[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9505046, member: 54629"] The 2014 DMG had The Prancing Pony as an Easter Egg in the random tavern name generator, but they appear to have swapped out a bunch of the names for the 2024 version, including that one. The new table has The Dancing Hut, which I suppose is a reference to Baba Yaga. That was in the 2014 DMG as well. They seem to have expanded on that earlier entry a little bit. Here's the 2014 version: [I]"One of the few actual islands on the plane is the [B]Isle of Dread[/B]. The island is connected to the Material Plane by means of a regular storm that sweeps over the island. Travelers who know the strange tides and currents of the plane can travel between worlds freely, but the storms also wreck ships from the Material Plane on the island’s shore."[/I] And here's the full 2024 version: "[I]One of the few islands on the plane is the Isle of Dread, which is connected to the Material Plane by means of a storm that regularly sweeps over the island. Ships from different worlds of the Material Plane end up wrecked on the rocks and reefs around the island, and settlements across the island are populated by the descendants of sailors who never found a way home. Theoretically, travelers who understand the workings of the storm could use it to travel to a desired Material Plane world."[/I] [/QUOTE]
