find good maps/info on it in Fate of Istus and Marklands.

Jun 21, 2004 14:04:07 Blackmoor would be good!

What about conversions of other modules, such as Against the Giants, or the Aeryie of the Slave Lords etc?

The Tomb of Horrors

The Ghost Tower of Inverness! That was a great tourney mod!!!

Jun 21, 2004 17:36:28 I agree that Rel Astra should get some detail. In fact, I'd like to see all the former lands of the Great Kingdom expanded, including the mess in Rauxes.

Some of us in the Greychat a few weeks ago were lamenting the lack of adventures in the former Great Kingdom (other than Living Greyhawk, which greatly limits access to their adventures), which is packed to the hilt with potential for great adventures. For example, you have:

The Coldwood, Bitterness, and Hunger
The Spear of Sorrow
Several Death Knights
Rauxes
Rel Astra
Several Animuses (Amimi?)
The Causeway of Fiends & the Isle of Lost Souls
The Cauldron of Night
Vernport (I ran Green Ronin's Freeport adventures here)
Ivid's second son, who fled to Delaric (Ivid the Undying)
Delglath the Undying
Icespire
Spinning Cloud
The Walker
Medegia
Gwydiesin of the Cranes
The Bonewood
Midnight Darkness
The Web
Almor
Nightsong
Xavener
Grennel
General Reynard

In short, a crapload of untapped adventure!

As the metaplot guy for the Spintered Sun (Iron League and Ahlissa + sattelites) Metaregion in LG (who's task it is to run the numbers on all these different plot threads...oh the power!), I can tell you that some of those will be making an appearance in LG metaregional modules in the next year and a half.
Maybe in Cores too...

Which ones?
Well, that'd be telling...
