    Free RPG day Ebberon Black Ooze escape

    Yup. But the tactics I suggested were completely different, and unfortunately it really changes the threat presented by the encounter. Spoilers follower.

    Keith Baker Report: Hampshire, UK

    I have been having a great time so far! My main problem is that I just don't have the time to visit everyone who's offered hospitality - I'm only going to make it to about half the countries on my list in this first European tour. Thanks again, Charles, and to everyone who's played with me so...

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    (Popping in from a hotspot at UK Games Expo...) Correct. Mechanically, there are no restrictions. But both the EPG and ECG note that the marks are tied to specific races and families. The ECG highlights that a PC who develops an out of house mark might be the first member of his race in history...

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    This is indeed the case, and is in fact stated in the second sentence of the Changeling racial entry in the EPG. Again, don't jump to major conclusions from a cursory overview. ;) Likewise, regarding dragonmarks, there's some important supporting text that won't come out with just a quick scan...

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    Bear in mind that in this (and many of the other reveals here) you are seeing a vague, brief overview of a considerably deeper story - something which plays out in even more detail in the Eberron Campaign Guide, with Jack99 doesn't have yet (as far as I know!). Personally I'm quite pleased with...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Keith at Conventions Hey everyone! I'm going to be at two conventions over the course of the next two weeks - Kubla Con in the San Francisco bay area from May 22-25th, and A-Kon in Dallas from May 28th-31st. I don't yet know my complete schedule for these events, especially for A-Kon, and I'm...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Indeed I did... and wow, do I look tired. Not surprising, because I WAS tired (I need to factor in more time for sleep in my next loop), but I'm almost embarassed by the picture. ;) I'm glad you had a good time, DB - I had a blast, and I'll certainly look you folks up next time I'm in the area...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Probably not - I've already got more countries on my list than I'm going to have time to visit, and I'm planning to be on the continent in July. But I appreciate the invitation!

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    I'm finally on the road - I've been through Salt Lake City, Boise, Portland, and currently I'm in Seattle. I'll have a proper blog with pictures up soon, but as it turns out, it's been a busy month. If you're in Seattle, I'm going to be at Blue Highway Games tomorrow (Sunday May 10th) from...

    Court of Stars: The Prince of Frost

    Actually, in this case your guess is as good as mine. I originally designed the Prince as a 29th level monster. During the development phase, he was boosted to a 31st level monster, but his hit points actually went down. Given that they changed from what I wrote, I'm certain that it was an...

    Court of Stars: The Prince of Frost

    I honestly don't know. Sorry!

    Court of Stars: The Prince of Frost

    Good overview. I'd say that there are OFTEN rivalries between individuals; the fey lords enjoy their intrigues. But these typically ARE intrigues, not wars. They fight the fomorians... they scheme against one another.

    Court of Stars: The Prince of Frost

    This is actually an issue with art placement. I assume you're complaining about the image on page 57, next to the Prince's stat block. The thing about this is that it's not actually an image of the Prince (skin color's wrong, among other things). It's a picture of Azara Iceborn (with her...

    Will 4E Eberron be as bad as FR?

    I don't have time to address every point that's been raised in conjunction with me, but I'll touch on a few. 1. I do like 4E. I think it's a good match for Eberron in a number of ways. The integration of action points into the core rules is one example of this. The fact that PCs and NPCs are...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    At this point, probably the beginning of April. I meant to be traveling as of the start of March, but various life issues and work deadlines (finishing my next novel, the Eberron adventure for Free RPG Day, and various other things) has drawn my plans to a halt. However, I am very much committed...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    I don't know yet. I'm still working on my timetable, and at the moment I have to get caught up on my work before I can hit the road. Given the number of places to visit, I mean it when I say I'll be traveling for a year; at the moment, I may not get to Canada until early 2010. It certainly won't...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Unfortunately, May - August is pretty booked up. Here's what I've got at the moment: May 22-25: Kubla Con in Burlingame, California May 29-31: A-Kon in Houston, Texas June 5-7: UK Games Expo in Birmingham, England (... at which point I'll be in Europe until...) August 13-16: Gen Con Indy in...

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Sometime in June; I'm still working out the precise dates.

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    Madison. But I'd certainly love to make a stop in Milwaukee, if the invite's still open!

    Keith Baker: Have Dice, Will Travel

    I'm sure we can work something out. Drop me an email so I've got your address, and I'll let you know when I'm going to be in the area.
