Tales of Wyre

[Justin]

Hi Justin,
I used the PDF files of the posts to create these word files. The reason I'm doing this is to format it into a more printable document for people to print their own copy if they wish. I'd love to hold these in my had while reading them instead of just on a screen. I'm looking for input on how to make it look nice when printed and read. If new readers decide to pick it up by borrowing a physical copy, I want them to think this was professionally done. Something like this GitHub - t3db0t/unsong-printable-book: A completely ready-to-print copy of "Unsong" by Scott Alexander.

Yep, Wyre deserves a beautiful Subterranean Press-quality massive hardcover tome or three! Sanderson and Erikson can go take a seat in the corner and see how fantasy is truly done!

The early threads have formatting by Sep, so I would mimic that. Viz. spell names, mental commmunication, and similar.

Personally, I'd find it fascinating to be transported into this world (remember the 1980s D&D cartoon?) as something like an ascetic half-shadow rogue/monk-like Void Incarnate (perma-mindblanked and immune to force-effects!) and see how well I could survive. (Note my avatar. I like Glooms and would very much like to know more about them!)

My first published D&D article was on on shadow magics, in White Wolf Magazine #11, way back in 1988. I've shared some of that info in Knockspell Magazine #6 (the magazine folded before part 2 was published), but haven't gotten that into my blog yet. Working more on that is in my 2023 campaign planning, as part of my a mysterious forest largely-dropped from the published Greyhawk maps: https://grodog.blogspot.com/2020/04/the-strange-case-of-the-forgotten-folio-forest.html

I wonder just how many of us have stolen the Paladin/Succubus idea for our own games? I certainly have.

With their high charisma, succubi make great paladins!

wait, that’s not what you meant, is it?

I've certainly borrowed elements, and some elements are joined through synchronicity across time!

Most-recently, I've seeded a certain divinatory artifact into my Greyhawk campaign: https://grodog.blogspot.com/2022/11/the-prophecy-of-the-six-and-the-twelve.html
