That's Bart Carroll. You can tell by the red shirt.
Yes, and we have assigned Bart a new task, make the shadow puppy PP show up in Dragon. We'll be sure to point out any and all mechanical tweaks needed, we promise.

Ahh. We meet at last Mr Carroll... [steeples fingers]

Wait. "We"? Don't tell me you're a staffer too (or do you mean the collective ENworld "we")?

The collective Enworld we, yes. Of course if someone is offering me a job... lol.
Really though, any and all expertise needed to polish up that PP is certainly present here. There were several promising suggestions upthread. Personally I didn't see much wrong with it at all. The main issue really seemed to be that the hound's main benefit was a tad bit situational. With the right fighter build for instance the thing can be quite effective as-is, you'd just want to optimize around it a whole lot (to punish prone enemies basically). I think it could use being a decent amount broader in applicability. Beyond that the fluff was pretty sweet and we can deal with any other issues easily enough.

Just FYI, the original Black Hound PP was a bit different from what was seen in the preview.
Y'know, penanggalans sparkle. At least, so says Wikipedia. Their dangling, bloody, engorged entrails "twinkle like fireflies."

See... this is why we aren't getting Ravenloft 4e. Vampires of the Mists are not, I repeat *NOT* allowed to sparkle.

Give them the Twilight work-over and they will. Might even start a buying frenzy with teenaged girls.

I should have chosen my words better; let me try again.
"This is why we should not get Ravenloft 4e; Sparkling vampires sell books, and sparkling vampires would completely ruin* Ravenloft."
* Especially if Mearls gets his hands on it!!!

I haven't heard anything about this being a hardcover instead of a boxed set.
Source?
While I was looking forward to another boxed set, I'm glad it will still include the tokens. If it didn't, then I'd be a little annoyed since the tokens are one of the best features of the original MV.Oh, wow! Since it includes tokens I automatically assumed it was going to be a box. Everything's cool then - thanks for clearing this up
Besides, I can just put the new tokens into my essentials MV box.

I would also like to know the source of the hardcover rumor also. I ahve seen nothing that supports it.
Edit: Looking at WOTC's product catalog it says a 128 page book, which is odd. The MV is 318 pages and MM3 was 220, so by either standard it is pretty slim. Not sure what this means
