Tower of War, 2nd Level. The Hungry Halls.

https://inkarnate.com/m/5qW09D--tower-of-war-hungry-halls-2nd-level-castle-greyhawk/

An individual interpretation of the various levels from the legendary Greyhawk Ruins. Maps were created in Inkarnate based on the original maps from 2nd Edition "Greyhawk Ruins."

Maps are all cr ...

I think it also has something to do with their "Home Plane." I do not have my rule books in front of me but I believe that Iuz is listed as Prime Material or Oerth or something like that which allows ...

My personal opinions on this matter are that I think I liked the Scarlet Brotherhood when they were this "mysterious and unknown entity" from a faraway peninsula. Now there is quite a bit about them ...

Oh don't tease us PSmedger. You know that is how rumors get started. But if it were only true...

Boy does this forum bring back memories. I remember when D&D was first coming out (yes, I am that old), and how intrigued I was with the whole thing. I started off with the simple boxed set that was ...

Some thoughts:

I also thought the Harby article was very well done and was also impressed by the length of the detail since usually those articles aren't given as much magazine space for whatever r ...

I know! I can't wait for that to come out. I normally do not buy Dungeon! but I will just for that article. I also got the write up of Harby and thought it was excellent as well as informative. Si ...

Thank you. Oh, thank you! I have been wondering the EXACT same thing ever since LGG first came out. I never got around to really vocalize it though. I too heard the rumor that Cobb Darg was a poly ...

I completely agree with Greyson in that Return of the Eight is an excellent adventure. I would also like to add:

We now have details on the strongholds of two of the members of the Circle of Eight ...

The point of this forum is that someone ELSE has to carry on with the layer listed above. They in turn will end their description with a new layer which someone else will describe, and so on. This a ...

Oops!

Sorry Rich,

Didn't even think about that. Am I bad? Embarassed

I found a similar forum to this in another website that I thought was kind of a interesting idea and allows for the exchange of creative ideas. I, for one, have always been interested in the Inner an ...

I also found this information in the Greyhawk Glossography (1983):

Kelanen, The Prince of Swords
AC: -5
Move: 18"
Hit Points: 159
# of Atks: 2
Dmg/Atk: by sword type

Hi Zephir,

Here is what I could find. I might have more if you need it. As far as his holy symbol is concerned, I don't recall ever seeing a picture of it but it is just 9 swords forming a circle ...

I would recommend that you get the AD&D book "Return of the Eight." There is a picture of Iggwilv on page 55 as well as a brief history of the "Witch of Perrenland." She is listed as an archmage and ...

Thanks for the help. Now answer me this: if a train traveling from Boston to Chicago is going 67 mph... Wink

My head hurts just thinking about it. According to the Manual of the Planes, the elemental planes are of "infinite" size which means they go on and on with no end. Then how can there be "border" pla ...

I wouldn't mind seeing any of the Living Greyhawk journals. I have seen the first introductory one about the Circle of Eight as well as any that were listed in Dragon magazine but that is it. Any ch ...

It refers to the special torture that the Overking put his treacherous cleric Spidasa, former vassal of Medegia, under called the Endless Death (I think). He is continuously tortured while wearing a ...

I found this on platinumcrown.com but I don't know if it'll help but at least its something:

"The next morning, they gathered their gear, grabbed Fessick and set out. After two days, they passed t ...

Thanks guys for the info. I'll have to check those out. I wonder if they have the "Dummies" version yet?

Just curious, what is the software you use to create maps like that for the computer anyway. I have been wanting to do that for my home campaign but don't even know where to begin. I don't really ca ...

Check out the latest article. I actually found it very interesting. I remember first hearing the subject in the 1e Monster Manual and thought it sounded intriguing. I for one would love to hear muc ...

I have always been partial to the Pre-Wars simply because I really liked some of the pre-war locations that unfortunately went with the wind after Iuz (particularly Almor, Medegia, Horned Society and ...

Better late than never:

I really did not find a lot of information on this topic out there but surely there must be a horde of spellcasters since the Sorcerer's Nexus exists in Rel Astra (see Oerth ...

Cutter,
If you can get your hands on a copy, Dragon Annual #1 (1996) has a great little overview of the world of Oerth "Beyond the Flanaess." It includes a nice map as well and gives a brief descri ...

Yes, the Bandit Kingdoms were always such. They were originally an outlaw area of minor petty nobles and such from the former Great Kingdom that formed their own more or less independent territory ba ...

Very interesting comparison. I never really thought about that but I can definitely see some of the similarities. Too bad WotC don't have the rights to Melnibone so they could retain that section in ...

One of my favorite adventures for new players is/was "Palace of the Silver Princess." Don't know if it is still available though but you can either do a "Google" search, get it off eBay or possibly e ...

What can people tell me about this mysterious figure. I thought I remembered reading somewhere that he was sent to Oerth by none other than Correlan Larethian and perhaps one other deity. Any truth ...

It is a site called "Gord's Greyhawk." Here is the address:

Here is what I could find. Hope it helps.

Here is what little info I could get on the City of Glass:
The wizard then led them to a cliff-side and, pointing inland, laid bare to them a great spectacle. Off in the distance, near the middle sp ...

I think the best thing about these forums is the soapbox it gives us to ramble on about our opinions. I wanted to just take some time to discuss the Greyhawk setting in general and also to hear what ...

Here is some information I found in the Oerth Journal #6:
Over nine hundred years ago, the Isles of Woe, as they are now known, were a small Aerdian kingdom encompassing several small islands of the ...

So, what's with all these sleepy gods mucking about in the Pomarj then. It is the home of the Earth Dragon god as well according to Slavers. Makes ya wonder if there are any more.

Fred Weining's Blackmoor article is still available online through the Oerth Journal. I did a google search for the words "Fred Weining" and a number of options pop up. Scroll down until you find wh ...

I always used to read that as "Ready Wheat" since it takes place after the harvest.

This is taken from an article from Dragon Magazine (#57 I think):

Idee: Fedorik Eddri, Count of Idee, has developed the trade of his realm to a point where the populace are prosper-ous and happy. ...

The Crook of Rao resembles an ornate shepherd's staff. It is made of hornwood and set with several precious gemstones (jacinth, alexandrite, sard, topaz, and others). The shaft and headpiece are sho ...

As the DM of course, you can rule however you feel is fit. My suggestion though would be to listen to what your players have to say but they must realize that your rulings are final even if they may ...
