[QUOTE="Skarp Hedin, post: 210497, member: 1540"] Well, I'll post here again although RogueJK beat me to about everything I was a-gonna say.. but since I first said anything about trolling, I should interject. Glamdring, RogueJK is entirely right. I just re-read your first post, and no matter how many times I read it, the underlying text remains the same: "Run FR by the novels or you're a bad DM." Now, there's nothing wrong with you and your players having a grand ol' time running FR by the novels, but I don't enjoy the novels, and still run FR (or rather, I was running FR up until about a month ago). Since you want to publish your adventures, you're doing a smart move, to keep consistency. I don't want to publish adventures that I run, I don't give a crap about internal FR consistency. Nor do my players, far as I can tell. Some of them have read some FR novels, and I can't remember them ever pointing out that I "made a mistake" Also, I find -great- irony here: Glamdring: I've been inconsistent with the novels. My players haven't noticed, and I haven't noticed. Therefore, you have called me an idiot. In summation: RogueJK is entirely right, and your style is perfectly valid. So is everyone else's style. The FR authors deserve no intrinsic "honor" by having everyone maintain their work as scripture within a D&D campaign, but that is a fine choice so long as everyone involved in the campaign likes it. You come off as overly judgemental, but that's probably just a function of the text-based medium here. (and I still think you might be trolling, heh) [/QUOTE]
