Zul-Rygl-hiertp, or Zul the Hidden One While the kobolds worship Zul-Rygl-hiertp as a god, he is not a true god, but a fallen god (if you use Tome of Magic, I would make him a Vestige). Zul the Hidden One was once a god of life and death. Not evil like Yomiran, but neutral, seeking to continue...

The Rainland Moors North east of the Djard mountains lie the Rainland Moors. The moors are named for months of rainfall that turn hundreds of miles of land into marshes, fens, and bogs. During the dry season, or comparatively dry, the Rainland Moors are cool and windy. During the rainy season...

The Kraken, Bane of Tolno Ships In the sea live the Kraken, child. Few, if any still live, no where it came from, or why it is here. Perhaps the Plume warms it? It does not matter. What matters, child, is that the Kraken is no story to scary little children from misbehaving. Ships sink every...

I think separate sessions may be your best bet. You could look into the West Marches for some ideas. More people playing out different areas their characters want to explore could be pretty interesting and a great way to help solve this problem.

I think this is some of the best advice in this situation and it is almost exactly what I would tell you. So, my advice is to follow Gilladian's advice. If that fails and you need to walk away, try Gamers Seeking Gamers here on EN World.

Gunther Hobsla Gunther Hobsla is a simple village smith of great skill in Vrainfall who retired to the town after working in Tolno for many years. He learned forging secrets from the dwarves of Ontokoth of which he will brag should any question his work. But Hobsla is a leader of a group of...

Forest of Uthiriil North of the Farrago River lies the Forest of Uthiriil, where halflings and humans make make their homes. The human majority prefer to boarder the forest, in three large towns: Drakenburg, Rivercrest, and Vrainfall. There are several smaller villages scattered around the...

Magical skulls that function as recorders are awesome! It would be perfect for a necromancer or church of a god of death. The book that pulls you in to witness the events reminds me of a Pensieve from the Harry Potter books, and a little bit of chalk pictures from Mary Poppins. Enchanted...

I don't know any medieval books, but all the really old books I have seen have some crazy titles. I was going along with those, plus the titles can always be condensed into the part before the colon. Also I think the Hogwarts: A History style naming is amusing enough for the players to remember...

Courtly Love: How to Woo the King's Wife and Keep Your Head by Geoffrey Saucer A collection of poetry from various races: human, elven, dwarven, halfling, gnomish, and some surprising ones- gnoll, dragonic, and giant poems too Heraldry: A guide to Nobility- handy for a circumstantial bonus in...

That looks solid, but it seems like it would play slow at the table. Does it? Or did it until your group got used to the math?

The Great Barrows To the southeast of Gunga's Crossing runs a small creek of a tributary for the Farrago. This little creek, if followed for roughly 15 miles, leads to a small dark lake. This lake, if anything can follow its depths, leads to the Undersea, running underground all the way back to...

I wasn't clear enough in my post. I meant d20 systems that handle armor well. I like the way armor works in Savage Worlds and in Burning Wheel, but most of my experience is in 3.5, Pathfinder, and 4e.

I think I prefer armor as AC, just for simplicity. I really want to find a system that handles Armor as DR simply and quickly, but I just can't find it. I've seen some ideas posted in this thread that look like interesting ways to handle this. Does anyone have experience with the Unearthed...

I would give it a chance. I think a key aspect of Tabletop is the interview sections that get worked into the gameplay sections. Having the players and GM tell only the camera why they are doing certain things would be neat. The audience could relate with certain characters or players. Combat...

Yeah, I meant that the level cap would allow the PCs to matter in the fight. The level cap would allow the PCs to remain relevant in the battles while allowing the naval focus to remain. In higher levels with flight capacity, the naval battles will no longer be relevant to the party.
