That might just be the funniest thing I've read all month. It's the lisp that sells it. And I shaved off my beard last week, so there. :)

Van Richten's Arsenal has the dirgist, a bard that specializes in the macabre.

Ack! The Kargatane have nothing to do with the creation of this netbook. It's being organized by fans who use the Kargatane message boards, and the Kargatane may well offer to host the netbook once/if it's done (just as they've hosted other folks' netbooks). But that's as far as the connection...

Aha! Duh. Thanks. Basically, Heroes of Light and Champions of Darkness are player books (full of crunchy goodies and the like) that present flip sides of the same coin: HoL focuses on PCs who are battling external darkness (i.e., white-hats), while CoD focuses on PCs who are battling an inner...

Oh, and here's a web extra I wrote for it back in the day: http://www.kargatane.com/secrets/carnival.shtml

The second edition Carnival sourcebook was fairly rules light, so converting it shouldn't be too beastly. In fact, I believe Carnival is revisited in Champions of Darkness, which comes out this month, handily enough. It may help with the conversions. And Carnival includes nods to Something...

Sorry 'bout this; I couldn't figure out how to post a comment under the review, so I'm sticking this here. In the review, Special Guest Pariah wrote: "I recently found out at the company website (www.Kargatane.com) that there will very likely be no official errata, so any creature I intend to...

That would have been my first suggestion. Not van Richten himself, no, but the Weathermay-Foxgrove twins have taken up his banner and generally need more help than he did. :)

I do, sure, both to get a feel for audience tastes and for the old fashioned reason -- to see what products I want to pick up as a DM. My "I'll buy one of everything to support the OGL/D20L concept" philosophy didn't last very long. :) Depends. If I'm reading a review for someone else's...

The wolfwere can also be found in Denizens of Darkness.

My only suggested change: Somewhere, at some point, post a complete list of every product entered for consideration.

Worth noting that www.solomonkane.com also sells a limited edition collection of Howard's Kane tales.

We have a dhampir template in Denizens of Darkness. Not OGC, though; sorry.

That's not actually the case. Ravenloft and Call of Cthulhu are very different styles of game. Keep in mind that having a shadow set out to wipe out the world is out of character for it; in fact, most of these "undead will wipe out the world" scenarios depend on ignoring the respective...

Because they don't exist in a vacuum. If one lives in a world rife with vampires, one also lives in a world with people who know how to destroy vampires. In an RPG, that generally means "adventurers." BTW, I have to say I'm honestly depressed that Ravenloft's barely received a mention in this...

Personally, my edjumacated guess would be to take the ECL of the base animal and add 2. So that would net the following ECLs, based on Dragon #293: Werebear (brown bear): ECL 12 Wereboar: ECL 9 Wererat (dire rat): ECL 4 Weretiger: ECL 12 Werewolf: ECL 5.

It really depends on how common you want gunpowder in the setting. In Ravenloft, it's an Alchemy check with a DC of 15.

The hebi-no-onna from Denizens of Darkness can control snakes, as well.
