    Questions about your campaign  

    Last Post By: WotC_Trevor

    Can't really speak for the Monday night group but we Wednesday nighters get an XP update between sessions, and while I've never done the math, I like the pace that we're progressing through our levels in concert with progressing the story. It should

    Handling the Loss of the Linguist Feat  

    Last Post By: morandir62

    the eladrin warlord learned Linguist feat, gaining the knowledge to read and write 3 languages, at 6th level, then lost them with retraining at 12th level.  How do you handle the sudden loss of so much character knowledge?  Do you grant modifiers

    How are you handling PC control over ships?  

    Last Post By: morandir62

    The rules for vehicles are in the Adventurer's Vault pages 15-17.  To operate the ship you simply have to be in control of the pilot/driver postion and use a move action - no feat required.

    Scale of the World Map and culture question  

    Last Post By: Connors1

    Wow, this campaign has come a long way from when I first viewed it (before Chris had actually begun playing it I believe). Had all the background info...I made my own maps and wrote up each area as a region (much like in FRPG), then played the campai

    Which Map has Kheth on it?

    "All over the place" is, I think, more apt than "kicking butt."We jumped down the rabbit hole and bamphed halfway across the world. Next week is the second half of Chris's Halloween adventure, and I just know he's got something nasty planned.

    Seeds for PHB 2&3 Classes and Races  

    Last Post By: emblasochist

    That is the concept, yes.  You have introduced the races of the PHB 3 that have been announced.  PHB 2's content in particular ought to be introduced, because my players love Primal classes, as do I, but my hooks aren't really well developed.  I c

    Still adjusting to this new WotC Community thing, so I hope this is the right place. Anyway, I love what I'm seeing. I'm definitely considering borrowing this setting myself. I particularly love how the sea has borders on all sides, much like old sailing maps marking the end of charted waters with "Here there be dragons." Except it's here in the setting that there be dragons. Clever twist. And the deadly borders are truly evocative. I love fantastic terrain like this. I would really love to play in a game and discover the secrets of the Black Veil, or explore the Eye of Io, or fight to escape the pull of the Demonmaw Sargasso. If I ran an Iomandra campaign, I would definitely include a run-in with Tao Feng, was it? I can't seem to view the wiki anymore. Is this a bug, or is that just because I'm not a member of this group? Anyway, I'm talking about the dracolich. I'd give him custom stats including a soul shroud like death giants and death titans have. The waters around his island would be inky black, with the lost souls appearing to be in the water. Maybe to the extent of what we see in the Underworld in Disney's Hercules. More likely just moaning faces that you barely glimpse before they vanish from sight. An island always surrounded by ghostly mist, etc. It is obviously a haunted island.

    I'm still up in the air about this myself, but I think it might be worth considering using Aberrant Dragonmarks to represent the taint upon the bloodlines of those who slew Io's three fallen children. Contagion traces to the slayers of one exarch, Terror to a second, and Madness to the third.

    This is fantastic work Chris, part of me would love to see it published commercially, but then again, the sparse detail is much more evocative.


    I wonder if this is what drives Forgotten Realms & Greyhawk grognards to praise only the early editions?


    Anyway, I just wanted to express my gratitude for putting it up Chris, very inspirational. I think my players will be exploring Iomandra soon...

    Cheers,

    I hear about this game pretty regularly from WotC_Trevor, it sounds like a great time.
