    Is Kingdoms of Kalamar worth it?

    Wow, there has been a lot of discussion since I last looked in on this thread. Doc, I usually end up playing pre-made modules also due to my work and family schedule. Even though I have many plots running around in my head I just don't have time to write them down into cohesive adventures...

    Kingdoms of Kalamar questions

    Well put Dristram: Here is a real world situation. World War II. The Japanese believed they were acting Lawful Good and if the concept existed they would quickly tell you that they were lawful good. The Americans didn't think so, though. I could easily see a paladin vs. paladin fight since...

    Is Kingdoms of Kalamar worth it?

    You may get a lot of replies and debating on this subject... I, for one, love the Kalamar setting. I started DMing in my own world and then moved to Greyhawk later. When FR came out with 2ed I switched but I soon became disillusioned with FR and with D&D so I stopped playing. When 3ed came...

    Thanks, Kenzer and Company!

    I don't want anyone to be disappointed with the setting guide. It is a large book and it is just a setting guide. You will find no PrCs or additional feats or anything like that. I think that is why some people don't like Kalamar, because it is just a setting. The PrCs and additional feats...

    Best d20 Setting?

    I liked Greyhawk better then FR and I guess that is what first drew me to Kalamar. It feels more like a "real" world to me. No, I can't qualify what I mean but I may be able to shed some light on it. FR feels like a cartoon world to me (everyone is so powerful that a character can fall from a...

    Thanks, Kenzer and Company!

    I have played though "Root of all Evil" and I must say it is a very good adventure. My group has also enjoyed it. If you are interested you can follow the links in my sig to read a story hour of the module. Also, it seems Kalamar is fairly popular... see this thread...

    D20 Weapons Supplement

    I think you need to shop around and find a publisher willing to do a print run for you. PDFs are fine, but you are handcuffed by a smaller buying market... only those who find your site and are willing to buy without seeing the entire product and who are willing to use a credit card... also...

    [Meta] How many story hours do you read?

    I have to admit, I only post mine incase someone wants to see how the Kalamar modules go and I only read Bill Clark's which is another Kalamar campaign. I sure wish I had more time to read others, though, because I do enjoy them when I get the time to go browsing.

    Best d20 Setting?

    I voted for Kalamar due to its well thought out evolution and the multiple cultures within the setting. I know a lot of people say Kalamar is boring, but almost every paragraph that is written in the city sections has a plot hook. I played GreyHawk and I have played FR. IMHO Kalamar...

    The Road to Xaarum The banging comes again. I place my forearm across the fat spy’s throat and my finger against the center of my lips. “Remember, your sister,” I whisper. The banging comes again, louder this time. What are they doing down there? Are they trying to let them wake the whole...

    Lightning in a Bottle We decided to stay split up to cover more ground in the same time, since only the person at the front of the column could engage the pests in the tight confines of the tunnels. We continued our crawl, marking our way and killing the little beasts as we went. We had to find...

    A Moment of Clarity and the Forging of Power I can see them as plain as day but larger than life. Watcher and Risk. They are at some gameboard like that of Go but with multiple layers of boards in play at once. Watcher usually seems to calculate his moves with an occasional impulse one thrown...

    Betrayal and Death in the Jungle Watcher, if I am truly one of your chosen, help me in this. I need some powerful magic to disrupt that disappearing ability. Send me the answer to that in one of your visions. While thinking about this, the doors across the moat swing open. Six tribesmen like...

    Earning Passage to Find Halaan On our way to the inn, we see some Kalamarian lawmen heading up the same street we are. They go right to the same inn at which we have been staying. The big northman and I decide to hang back a little to see what develops. They walk up and deploy in a military...

    A Short Time in Zoa After selling the ships, I talk to some clerics at the Watcher’s and Risk’s churches to find out about getting my finger back and gaining this power over undead that Amber has, for myself. They tell me that for the price of the spell and some time in the service of Watcher...

    Sayburr's Kalamar Storyhour

    From Haanex to Zoa Before we left Haanex, the guilt must have gotten to Prissy Britches because she left the books and 100 gold pieces and a note saying that she didn’t deserve the shares from the vaults after all. You never can tell what she is going to do. The note also said something about...
