Tu'narath

[avin]

Tu'narath article is up on Wotc website: https://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/drback/20090710

All fluff.

I find interesting that they present the events that led to Scale of Wars almost like a alternative timeline in future, which is good. Kudos for any RPG article who offer alternatives instead of forcing a path.

As I never used the dragfon pact on my homebrews I feel free to ignore all that Scales of War nonsense (I'm just messing with it)

I liked the article a lot and it seems to jive with a lot of previous fluff. It was interesting that WoTC presents SoW as being influenced by the events of the "Lich Queen's Beloved" in Dungeon 100. My one reservation about the adventure is that you don't get stats for the lich-queen Vlaakith. I would have liked that crunch.

I don't subscribe to the magazine so I'm curious, how long is the article?

I'd love to see stats for the lich-queen as well. I'm guessing she's a level 25+ monster at least. She has to be to keep all those Githyanki in line. One other thing, does the article make mention of any kind of resistance to the lich queen from her "constituents"? I've got to figure there has to be and it makes for the perfect excuse for a githyanki PC.

It's 13 pages, all fluff. Good stuff, though, that's for sure. And it's nice for the DM's running SoW to have some background to help flesh out their campaign.

Perhaps I am missing something, but why exactly does this article have the Forgotten Realms logo on it? It seems to be more general than anything.

That puzzled me too.

It appears to be a mistake to me.

It's actually a Scales of War article. But it is also quite valid outside SoW.

Great article; it is not only about a city, it's also about githyanki's society, psychology, and history. And I was very intrigued by the "dead god" (and the speculation about it) over which Tu'narath was built.

 

[kilamanjaro]

If I recall correctly, the dead god that Tu'narath is built on was a god of the gith before they were enslaved by the mind flayers. I god of peace and light I think.
