[QUOTE="demiurge1138, post: 3046397, member: 7451"] Well, they gave it away in 2005. They're just adding some butter-flavored topping in 2006. And I can understand them not wanting to do an Expedition to it. For one thing, there was already a Return to White Plume Mountain in the 2e years. For another, White Plume is one of those dungeons that's really at odds with 3e game design. It's a Disneyland Dungeon, a twisted amusement park that is not at home to Mr. Sense. I love it, but its simplicity and illogic don't play nicely with modern aesthetics. And I'm not that much of a continuity whore. I'm fine with all sorts of planar tweaking, f'r instance. The Dragotha legend of other versions just spoke to me, is all. Dragon 134 is one of the few older issues of Dragon I own, and Dragotha's appearance in Age of Worms made me insanely happy. Plus, I strongly suspect that the Web Enhancement's Dragotha was stolen and name-switched from a recent Dragon Mag Ecology of the Dracolich article, but that's just my rampant paranoia. Oh, and Fiendish Codex 1 proved that the magical continuity building can happen - although I think it's hilarious that Erik Mona's said several times that he's very happy he didn't get stuck writing about Hell. Demiurge out. [/QUOTE]
