Woo-hoo! Heroes of Horror preview!!

As far as the "dread witch," which I did write, let me just say that the title is entirely appropriate; I didn't just pick the word "dread" out of the air.

And no, I can't explain what I mean, but you'll see soon enough.

Sniff, Sniff, Do i smell a class whose abilities don't work against foes immune to fear effects?

Say, did anyone responsible for that HoH Cover know about the story “Sticks” or is all they new about those lattices from “the Blair witch”. I actually liked Blair, but that does not change how it ‘borrowed’ off “Sticks”.

It sounds like they can (at least partly) override the immunity to fear.

Why am I thinking an Archivist/Scout/Warlock combo would be pretty darn entertaining? I don't mean 3 characters, I mean one guy multi-classing.

I couldn't even hazard a guess.

I think you want the wierdest character thread, it's somewhere around here...

I dunno, a ranger, warlock, archivist, and scout might be a descent undead-hunting team...

Okie, not nearly as interesting as previews or interviews, but another map is up.

A ranger, a scout, an archivist, and a scout walk into a bar......

What? Let me guess, the Warlock ducked and the Scout backed up, failed to find it the second time either and walked into it again.

The demigod CAS. . .

Hmmm, I suppose Klarkash-ton was already used by Lovecraft, leaving Cas for the name of this demigod. I could be wrong.
Anyway, what really has got me excited about this book is all the times Clark Ashton Smith is mentioned by the writers of the book. CAS is my favorite of the "wierd" writers, and I have been wanting to make my games feel more like his stories. If only I could get my players to make characters more like Satampra Zeiros.
Thanks for writing this one Ari (and C.A., and James)! Hopefully my FLGS will have it on Friday.
