    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    I am not privy to the specifics, but I understand there are discussions with and promotions from several different sites forthcoming.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    We're this close to getting a few pieces of original soundtrack music to go with the campaign. After that we'll be reaching for the double-sided poster map stretch goal, which--if you've already seen the map/art on the KS page, you know everyone needs to have. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    So, Green Ronin has just announced their upcoming Modern AGE game. At the end of the article, they've also posted a link to "Requiem, in Bells," my short story from The Tales of The Lost Citadel fiction anthology. It's the first in the anthology (which is also available through the RPG...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    They're honestly more different than similar, to my mind. There's no single Sauron-like villain who won, in LC. It's a single city-setting, for the most part, where not just civilization but magic and (to a lesser extent) nature itself have changed for the worse. The evil outside the walls is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone looking for a dark 5E setting?

    Honestly don't know. The KS is pretty much entirely in the hands of CA Suleiman and Nicole Lindroos. I'm happy to pass along the fact that people are asking about this, and will do so later today, but I can't guarantee the response (or even whether the design team will have all the answers by...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    Thank you! But there are a lot of really cool stretch goals still ahead; I really want this to continue to expand. :) I know a lot of people have been asking for something different in a setting and/or adventures lately. I'm hoping this'll scratch that itch for many of them.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Lost Citadel: a new apocalyptic 5E setting from Green Ronin

    Seven decades ago, there were cities upon cities. Kingdoms and nations; the remains of ancient empire. Cultures at war and cultures at trade. Humans, dwarves, elves, and others. Magic and monsters, rare but real. And so it was for millennia, through two dynamic ages the lorekeepers and scribes...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone looking for a dark 5E setting?

    I'm afraid I really can't talk about how we're addressing the magic level in Lost Citadel yet. I can tell you that it's an issue high on the design team's priority list, but I can't go into how we're dealing with it, how much is new or modified rules, how much is DM advice, and so forth. Sorry...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone looking for a dark 5E setting?

    While "don't go outside" is the general rule--and indeed, exile is one of the harshest, most brutal punishments the law can impose--there are a select few people who do so, occasionally making quick runs to collect resources or the like. So while they're the exception to the rule, there is some...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone looking for a dark 5E setting?

    Okay, so, I can't go into too much detail, in part because I'm not allowed, and in part because I'm not lead developer on the RPG. (I was one of the setting's three primary creators and wrote part of the author's bible, as well as the first story in the fiction anthology, but CA Suleiman's...

    News Digest: D&D Announcements, Starfinder Premiere Event, Diana Jones Award, Asmodee is Alliance Ex

    FWIW, if D&D 5E isn't your thing, the Lost Citadel Kickstarter just revealed the AGE-conversion stretch goal. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Ideas for Dwarven Calvalry

    Giant beetles or lizards would both serve the underground purpose. The other idea--and this is something I did with duergar in my own campaign, but it could work for other kinds of dwarves--is this: Trained war basilisks. The basilisks wear a head-harness that includes thin red crystal lenses...

    Just hit its first stretch goal, though the really cool ones are yet to come. :)

    The New D&D Adventure Is - Tomb of Annihilation!

    Except that, once gain, you're ignoring the character's history. This is what he's been since second edition. This is what he was in Return to the Tomb of Horrors (which had Gary's stamp of approval). This is what he was in the 4E Tomb of Horrors. The designers of 5E aren't ignoring or changing...

    News Digest: D&D Announcements, Starfinder Premiere Event, Diana Jones Award, Asmodee is Alliance Ex

    I just want to add that The Lost Citadel KS--in addition to the RPG itself and the short story anthology--also includes novel-length fiction among its offerings. To say nothing of an array of stretch goals, some of which haven't even been revealed yet, but which include AGE and Pathfinder system...

    Unearthed Arcana June Unearthed Arcana: Druid Shepherd, Fighter Cavalier, and Paladin of Conquest

    Are we really going to add yet another unrelated thread to the heap of stealth discussion casualties? The number of interesting topics that have been derailed to death by pages upon pages of that argument are already uncountable. Please take that conversation elsewhere. I'm begging you, on bent...

    D&D 5E (2014) Anyone looking for a dark 5E setting?

    Well. I was wondering if and when this would hit ENWorld. :) The Lost Citadel was originally created by myself, CA Suleiman, and Jaym Gates. It started with a fiction anthology, which was also Kickstarted. That anthology is available to backers of the new KS for the RPG, and will be available...

    D&D 5E (2014) Name these mephits (and other art for 5e)

    I've always partial to the name "Stopheles" for mephits. :cool:
