We haven’t seen the final version of the Hunter’s Mark spell. I’m holding hope that it has scaling like the damaging cantrips use. 5 ranger levels two dice, 11 ranger levels three dice. It also could help incentivize sticking with the class and minimize multiclass dips. So that capstone changes...

Seems partially incomplete. Such as not mentioning the 14th level Celestial class feature now being able to affect allies too.

Lore hounds might find it interesting to read Gary’s intentions regarding the EEG vs [shall not be named]. Oerth Journal 12 publishes Gary’s responses to questions that were on the old GreyTalk email list. Also, EEG was supposed to have its own name. https://greyhawkonline.com/OerthJournal/

Maybe some clumsy neologism based off monastery?

I’ve been playing the UA7 celestial warlock and mostly very pleased. (The jump invocation has been so fun). We had already house ruled Summon Celestial to the patron list so that was sweet to see! I kinda hope attention could be added to allowing the Healer origin feat to work with the Healing...

I recall that Len Lakofka was given authorship of much of the Suel pantheon. There might have been disputes about what Len wrote about them. I’m not sure if Len actually created any of the Suel gods though. I liked that he likely was the inspiration for Lendor.

On page 22 of the ‘83 glossography there is a “Special Weather Phenomenon” that include a deity and servants, and another for “Two or more battling deities” Need more god battles causing weather!

Are you familiar with the scale of the Blackmoor region maps from the DA series? It’s 350 miles or so from Blackmoor to Archlis on the opposite side of the peninsula.

If you’re looking for problems you’re going to try to force Dave’s Blackmoor into that section of the Flanaess you have to T.A.R.D.I.S. the land and warp the size of Dave’s Blackmoor into the tiny amount of room the Flanaess allows. You have a lot of contorting the likes of a circus performer...

Here is Blackmoor from the 4-panel LG map published in Dragon Magazine. The “ruins” are of Blackmoor Town. You can bet a Comeback Inn is somewhere around to dimension hop to Dave’s iteration of Blackmoor though.

I think downplaying the pantheon is very doable. I’ve seen some run Greyhawk with their handpicked faves from the old Deities and Demigods. On the whole, I can see the gonzo-ness especially when viewed as if it were a cohesive single. However, when viewing the different cultural origins as if...

My recollection from, I think the City of Greyhawk boxed set, the Selintan’s connection to Nyr Dyv’s Midbay is artificial. Something like a gnome clan was hired to excavate a barge link through the Cairn Hills so that Greyhawk could prosper as a participant on the great continental river barge...

I’m a bit of an obsessive for lore that might need to appear in my maps. 🤓 I hate publishing my hobby maps and it has an error.

None I know. I have fairly intimate knowledge of Ivid the Undying and it is not present at all. It appears newly made up. Though in light have preferred a derivation of the Flan kingdom that was conquered, like Ahlissa.

Okay, here’s another impressive little detail. The city of Roland along the coast of the Gull Cliffs, as described in Ivid is in the Bay of Gates, a small well-protected freak harbor that nestles into the hills. The included map from the Dragon Magazine article on the Sea Barons placed a large...

I’m convinced Mike either had scoured materials, is a Greyhawk superfan, or had access to a Greyhawk guru when mapping this because little deep derails are all over. Like placing the Isle of Cursed Souls from the unpublished Ivid the Undying, just off Aerdiaak (North Province), the small isles...

It was rather like a whipsaw trying to explain the defeats to the Horned Society plus bandits, some never described total victory over the HS+bandits, then followed nearly immediately by total the defeated to Iuz. We never tried to explain how Walworth Isle was lost because we know FtA never...

It was truly a time of my life being able to guide some of the stories! I have fond memories of large interactives to free Lord Torkeep’s lands (a pre-made PC from Isle of the Ape), assault and free Admundfort, establish teleportation circles between Ringland and Critwall. Then when WotC told us...

Yah you could say removing “See of…” from Medegia was a change, separating from a very real world faith that uses it. Caverns of Tsojcanth is up in the Yatils.
