Green Ronin's Book of the Righteous: any fans?

[LoneWolf23]

So, how many folks here have a copy of Green Ronin's Book of the Righteous?

It's quite simply my favorite Third Party product of the 3rd Era of D&D; a comprehensive, fully realized pantheon and cosmology ready-to-use for any campaign.

It could also easily be updated to 4th edition, since all the Churches had both Clerical orders as well as Holy Warrior orders, which could easily translate to Clerics and Paladins.

It's perfect. One of the few 3.x books I have kept. And at some point, I am going to do just that. Convert it for my 4e campaign world.

I have it and have long been a fan of it. I even bought a couple of more copies when GR/Paizo put it on sale for $5.00.

Its hands down the best treatment of religions in the 3E era. In a lot of ways the best treatment of religion in any edition of D&D.

A must-have and almost always on people's top five or ten lists for d20 era books.

 

[Vanuslux]

It was definitely an amazing book...I spent a lot of time drooling over it when it was still on the shelves. I just didn't feel like scrapping the pantheon I created for a pre-made one.

Huge fan here. Book of the Righteous and the Midnight Setting are my two favourite third party d20 books. Instant Classics both!

My opinion......

The best 3.x book on Pantheons or Religions. I've stated my thoughts about this in many places, but it was the keystone to my 3.x homebrew for a while.

 

[Celebrim]

Quite simply, the best RPG supplement ever written.

 

[fba827]

to echo the already strong voice -- it is an excellent supplement. In fact, I read through it like a literature book every once in a while even when none of my current games use it.

 

[Shadeydm]

This is an excellent supplement, and I have used it for a homebrew setting and would do so again in a heartbeat.


The details about the individual churches and the divisions that exist within them (like Tinel's for example).

The way they handled paladins was excellent. (each god had thier own type with powers that varied)

The mythology surrounding the fallen angels and the lords of heaven.

One cautionary word, you might not appriciate this book as much if you want your PCs to grow up to be god killers (not my thing but a playstyle that seems to be waxing in popularity and support).
