What Caught Our Eye?

The Palace of Pain’s Pleasures (Fantasy Grounds) By: Beatriz T. Dias, Travis Legge, Shaun Sides

A galvanice weird has torn apart an Izzet laboratory in the Blistercoils. The weird’s path of destruction leads to Tin Street where the weird was spotted being subdued and taken aboard the notorious Palace of Pain’s Pleasures, a mobile Cult of Rakdos performance stage. To return the weird to its proper owner and discover the mystery behind its bizarre behavior, the party must brave The Palace of Pain’s Pleasures!

The Guardian of Goldhammer’s Vault By: Christopher J Foster

The elderly wizard, Gilda Goldhammer, has passed away and among her possessions is a page titled "The Vault" with a set of Teleportation Circle sigils and the note "Mind the Guardian". The circle leads to a deadly dungeon full of traps and puzzles; will the party be able to survive it?

Quick Take: The Enchanted

By R.G. Wood; Art By Hannah Tervo; A Grisly Eye Games Monograph

Are you a fan of the fey? Have you been looking for new backgrounds? Are you interested in exploring low-fantasy characters? Well R.G. Wood gives us all three in The Enchanted. This compact monograph offers some interesting options to the DM and players. Note: This product was provided to EN World for review.

The Enchanted starts off talking about some options for a low-fantasy campaign. I thought this was interesting as it limits races, classes, and feats available to the characters. After talking low-fantasy, the authors present information on making unique backgrounds. They provide two examples, Feytouched and Fey Exile, and use the Far Traveler as an example of how to turn a current background into a unique one. The monograph wraps everything up with some hints at some future monographs from Grisly Eye Games.

A special shout out to the art, which I thought was evocative and on point.

Until next time!

I absolutely love that fans and Adepts are expanding the Campaign Setting options for FR. Most of this information is either a reprint or summary of existing articles, many of which are very obscure, but at that point its like FR Historiography and I appreciate all the hard work.

For example, there is an awesome book on Cormyr by Matthew Lee Myers, an overview of the Moonshae Isles by Baldman Games, The Border Kingdoms by Gamehole Con and Ed Greenwood (as far as I can tell this is likely just a reprint of some 3rd Edition era articles by Greenwood to a defunct WoTC blog).

Now M. T. Black taking a crack at Calimshan? Sign me up.

Got the new Blood Hunter in a charity bundle. But that Enchanted supplement one looks nice. Thanks!

In January I released a 5E D&D conversion of the original Zenopus Dungeon, from the 1977 "Holmes" Basic rulebook. 18-pages, $1.99. It was #6 under $5 at one point, and is a Silver best seller so far.

Where do I send a copy to EnWorld for a review?

The Ruined Tower of Zenopus (DMs Guild link)

Read more about it here on my blog, the Zenopus Archives.
