The Heart of Bane looks like it'll continue to be the main macguffin for several months to come, causing all kinds of problems with the city. On top of spreading generalised corruption, it's also attracting followers of evil gods who want it for themselves. Fortunately they're not any kind of unified front, but open fighting in the streets between followers of Bane, Cyric & Iyachtu Xvim is a nuisance for everyone even if they do wind up killing each other off. Despite this danger, they're also instituting a program of austerity to rebalance the city finances after the war, selling off weapons and cutting back the city watch. I guess that leaves saving the day in the hands of adventuring groups rather than the government. (which is as it should be) Hope you're ready to deal with problems ranging in seriousness from evil gnomes to demonic rampages. Let's hope that whatever metaplot developments this year brings, they aren't so overbearing they prevent people from having a decent choice of adventures. Living City Q&A changes hands, putting Cisco Lopez-Fresquet in charge of sageing, while also taking the time to talk about the many other new co-ordinators for various aspects of Raven's Bluff life. All of them have email addresses (mostly @aol.com ones) so you can easily contact them from anywhere in the world. Having their print arm out of commission for a year has really pushed them to exploit new technology in a way that would have happened slower if at all if TSR were still in charge. Let's hope all these people can manage to communicate effectively amongst themselves and have a system to deal with what happens when different ones make contradictory rulings.Does Haste require a system shock roll for aging you? (Yes. Your odds of survival if you use it regularly are very low indeed. Please do not cast it on your enemies in an attempt to exploit this.) What gods can half-elves be specialty priests of? (depends which side of the family raised them) Can dual-class fighters continue to improve their unarmed combat skills? (no)What do you do if a PC does evil things? (Paladins lose their powers straight away. Other ones need to show a repeated pattern of evilness before you remove them from play for good, so put a note on their record for future judges.) If priests of Illmater memorise Call upon Holy Might in a regular slot rather than cast it as a bonus spell, does it require rest? (yes)What gods can I follow as a Crusader or Monk? (considerably more than as a specialty priest, but still not all of them) Can I use the quest spells from Prayers of the Faithful? (no)Can a multi-class fighter/specialty priest wear armor if single-class priests of that god are forbidden? (no)</blockquote>
