[Deamoclese]

I haven't seen Direkobold.com update their site or respond to my e-mails in about 2 months I think.. they gone under?

Yeah, the thread Don referred to has the story. Basically I had a kid and it took longer than I thought. We'll be going completely live tommorrow (accepting subscriptions) and have a new adventure by Wil Upchurch. Sorry to leave you hanging. Also I thought I was doing pretty good keeping on top of my e-mail, so if I missed something try me again.

Congratulations on the new little one

April 14, 2003 - DireKobold.com is pleased to announce the launch of our D20
Adventure E-zine. DireKobold will be publishing three new adventures a
month each of which will be enhanced with the Xenogenic Publishing System(TM).

Also at this time we are publishing the second installment in Wil Upchurch's
acclaimed Adventure Path Series, "Chronicles of Anyaka: History's Horrors Are
Often Buried Deep" available only to paid subscribers.

Subscription Details: Subscriptions range from $3.50/month to $34.00/year
and include access to all of the past adventures in the DireKobold.com
archive. The three adventures will be published each month around the 5th,
15th and 25th of the month.

Currently we are only accepting PayPal, but we will be accepting credit
cards subscriptions by the end of April (if not sooner) through RPGNow.com.

In addition to the full subscription we have introduced a Demo Subscription
for those who want to try out a couple adventures before they commit. We
are also introducing a new feature, an Editorial/Blog, titled "View from the
Bushes".

Xenogenic Publishing System: All adventures available through DireKobold.com
are enhanced with the Xenogenic Publishing System. This allows you to customize
each adventure to suit your particular campaign and adventuring party. Enter the
number of characters in the party (from 1 to 12) and the average party level
(over a range of 7 levels) and the Xenogenic Publishing System will
automatically adjust the power and number of the monsters to match the strength
of the party.

Additional features allow you to choose the percentage of recommended treasure,
the percentage of max hit points, and whether monsters ability scores are high,
low or merely average. On top of everything already mentioned advanced options
allow you to modify trap DCs, magic item scarcity and stat block format with
more to come! Should you want to increase your level of control even further,
all creatures are split into three categories: general, named and npc, and
options can be set independently for each group.
