Questions for Monte Cook?

[RangerWickett]

Dear Monte Claus:

For Christmas, could I have a book that has a unified spell system that can cover both arcane and divine magic in a diverse and balanced fashion capable of covering nearly every variety of Sword & Sorcery fiction magic? And could you tell me why you keep designing games? I mean, we all know you're father Christmas and want to make all the good boys and girls who play D&D happy, but what in particular makes gaming the job you want to have?

Oh, and . . . um, could you give my girlfriend Jessica a Frodo toy? She really likes hobbits.

What have I got in my pocket?

Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil is a masterful work. That said, I believe it is deadly, and that the CRs of the areas may be a bit low due to the dynamic nature of the adventure. Only one player in my group has his original character. Could you speak to that?

 

[Sayburr]

Is he surprised by the amount of discussion regarding his "secret project"?

"Is it my precious....mmmm precious, my precious"

I'd like to ask him.....

How he feels about the OGL and the opening up of our game to all to have a go with?
What his feelings are of NetBooks, anf their future?
What other roleplaying games he likes to play, if any?
What he thought of the D&D Movie?
Does he know if the rumours are true of a Forogtten Realm series in the vein of Xena are true?
Will you adopt me and let me live in your cellar?
And, Monte can you cook?

What's the worst dungeon (or portion thereof) you've ever designed? What made it so bad? Do you ever use it? Could it be fixed? If so, how?

What's your favorite D and D book (any edition)?

What is your favorite type of non-dairy creamer?

 

[Morrus]

Does he know if the rumours are true of a Forogtten Realm series in the vein of Xena are true?

Well, both WotC and Fireworks have released press releases, and Anthony Valterra has confirmed it in interview, so I'd hazard that this no longer constutues a rumour..
