    D&D 5E Who are the famous characters of D&D

    I know this is Thread Necromancy ... but, this just kinda broke my heart a little. You're not wrong. The names in the PH and DMG are definitely mostly known for their spells or magic items. Many are from the Circle of Eight, a powerful cabal of wizards, or more generally from the World of...

    WotC Wizards of the Coast Is Moving -- But Not Far!

    As an editor: much of this thread has been about how insignificant the move is. However, one important note for those who must do such things is—citation and bibliography. Now, instead of, It might say, That's a minor difference, I know. It's also likely there are not a lot of people to whom...

    D&D 5E With Saltmarsh, how much of GH is now fair game?

    Considering it's actual legal advice which doesn't actually follow the actual policies of the DMsGuild or WotC, and there are plainly available products which support Greyhawk content ... it seems at least inaccurate. They meant well, I'm sure. But, there's not any basis for the list of...

    D&D 5E With Saltmarsh, how much of GH is now fair game?

    Well, No worries. The only catch is the "AFAIK". But, there's nothing wrong with that. Not knowing is simply not having gotten information, yet. But, I can help there. So, one can search names of individual adventures, and there's a slew of stuff. There's even DMsGuild Silver, Gold...

    D&D 5E With Saltmarsh, how much of GH is now fair game?

    I'm having a little difficulty following the rationale on this one. Iuz is mentioned in: The Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, Ghosts of Saltmarsh, Tales from the Yawning Portal, DMG, Princes of the Apocalypse, and Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes. That seems like more than enough to include him...

    D&D General [Greyhawk] Oerth Journal 31 released by GreyhawkOnline!

    Hey there, everyone! kind of a press release, here. The much-anticipated Oerth Journal #31 was just released on December 31st as a New Year's Eve kind-of special! FACTIONS OF GREYHAWK! It's a little bit of a benchmark for the magazine, too, because it's the first time it's ever been fully...

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    So … I have a question about "AD&D Adventure Gamebook 2: The Ghost Tower (May 1985)". I just bought the book, which is apparently fairly rare, because I found it listed here. I managed to find it from a used bookseller in California on Etsy, of all places. It was only $4.99 instead of being...

    Greyhawk Collector's Guide

    I found a neat, obscure little addition for you! Under "Chainmail: Rules and rules expansions" for the minis game … there's an obscure product that came out at the end of the line, just as it was cancelled. Set 4 wasn't ever entirely finished in production, from what I understand … But ...

    D&D 5E Age of Worms Adventure Path

    Perhaps there's someone whose competition party got killed, and he's the only one left. … or there was someone who got left out/disqualified and wasn't able to participate in the Games, and happens to be a friend of a guard who can get him in?

    Visual Guide Races of Greyhawk???

    Here's another site for you to gander at, from Greyhawk Online. While these aren't "real world" photos, or anything, it has really good Visual References for all the ethnicities of the World of Greyhawk.

    Who in the World is James M. Ward?

    Probably because the earliest version had Cthullu and Melnibonean mythos in it, which was later removed. You ought to see if you have two different printings that have very, very minor differences … it seems like something a collector would have! :)

    D&D 5E Age of Worms Adventure Path

    Abandoned Mine Office On the topic of the Abandoned Mine office … It's clear in the AoW Overload, the actual adventure, and the Backdrop: Diamond Lake that the Abandoned Mine Office (and therefore the entrance to the Whispering Cairn) were placed differently at separate iterations of the...

    D&D 5E Age of Worms Adventure Path

    Actually, I'm a long-time player, too. I'm "of an age", so to speak. I started back in AD&D 1st Edition. (Thought it was just called "AD&D" back then, LOL!!) This is my third run of AoW, and you're definitely right about the shower scene … it can be lethal if goofed up. And re...

    D&D 5E Age of Worms Adventure Path

    AoW 5e DMs Guild suggesion Alrighty now!! I've made it through the end of the whole thread now! I read it in three installments! I've made edits to my copies of the PDFs noting the few corrections for typos or left out info, etc. the things that you explain, I almost always agreed with your...
