[MEG] The Deep Map: Wow!!

[Aeolius]

Kinda gives a whole new meaning to Wall of Ice, don't it?

I've added various spells which create walls of bubbles or ink, and even an incorporeal undead cloud of blood known as "chum", but an exploding sea critter brings to mind images of that "Chilean Sea Blob" which turned out to be the flesh of a decomposing whale.

uuuhhhh... are you guys high?! I thought this thread was about a map or something.

Sorry if I sound offensive, I currently HAVE the bends.

Seriously, cool map. And good luck with all the deep sea adventuring!

This thread de-railed like a massive train crash! Thanks about the map. It makes up the end papers of THE DEEP which has lauched this in-depth study of the bends!

You could call it derailing, or you could call it the natural flow of topicality. I prefer the latter.

I've been running Dark Sun now for more years than I care to count (intersped with a smattering of other short lasting campaigns). I had been on the lookout now for a new secondary campaign that turns my Dark Sun players on their heads a bit, and the thought of an undersea setting may very well fit the bill quite nicely. After more than 10 years of players dying of thirst left and right, it would be great to see them finally get all the water they ever wished for and then some.

I'll certainly give the book a look. My LGS gets in a few copies of most new releases and they almost always end up in my collection. Can't wait to add this one as well. Hope it meets the expectations.

...some interesting info on dolphins and whales getting the bends...

Another topical link about whales getting the bends, purportedly because of navy sonar:

And this coming from someone with a PINK slaad icon?

I do have an aquatic slaad vartiety in my undersea game...



...tuna slaad.

No, we're not high...

Sincerest apologies for any "derailment". The problem has been fixed. All of my derailing posts have been moved here: http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=65917

Paintshop pro 7 had something like contours, or chrome or whatever. I don't know where it is in eight but with the time I could nock up those kinds of mountains.
