Message: <blockquote data-quote="LordArchaon" data-source="post: 4091406" data-attributes="member: 60929">My latest 3.5 campaign was the first set in a home-brew world, and it started so slowly in real life time terms and so fast in leveling up terms, that I became overwhelmed with threat re-adjusting (just as spunky_mutters says) and players became tired of the long times between sessions, also because the incredibly long time it took for me to develop things as traps and NPCs.Even monsters, I always wanted to customize them, because especially in a  home-brew campaign, I don't want my players to discuss at the table things like "Oh, that's a bodak, we must lure him in direct sunlight or cast a daylight spell". I want my monsters to be different.So apart from being excited by the new *functioning* math of 4e, I really CAN'T WAIT June because 4e will not just revamp, but RISE FROM THE DEAD my campaign. And that's because I now see with my eyes what they intended when they said monster and NPC developing was many times faster.Speaking of changes to my campaign, I must say I was playing PoL since much before the developers thought about it, I always had that concept in mind when imagining appealing worlds. So I'll just have to change the cosmology (which was practically absent, because the world is thought as a pseudo-realistic, very ancient earth), that I think I will just re-organize geometrically, namely putting the Elemental Chaos and/or the Nine Hells literally INSIDE the material world, and explaining Feywild and Shadowfell in some pseudo-rational way, linking them to the appearance of gods (actual villains) in the material world and things like that. Races... I see them as easily developable, just like monsters...  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
