Alfheim is the home of the light elves. Svartalfheim is the home of the Svartalfar (black elves); aka dokkalfar (dark elves), where they live deep under the ground. The Celtic name for them was drow, btw! ;) The dvergar (dwarves) live in a world called Nidavellir.

I've devoted one chapter to the Vikings' cosmology, where I give an overview of the Nine Worlds (including Alfheim and Svartalfheim, of course), their inhabitants and the pathways between the worlds. I'll get back to these topics in a later book, though. Vikings D20: Beyond Midgard will be a...

An epic Viking campaign, where Ragnarok is starting and the PCs must try to reverse the process. :cool:

This appearantly endless line of "is this fair?" threads and their miscellaneous off-spurts (like this one) is like a bad car crash. It's horrible, but I just can't stop myself from staring. :confused: Also, like a car crash, it makes for a sad sight...

Ninja should be the favored class of ALL races! :p If not that, then I actually think the Viking class could work very well for dwarves. :cool:

The Faust idea was intended more as an encounter than as a campaign theme. If I can somehow find a way to put one or PCs in the position of Faust, that would be even better. For the setting/genre thing I was planning to use either straight-up D&D or a low-magic D&D setting. This campaign will...

First came Libris Mortis, making me want to run an undead-themed horror campaign. Then came Lords of Madness, making me want to run an aberration-themed horror campaign. Then came Heroes of Horror, making me want to run any kind of horror campaign. Then there was this thread, providing some...

If I understand correctly you're using a campaign module suited for your group's average character level and you have 6-7 PCs. Next time, look for module suited for the "party level", as I like to call it. What I do is add together the ECL of all PCs, then divide by 4 (since CRs are set with a...

The odd pose is one thing, but why is it vomiting day-glo plastic??? :confused:

I give clerics (and druids) all PHB spells, plus the one's I allow from Complete Divine. If a player wants a spell from any other book, he must first run it by me. If he asks me at the start of a session (like your guy did), I'll give him a yes or no next session. If I ok the spell, he'll either...

3.x is about as setting neitral as it can possibly be, IMHO. No specific setting is mentioned anywhere. Ok, so the Deities mentioned in the PHB are from Greyhawk, big deal. And Dungeon magazine focuses on Greyhawk, but so what? That doesn't make D&D 3.x a Greyhawk game, IMHO. I suspect though...

This could be the problem right here: You come to an established group as a new member and try to tell them how they should play the game. Or the other players could at least percieve it that way...

Recommended is the key word here. It's only a guideline. There's no rule says you can't make a fine creature with 10 billion HD.

There's a diminutive dragon in Vikings D20... :cool:

I've actually run a campaign that lasted until the PCs were divine rank 5. Longish explanation follows: When I started making my homebrew (just after 3.0 came out), I still hadn't got around to making the pantheon when my first campaign in that world started so we just used the ones from the...

Yup. Check it out, it has some good stuff in it. You can find it here. You might also want to check out Heroes of Horror (WotC). I've only browsed through it, but it looked cool; made me want to run a horror campaign. WHich is why I checked out both this thread and the one I linked to. Maybe...

...or she could be an actual demon. Just a thought that occured to me when I saw this post.

I almost went for the nickname option, but then I saw the shiny button. Ooooo.... :p I have this friend from Scotland who's about 5'2". Myself, I'm from Norway and I'm 6'8". I once made a teasing remark about how short he is, and his immediate, pretending-to-be offended reply was "...said the...

How much writing I find the time to do varies greatly from week to week, but I try to write something every day. There isn't much left now, I'm happy to say. What remains to write is mainly historical background material; like why the Vikings went from being peaceful traders to becoming...

More deities and more domains. More 20 lvl classes. A lot more feats.
