Big Trouble in Little Oaktown True20 Ghost: ? Zombie Minion Bugbear: ?

Ok, the Muses are evil. Alternatively I now know torture techniques.

With Moorcock they would come back in though.

True20 Freeport: The Lost Island True20 Undead: As the rulers grew desperate and their armies depleted, they instructed their magicians to call upon preternatural forces for help. As a result, scorching magics added to the devastation. Amidst this chaos, new gods touched the minds of futilely...

James Spader, Kurt Russell, Ancient Egypt, and Sci-Fi. I liked it. :) The movie didn't have any non-English letters. In the title that is.

Its not binary, your credit score does go down though. :)

True20 Fantasy Paths True20 Undead: ?

I do not read 2e tieflings the same way. PC ones were probably good or neutral, but that was the same for any race (including drow) in 2e which discouraged evil PCs entirely. 2e drow PCs could be any alignment, 2e tieflings are the ones who cannot be LG as PCs. The Planescape Monstrous...

True20 Expert's Handbook True20 Undead: ? Sightless Creature: ? Vampire: ?

I see it completely the other way. It is completely in world whether a ward placed on a church from a hallow spell that keeps out all fey keeps out an individual goblin or not. Even casting hallow the caster must affirmatively choose the type for the effect. I completely expect casters with the...

I don't own the 2024 MM or anything written by WotC after it, but my understanding is that while 2024 MM humanoid NPC stat blocks are written to be explicitly of any alignment and non humanoid type monster stat blocks have default alignments specified in the MM entry the difference between...

There is always the classic Horror on the Orient Express. For a shorter D&D one along a similar theme there is the Eberron Nightmare on the Mournland Express. Hell Train is a short Dungeon Crawl Classics adventure for Weird Frontiers. I am sure there are a bunch of Deadlands ones as well...

True20 Adept's Handbook True20 Undead, Undead Creature: Necromancy began as a form of divination seeking to communicate with the spirits of the deceased. Since its inception, this supernatural tradition has been influenced by the darker arts such as diabolism, and it has been expanded to include...

True20 Bestiary True20 Undead, Undead Creature: Undead are once-living creatures animated by spiritual or supernatural forces, such as the Imbue Unlife power. An undead creature was once living but has magically transcended death as a walking corpse or ghostly spirit. Unfortunately they...

I did get the (BECMI) Companion set to go along with my B/X Basic and Expert sets so the one that stood out for me is the thief skill advancement being reduced in BECMI to stretch it out over more levels instead of the expected new thief abilities that B/X Expert hinted would come for higher...

I was thinking of whether it carried forward in the later basic line books. From the RC it looks like it was just Mentzer Basic but I don't have the other later basic starter sets either to check, just the RC PDF.

Witcher RPG bundle at Humble Bundle. The six book game line for $15.

Thanks, Moldvay B/X Basic was what I started D&D with and I only got a Mentzer basic boxed set decades later when a friend was downsizing their collection prior to a move, so I am not familiar with its specific unique bits other than the little bits I have flipped through or looked up...

Chronicle Solipstry Beithir: ? Chatterjaws, Chatterbones: Most often, they wait months or years before returning, but I’ve heard cases where they didn’t last the night. While anyone can become a Chatterbones, it seems that murder victims come back most often. Ghost, Spirit: Bodies fade quickly...
