Let me explain: I don't exclude that it is possible to write excellent stories the way you are trying to do. I simply say that you must be very clever not to slip away from coherency. The very important thing to do is to find a motivation strong enough to drive 4 semi-gods away from girls and drugs.

It is an hard thing to do because Hi lev pc needs Hi lev motivations. Why bother with problems that 10 mid level characters can handle? What you are trying to do has an understandable aesthetic, but crushes against all the rules of narration and, to be honest, it is not so realistic so...

Thank you Sir. Sad about 3rd edition... but it would be wonderful if GK, who is a giant of FR, could produce an hardcover module full of lore in the DM's Guild. Also a 5th ed. Illefarn Anew would be wonderful. I miss a lot the FR lore modules from 3rd edition. I collect them all and what I...

Hi sir. Can you give me some more info about this? Thank you

We will discover that Gandalf is a Lich with perpetual illusion around him and the staff is his philactery!

It depends on what kind of "magic" you are talking about. Yes Gandalf has no fireballs but can fight with his sword against a Balrog and even impose to him to not pass. He can evoke and direct a lightining and evoke the king of eagles ti rescue him. It's magic is in his force of will and in the...

Maybe elves were already going away from ME, but this is not in contradiction with the "loss in victory" fact.

It's an interesting way of seeing it.

Mmmmh I don't know. It is not stated in the book and even if nothing suggest something different, the price Arda pays is the desappearance of the Grace: Elves gone definitely to the West, Gandalf say goodbye and Frodo and the Hobbits loose their innocence forever. It's a metaphor of the...

You CAN'T defeat Sauron because Sauron is the personification of lust for power and greed. It make no sense to try. But you can stand still against this force keeping Arda from falling into darkness. Definitely not the american cliche of solving the problem going to the root and stop it with two...

Unfortunately seeing the books doesn't save money for me. I must buy everything for a spell that a bad mage cast on me when I was teenager

Amazon.it sells them at a lower price for the english versions i.e. approx 39 euros for DtA without shipping rates (prime). Maybe because english versions doesn't have a big appeal to italians.

Average price for english DND in Italy is 50 euros, exactly the same as Italian version

Excuse me you're right: help with first hand info about Italian situation. I live in florence.

If you want I can help giving you some info.

This is in my line. Remember that in Poland Sapkowski is some sort of mass phenomena. Something like Tolkien was in terms of revamping a national corpus of mythology. To refuse influences from something non polish and recent like RPGs is understandable. And also consider that european culture...

My best impression is that Sapkowski is trying not to be confused or aligned with the RPG world because he consider it a subculture that might interfere with his desire to belong to High Literacy. He doesn't want to be a niche Writer and maybe also Fantasy Writer is too narrow for his self...

For me now it is clear that Sapkowski, for some reason I don't know, is not completely clear about RPGs and his relationship with the world of RPlaying... It seems to me that he is ashamed to admit something... Isn't it? Is it just my imagination or some translation bias from the english...

Thank you very much, you gave me some points to let the work start!

Frankly speaking, it's been 40 years that cinema have complex timeline with flash back and forward. For me it is a point of finesse and not a defect.
