Nentir Vale/World of Nerath Information/Links?

[AslanC]

Yes, as was the Invoked Devastation. I believe they added both to the 4e World though, along with many other bits of Greyhawk lore.

In that case "meh" I might use those ideas, I might not. Ultimately I start with the Nentir Valley entry in the DMG and build from there

 

[thanson02]

The greater world got 8 expansions called Nerathi Legends in Dragon Magazine nos;

#398 (Sarthel, City of Silver)
#399 (The Seven Kings of Karkoth)
#400 (The Iron Wolf Barbarians)
#401 (Merindaelion, Barony of the Emerald Blade)
#402 (Adretia, the Citadel of Iron’s Grasp)
#403 (Realm of the Gorgon King)
#405 (The Knights of Rethmil)
#406 (Rangers of Cernall)

...and lord knows I wish they had done more!

Oh and for those who want here is that map of the world unlabeled: http://i.imgur.com/MfXMwNP.jpg

I am slowly falling in love with many aspects of this setting, but do find the omnipresence of the more "D&D" races (Dragonborn and Tieflings) harder and harder to swollow. So for "my Nerath" I might dial those down to "legends" of the past that may or may not show up. Especially for the Warforged.

Cheers!

In addition to these, I would also like to point out the following:

The Mark of Nerath by Bill Slavicsek
The Seal of Karga Kul by Alexander Irvine
The Last Garrison by Matthew Beard
The Temple of Yellow Skulls: Abyssal Plague Book 1 by Don Bassingthwaite
Oath of Vigilance: Abyssal Plague Book 2 by James Wyatt
The Eye of the Chained God: Abyssal Plague Trilogy Book 3 by Don Bassingthwaite

All of these books take place in the same campaign world as the Nentir Veil and her truck filled with little tidbits of info.

So the way I am looking at the history the Arkosian Empire worshipped Dragons and eventually fell, but were not Dragonborn, but "saw" themselves as such, sort of like Targaryens I guess.

Then the Bael Turath were human as well, but a "Holy" empire that got slowly corrupted and turned to evil and infernalism.

I will cherry pick what I like from all the material, and in keeping with the idea of the PoLand campaign, personalize it all to my tastes.

Cheers!

Having a hard time finding them at affordable prices on the secondary market and the "digital" prices are absurd for D&D novels. Le sigh...

I read the Mark of Nerath a few years ago and actually enjoyed it quite a bit. How are the rest?

I enjoyed them. The Point of Lights system in spots can be really barebone and it was nice to have some story fluff to kind of get a sense of the feel.

A couple more I haven't seen mentioned yet:

Dungeon #186 - Backdrop: Mistwatch (town on Lake Wintermist)
Dungeon #193 - Enemies & Allies: All That Glitters (writeup of Fallcrest NPC, Catseye)

and of course a bunch of published and Dungeon mag adventures are nominally set in and around the Nentir Vale.

Thanks for the new ones!

Also anyone got a list of the Dungeon adventures set in the Vale (and around)?
