    ZEITGEIST The Ragman

    In my headcanon, Ragman's victims are Ob workers executed for any number of mishaps or, perhaps, "discharged with a bonus at the end of their working term". Their bodies are torn by shadow trolls, and individual body parts, passing under the bridges, sometimes emerge in the material plane of...

    ZEITGEIST Blades in the dark system in ZG world

    We've run a session 1 this afternoon... and I'm very, very impressed. Among 6 people present, I've read about 2/3rds of the rulesbook (stopping at setting-specific details), 2 more players have definitely read it at least partially and 3 more admitted that 300+ page book kinda intimidated them...

    ZEITGEIST Blades in the dark system in ZG world

    My group is trying some new RPG systems, and I'm pitching together a one-shot about Flint criminal underground in the aftermath of adv.5 mess in Blades in the Dark system. Overall level of technical advancement seems pretty close, and Flint fits almost perfectly as a city overrun by ghosts. I...

    ZEITGEIST [Spoilers] Warlocks and Fey Titans

    For adv.6: there are not one but two artifacts of great destruction in this adventure - skull of icy dragon (in possession of ghoul tribe) and dragon eye (used to heat the lava by Gradiax). I think either of those can make a decent sacrifice to Voice of Rot, and bonus points if the party have to...

    ZEITGEIST Resurrection in Zeitgeist Adventure Path

    I warned the party from the start that straight Resurrection is almost impossible in the world. So far there were three times where near-death of a PC occured, which were resolved: -by visually impressive visit of Crissiliri archbishop to Flint to re-bound the spirit of fallen to his body (done...

    ZEITGEIST Discoveries from the playtest of the ZEITGEIST setting book intro adventure

    Is there a way to access this adventure or this is a closed beta-test thing? Re: point 3. What are the rules for firearms in new version? In vanilla 5e longbows already have a range of 150/600, few monsters actually have a non-magical answer for a mounted ranger at a vast open field

    ZEITGEIST Zeitvice: one GM's guide to the best AP

    arkwright, with an immense respect to you and your work on Zeitvice and general contributions to these forums (and even more regarding upcoming ZG setting book)... I find it extremely ironic that this is not the first time I see you debating that your point of view on the campaign (and Nicodemus...

    ZEITGEIST what's on the other side of Ziggurats?

    Frikkin saved. Although I prefer to maintain that the name of the plane is Shembul, as it is made either from the body or the dreams (sources differ) of Thuuga-el-Shembul, the worldshaper worm...

    ZEITGEIST Distant Madness in Zeitgeist 5e

    DMG p 257 has rules for diseases. (Insert "noone actually reads DMG cause 5e is horribly edited" here) Apart from lesser restoration, each disease is unique in how it can be cured with no general mechanic. Two out of three examples allow Con save at the end of each long rest, with each success...

    ZEITGEIST Questions about the Axis Island Ritual-spoilers for end of Zeitgeist

    I love this. Totally stealing the concept, probably not for ZG though. One way I can imagine this is if the moon represents the past of the planet, either recent or more distant. If someone travels there, he would see half-transparent images of people long dead going along their daily life...

    Intro Adventures for Lvl 1-3 (WotBS and Zeitgeist)

    Levels 1-2 are notably deadly for PC in 5e and not very interesting in mechanical terms of character building (IMHO). Both in ZG and in WotBS the party is supposed to be somewhat competent at the start of the campaign (constables on His Majesty's Service and somewhat experienced adventurers...

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist campaign tips

    Still impressive. Just from the main plot: Does Dalton know about his sister Teraklyr? Maybe consider dropping some info about her prior to adventure 6. Does your group enjoy philosophical disputes on the nature of free will and second chances? If so, Ashima-Shimtu seems to be mostly motivated...

    ZEITGEIST Any Zeitgeist 5e online tools?

    Yesterday had my first ZG game in roll20, was pleasantly surprised how well it went, despite going in off the rails of the adventure and therefore not having pre-made maps available. Voice chat refused to work properly, so we used discord; dice rolls lagged horribly, disabling 3D animations only...

    ZEITGEIST Adv5 about to go off the rails

    I'm not sure about PF stats, but in 4e Kasvarina is 4 levels higher than Harkover, IIRC. More importantly, her almost demigodly status as anclave matriarch allows her to break through the "soft cap" of 20th level, which is impossible to basically everyone else before adventure 10.
