Hey Gary, I think you missed my question so I thought I'd repost it :) Hope you had a good time at the LGGC, too. Gray Mouser

Hey Gary, here's a question for you :) We know that Mordenkainen was Bigby's mentor; under who did Mordenkainen fulfill his wizardly apprenticeship? Gray Mouser

I started playing Wizardry shortly after I started playing D&D (the former being in probably early 1982 while the later was in 1981). I loved that game and it was an adequate substitute when a D&D game was unavailable. I should really check out ebay for a copy sometime :) Gray Mouser

I'm surprised that the PC's didn't take some comfort in the fact that their new "masters" were so appreciative. Surely that must count for something! :lol: Sheesh, what a bunch of ingrates! First they complain about losing their magic items, then they have the audacity to want to leave the...

Hey, Gary, thanks for the additional info about your players "escapades" in the Abyss. If anything was learned I would assume it was not to be too helpful to demons (even unintentionally!) as their idea of a "reward" doesn't seem to be so great. Especially when dealing with the Demon Queen of...

:confused: Not powerful enough? Gads, man. If Mordenkainen, Bigby, etc. weren't strong enough to survive an extra planar trip who is? Heh, I didn't know Robilar got way laid by Zugtmoy. She's tricky, eh? Did Robilar, Erac and Ailerach encounter any figures of note there (besides Z. and...

Hey Gary, I was wondering how common extra-planar advantures were/are in your Greyhawk campaign. Besides various demi-planes (such as in Isle of the Ape) did you ever send any PC's to any of the inner or outer planes outlined in the PHB? What about Mordenkainen and crew, did they ever adventure...

Ah, thanks. I knew I had seen something explaining that somewhere. Now I'll have to see if I have issue 75 lurking about anywhere. Hmm, I'm not a huge Ed Greenwood fan, but this sounds interesting. My campaign involves a conflict between followers of Dispater and a religious order the PC...

There are swords in D&D that glow blue in the presence of orcs? Is that a 3.x edition thing, because AFAIK there weren't any such weapons in previous editions? Magic swords (and daggers) in 1e shed light when held if you playted BtB but none that I am aware of gave off a blue glow in the...

Heh, exactly! And please post the issue number so I can see if I can locate a copy of the Dragon in question on ebay or the local Halfprice Books! Gray Mouser

Thanks, Gary, that's pretty much what I figured. When I went back and reread the MM II I simply couldn't find any actual explanation of the asterisk although I could've sworn seeing that explained somewhere before. Gray Mouser

That's what I thought, too. Upon closer inspection, however, I was unable to see any reference to such in the text. Hopefully Gary can clear this up for me. Gray Mouser

Devils Question Colonel, I was just reading the Devils entry in the MM II and there is a section entitled "The Hierarchy of the Planes of Hell," in which you list "the dukes of hell as well as some of their foremost henchmen." The entry consists of three lists; the name of the dukes, the name...

Heh, and both pieces did a great job of inspiring you, Colonel! "The House in the Tree" made me want to put something similar in my campaign (now I just need some way to fit it in) and "The Five Dragon Bowl" is second only to "Twistbuck's Game" as far as Gord stories go (IMHO). Gray Mouser

Greetings Colonel. I hope the Christmas season finds you well. I have a question on how you envision the differences in behavior of demons and devils, specifically regarding the behavior of major types of these creatures staging forays into the Prime Material plane. Seeing as how demons are...

Sheesh, how did I miss so many pages of replies? Darn e-mail notifications! Sounds like quite the undertaking, Colonel. Also sounds like the CZ setting is developing much like I always hope Greyhawk would have. I'll have to look into the upcoming products. Well then let's hope that Yrag...

So where did the underwater adventures take place, Gary? I read a write up some time ago of an excursion to Castle Greyhawk where the party encountered a subterranean lake (and were pursued by a pteradon, IIRC). Was this the main underwater environ or were there others? Anyone ever make it to...

Hey Gary, hope this post finds you doing well. I have a question that was formulated partly due to the recent discussion regarding the location of Yggsburgh and Greyhawkian geography. I was just wondering if you've ever run any adventures in your campaign that took place in or around the Nyr...

Hmm,, but that would put it right near.... Hey, Colonel, a question for you regarding your recall of Greyhawkian geography! How good is your recall of the details of Oerth (the Flanaess but also of other portions)? I know it's been a long time since you were involved with the official setting...

Hmm, any suggestions where Yggsburgh might fit best on Oerth, Colonel? ;) Gray Mouser
