I wish I'd thought of it too... wow. That would change things. The quick 2 cent suggestion I'd offer to people starting the WLD would be to print out the map of the current (or near future) region, grab a set of 4 highlighters of different colors, go though the section in the text and color...

North of region M/N I didnt put anything, but I did add a big wizard's tower above N1 that I really dont recommend, I regret it now because the PCs are using it as a base now that it's cleared. I should have put the thing to the north where you describe. It would have fit there better. It was...

Regarding death within the dungeon: I allow my players to use the ethereal and astral planes, but the dungeon is solid within them and they are unable to open doors or manipulate objects, so ressurection is allowed in my game. Its accepted that 99.5% of deaths will just be a gold / xp sink...

My group made extensive explorations to the NorthWest of region M. This is how I imagined the area... The Lava river continues on in a roughly straight path for five miles to the NW, though the ledges on either side taper into nothing a mere hundred yards off the map. The cieling is uneven...

Oh, and I'm going to miss GenCon for the second year in a row. :(

The battle with the TWO Marilith Overlords in Region G was my party who went through most of that zone at level ~15. They nearly wiped even though their armor classes and abilities made it so that the Mariliths didnt hit every time. They fought in a four-way intersection and the Mariliths...

The PCs are 16+ level. The Dread Wraiths have been a pain, but most of the early prison inhabitants are locked up. They almost penetrated to N2 the first time in, with only one mass death ward (they will have two or more next time). They were also without their main spellcaster (17th level...

He's a clerical summoner. Summoning is only nerfed in Region N in my version. He is able to summon from the outside and bring something in. Overall its just something he has to deal with. He (and the druid) were able to shine against the demons, the flying wizard and warlock rocked against...

My players may want to skip N altogether as well now that they have been in it for a day. They will be probably be forced to go through it however, due to this debate: - They know that all the undead regenerate daily. - They have trouble with the Dread Wraiths, if not for Death Ward they...

True res cannot res the truly sick or aged, so you can have Evalan tell the party that Cerlebrai is too weak to be True Rezzed. Or you can have the Demons Soul Bind him or something, that is what I did. I have Glabshayy (a rogue type IMC) a scroll of Soul Bind and huge UMD. By the way, the...

I dont have any developments at the moment because the party is going through the sub-dungeon I added. Its kinda funny, the party always knows they have left the regular WLD when the dungeon turns vertical instead of horizontal. The last one was a snake pit with downward levels, this one is a...

You even get the Hold the Line AoO if the target of the charge isnt you. You even get a Hold the Line AoO if the target of the charge is quite a distance behind you as long as the person charging enters your threatened area.

Of course you must mean Region I (Halls of Flesh).

I draw the map out on a white board as they go. I have a large enough board that I can leave it up from game to game. Depending on how large I draw rooms I can get quite a bit of the map on there before I have to erase. Down on the player's table we have a small board marked out to be a 60...

The last three sessions have been a combat filled riot. As you might recall at the end of last month the group had taken the task of killing Baltezzar the "troll" in trade for treasure from the giant queen. In the following session they encountered Baltezzar, who is just across the way, and...

Sidetrack alert! So I was thumbing through old books trying to come up with a name for a new character. He was a lizardman so I thought I'd go through a book called "Dragons"... lo and behold who was the Project Manager? Small world. ;)

Oh boy, I screwed up. I didnt realize that Tyrus ice prison was VISIBLE from the river of lava. I think I can salvage this situation however. I'll change the Ogre Mage's ritual into a two part operation. The first part will blast away the rock and reveal Tyrus' prison as was supposed to be...

BTW in my version Teleport and the like does not work through any of the original construction. New construction and destroyed portions can be teleported through normally. Basically assume that you can only teleport to Line Of Sight unless you are teleporting into some goblin's shack or somesuch.

Okay, its custom Lair time! In region N, room 1 there are a series of tunnels leading to a central area featuring a Devourer. This is where I will place The Tower of Galenus, the Demonologist. The Devourer will remain in his lair below the tower, which is built on top of the 80ft hill of...

Okay here goes: Regarding Books allowed The basics, MM2, MM3, Complete, Divine, Evil, Planar, XPH, pretty much all the WotC stuff except Unearthed Arcana. No Vow of Poverty, no Monkey Grip, no Animate Dead, LA is limited to +2 except in cases where I let the players take over NPCs from the...
