If Thoughts Could Kill is one of my favorite adventures of all time. (shrug)

As far as I'm concerned, they are the only people that could do it justice.
For what it's worth, Die, Vecna, Die! was not a designer-driven book. Monte once mentioned that it was, shall we say, not how the designers would have handled things if they were given any choice from management.Psion said:No, the particular objects of my ire here are Die Vecna Die (which pretty much breaks every Planescape convention)...

Nifft said:Yeah, maybe it should be done Lords of Madness style, with different chapters about different groups that visited the Far Realms and came back. So, a chapter on kaorti, a chapter on ... uh ... yeah. More chapters after that.
But the point is, each chapter would present one view of the Far Realms, and none of the views would agree with each other. Depending on who (or what) the PCs encounter, their information about the Far Realms would be different.
It's still up to the DM what "local conditions" hold if the PCs ever decide to visit, but he'd have several cool vistas to draw from.
Anyway... someone go write it! Now!
