[QUOTE="RogueJK, post: 96375, member: 170"] I quoted it in my first post. Page 8 of the 3e Ravenloft Campaign Setting, under "Travel": "The Mists even restrict planar travel; unless the Mists allow it, nothing short of a major artifact or the direct intervention of a deity can provide passage to other planes." ----------------------------------- And perhaps the Morninglord later ascended to godhood. Just because he was once a mortal does in no way suggest that there are no gods in the world. Even if your theory about the Dark Powers granting his worshippers spells is correct, it doesn't mean that this is the case with all deities. I'd like to point out that there is a Forgotten Realms deity, Lathander, who is called "The Morninglord." His symbol is the same as the one described in the Ravenloft book. Perhaps a Faerunian Cleric of Lathander was pulled into Ravenlot, where he began converting others based on the mistaken belief that Lathander had shown himself in the form of the elf. Or maybe, when the people began worshipping 'The Morninglord", the true Morninglord heard their prayers and granted them power from him. A deity other than the ones worshipped by the denizens of Ravenloft could also affect things inside Ravenloft. Don't forget that clerics of other gods who enter Ravenloft still get their spells and abilities. This shows that there is, at least, a little bit of a god's power that is getting through. [/QUOTE]
