THE WINTER RUNES & THE RUNEMARK PART THE FI RST OF THE HORNED GOD’S WINTER Winter Runes is divided into two books. Book One provides the DM and the player with all the background, adventure and setting information needed to introduce the Winter Runes. Part Two provides the mechanics for the Winter Runes, a new magic using core class, the RuneMark, class spells, abilities and rules for plane travel. Winter Runes consists of a Runic Alphabet with each character representing a spell. The key in the back of the book gives the DM and player easy access to the Runes and the RuneSpells they represent. All are fully compatible with any ongoing game and are designed to enhance the already existing magic system. There are two overall adventures provided in Winter Runes. These place a few of the RuneSpells in a difficult and challenging environment providing solid examples of how to introduce the RuneSpells, either in a continuous number of sessions or over an extended period of time. The adventures are placed in the world of Erde, the setting brought to you by the Codex of Erde, but all are easily adapted to homebrew or other existing campaigns (refer to “Setting & Placement” below). “The Winter’s Wind Never Breaks, on Summer’s Shore no Stop it Takes,T he Shroud of Darkness, Cold and StarkThe world the Horned God’s Winters Dark.” A MARK OF HISTORY long, majestic hall of the Emperor. “Your path and mine have at last crossed, my Lord Emperor.

From the mountains to where the Teifsich joins it, there are two bridges. Their original names are lost to history but the Orcs call them, in the Vulgate, the Granbridge and the Urlpalls . Both are stone and in decent shape. The Granbridge in the west can hold four wagons abreast, skirting the river by a mere 20 yards, while the Urlpalls is far more narrow and high.

  • Gary's Clarifications
    Gary’s Clarifications When I saw the Zagyg’s Wisdom super-thread on Dragonsfoot, I thought what a great idea it was to have a section where Gary answered questions about D&D and offered clarifications and interpretations about the game he created. And if he isn’t around to answer more questions, at least we can benefit from what people asked him when they had the chance. Reading through the thread, it occurred to me that all these clarifications could be gathered up into a single document for easier reference, sorted by category. Steve at Dragonsfoot liked the idea, so I got started…and found that sorting them wasn’t as neat and easy as I’d expected. I’ve had to make a lot of judgement calls: for instance, should a question about true neutral clerics go under Classes or Alignment? So I apologize if the organization of this document seems a little haphazard, but I’ve done what I could with it. There are a very few posts from one category that I copied into another, but for the most part I tried to make a single choice and hope it was the right one. I’ve included some categories that aren’t exactly D&D or that wouldn’t be relevant to every campaign (Greyhawk, for example), but they’re in their own sections so they can be ignored by those not interested. These “related” sections are generally unsorted, as they didn't lend themselves as well to discrete categories. In the interest of keeping it short, I generally removed people’s greeting remarks (“Hi Gary,” etc.), though I left in whatever Gary said in case it should be helpful in assessing his “gut feel” reaction to the question.
