[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 4424594, member: 20323"] Thank you :) Not to resurrect an old thread, but I did some brainstorming about Al-Qadim and advancing the storyline 30 years or so for 4e. [SIZE="4"][COLOR="DarkOrange"][b]Al-Qadim 4e[/b][/COLOR][/SIZE] * The Grand Caliph is an old man, having secured peace throughout his demesnes.
