    ZEITGEIST Post-Zeitgeist Setting and Adventures Discussion (Spoilers!)

    It sounds unreasonable to address this future setting book to a dozen or so DMs who have completed the AP in full. Or even to a hundred (two hundred?) people who played enough to understand the scale of the AP finale and corresponding philosophical problems. It's perfectly understandable why...

    ZEITGEIST Rakshasas

    I certainly meant no offence to RangerWickett, there is an upper limit to what amount of material you can cram into single campaign. I know nothing of Steven Universe but I'm definitely interested in your plot, that's why I created this thread. My own Stanfield happens to be a former lead of...

    ZEITGEIST Rakshasas

    SPOILERS GALORE Among many story points of Zeitgeist campaign, there was a single one that never sat with me right - Stanfield's transformation to invulnerable rakshasa in the finale of the Adventure 9. It's coming out of nowhere, except for a single legend in Player's Guide (once again...

    ZEITGEIST [Spoilers] Fey Sickness

    When I first read that part in the adventure, I was charmed by the thought that planar magic doesn't have to be bound by puny causuality rules. Yes, several completely separate events (erosion of the stone tree, Ob's experiments with ziggurat of Avilona and weakening of living Avilona the Eagle)...

    ZEITGEIST [Zeitgeist] Bonds of Forced Faith tonight

    Good luck, waiting for results. In my run, I made Stanfield an NPC (mostly due to his uncertain status in main campaign - the party is so sure of his betrayal since adventure 1 that I'm inclined to do otherwise, somehow) and gave Lee character sheet to a party member who's obsessed with dragons...

    ZEITGEIST Best actual play for Zeitgeist?

    There's video records of Spiteski's games on youtube and twitch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYf0H8FYwq0&list=PLmY8RUC93Th3IOY3hppl79x5iAENdju7n

    ZEITGEIST the magic of mass faith

    Alright, "fandom is magic" is now a title for my DM-only folder of ZG materials.

    ZEITGEIST the magic of mass faith

    I really like it. On one hand, as Moreton says, most of the things you listed could be explained by "that's just standard Fantasy". On the other - no "standard Fantasy" can actually explain why these rules and rituals work. This also gives both demon race and Gidim a reason to be interested in...

    ZEITGEIST Muzzle-loading property

    Judging from 4e version, the intended design is to shoot every second round

    ZEITGEIST List of Pop Culture References in Zeitgeist

    It's official, we're literally living in Lanjyr. Everything is multiverse, everything is connected.

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    77. Convincing their DM that a random legend they once heard about ruins in the jungle is totally connected to the quest at hand. That sounded much better than the thing I had in mind. Did anyone end up using The Perpetual City in the jungles of Elfaivar in any way or form? I get "Made in...

    ZEITGEIST My party's Zeitgeist characters

    I also started almost 5 years ago, had 1.5 years hiatus and we're in the middle of adventure 8. You're kinda inspiring me to finally start my own regular journal!

    ZEITGEIST Is this 5E feat for Technologist reasonable?

    My knowledge of 5e is limited to one-shots and reading through playtests and PHB, so take this with a grain of salt. Feats in 5e are very rigidly defined in their value, they must have an equal value to ability score improvement, e.g. +1 modifier to a specific field of tasks. If you look through...

    ZEITGEIST Adventure 12 Question [Spoilers, natch]

    IIRC there are very limited ways of teleporting into uknown location, but plenty of ways to teleport to a known magic circle. As Lanjyr is (presumably) no longer cut from the multiverse, there should be no problems in casting a reverse portal spell and just popping back to Flint... right, guys...

    ZEITGEIST Saxby big bad adv. 5

    For me that would be difficult from the point of motivation, both for Margaret and for Ob. Saxby is "slightly corrupt cop boss" character, who's covering some shady stuff in hope of promotion. Among Cauldron Hill personnel only Leone Quital seems to doubt that Born is being created as secret...

    ZEITGEIST Quittal's quarters in Adv 5

    My party visited the Cauldron Hill a total of four times over three adventures (blowing it up twice in the process), so I had to invent some benefits of doing this to give them. Disregarding all the stuff that I added to the campaign myself, they spoke to memory-blanked Kasvarina long before the...

    ZEITGEIST Trying To Understand Eladrin and Elves in this Setting

    Elves and eladrin are two completely different races with maybe common anscestry. In case of ZG specifically, read the Player's Guide section about Risur, I believe that is the only canonical description of elven culture and nation in Lanjyr. In short, primitive elves lived in Risur before...

    ZEITGEIST Printing Error in PDF for Act II, Schism: Missing Player Handout Train Schedule for Pathfinder

    ZEITGEIST [ZEITGEIST] We now return you to your regularly scheduled Srasama's Fall

    This is a pretty minor question, which was actually hanging at the back of my head for years. As my party is finally starting their Around-The-Lanjyr tour of Kasvarina's Not Proudest Moments, I have to finally decide whether it's just a overlooked joke or a part of canon in my campaign. So...

    ZEITGEIST list of monarchs of Risur?

    To be exact, Queen Zidi Wheatling defeated Granny Allswell in the year 218 A.O.V., and Queen Hibiscus of the Argent Rampant provoked the First Yerasol War around 350 A.O.V. I believe, no other canonical names are mentioned. Edit: Catherine Romana is mentioned to be a descendant of one of the...
