Fiery Dragon has Sword & Sorcery license?

I should say that I'm not a schooled fan of the setting, but I really liked all the SL products I bought back in 3.0s heyday.

I felt the original SL GAZ was a FAR better product than the later hardback (which suffered from "overdetailitis", like the FR has over the years. The Gaz along with books like Mithril, and Hollowfaust I've found are about perfect for amount of content, and bang for the buck- give me the bones and then let me flesh out the monster :D

In addition, I really liked the few FD products I had- OSM in particular.

This is good news, and I'm looking forward to seeing the S&S products.

With such a limited number of books, I think you should be really careful about getting lost in the details. Especially since so many of those details are already in print, and are (for the most part) unaffected by the mechanical changes of 4th Ed.

Book full of Places - Rehash of the Ghelspad book, but organized and weeded a little bit better.
Book full of Monsters - Creature Collection
Book full of Stuff - Relics and Rituals
Book full of Gods, Groups and NPCs - Divine and the Defeated, Wise and the Wicked, and a double handful of information about the more noticable groups in Ghelspad.

Book full of Martial Splat
Book full of Divine Splat
Book full of Arcane Splat
Book full of Titanic Power Source Splat That I'm Assuming is Going to be Primal

Book full of Encounters and Hooks - Wilderness and Wasteland
Three Books full of an Adventure Story Arc - Hopefully something continent and tier jumping.
 


There definately needs to be a good starting place for characters to adventure in. Mithril and Hollowfaust were great, but many of the other regional sourcebooks made better places to adventure in them act as home bases unless you were running an evil campaign. With 4e's new alignments though, that might not be as much an issue.
 

Ok, there are some monster,spells, and stuff I REALY hope make the cut...but I am away from my books, so I will do my beast to remember them...

The Double wizard that Could split and remerge

The dweller

The Ratmen (all of them)

The Mythral Golem

The fearl creature that the more you killed the stronger it got.

The skin hunter that could wear a skin and gain a power.

And i realy want to see some PC write ups too.

Magic:
Shade sight
Flame bolt
Eclipse
Arcane Parry
Battle Projection
The spell that enchanted an arrow into a lightning bolt
The spell that turned 1 arrow intp a cone AoE

almost every rituel should be ported over

Magic items:
The Oath rings
The Swords of Sharn
Magic Tattos
 

So, what would you like to see? Favorite creatures from the original Creature collection?

Harpies! I like the Scarred Lands harpies so much more than the regular D&D version. Bonus points if the Creature Collection includes a shortened MM-style race writeup. (And write-ups for assaathi, slitherin, etc.)
 

YES! Scarred Lands is Alive!

I'm so incredibly excited and happy to hear that the Scarred Lands setting has been revived. I've been DMing exclusively in this setting for the past few years and have two active v3.5 campaigns in Ghelspad.

There is so much I love about this setting, but I'm going to keep my initial lists short:


Favorite Creatures:

Gorgons- I don't know which is cooler, a high gorgon or a low gorgon? I do know that together, they're the coolest.

Forsaken Elves- I like my elves forsaken, and my elf god dead.


Favorite Characters:

Belsameth- She's so evil-sexy.

Ilkuthsra, the Autumn King - This dude is a complete mystery, but I believe that Ari 'Mouseferatu' Marmell had very cool things in store.


I want to see-

ADVENTURES - Lots and Lots of adventures set in Ghelspad. I'd like to see the world fleshed out through the use of adventure modules instead of sourcebooks. Do adventures with Belsamite assassins, and Hollowfaust necromancers, and Mithril knights, and Calastian battle-mages, and Shadow Walkers of Drendari, and travel to Irontooth Pass, and Mullis Town, and Gest Ganest's Towers, and I think you get the idea.

Vesh Sourcebook - If you do a sourcebook; make it a new location, and make it Vesh. Include a nice map of the nation and a nicer map of Lave. I'd kill for beautiful map of Lave.

In point of fact, I was talking to the White Wolf fiction department, and we were discussing the possibility of me writing a Scarred Lands novel trilogy--which would have heavily involved the Autumn King--but that project died when WW moved out of the D20 market. :(

Maybe there is still an opportunity for this now that FD has the Scarred Lands license. SandSJames?
