Since the signing of the Pact of Greyhawk, his empire of tyranny and suffering is secure – at least for a time. None of the lands of good and hope are strong enough to threaten him, Iuz surveys his domain and cackles gleefully. He has added much to his holdings, but he is not yet content. This sourcebook details the many lands Iuz controls; his dark priests and their magic; Iuz's fiendish allies from the Abyss; his marauding humanoid armies and raiders; and much, much more. These are lands of ineffable evil, a beacon for adventurers seeking glory within their perilous borders. Servants of good, prepare your weapons and ready your spells, for there are no challenges greater in all the Flanaess than those of the Lands of Iuz. All is not yet lost, for Iuz struggles to maintain control over his vast empire and even his countless armies have suffered grievous losses in the Greyhawk Wars. Striking against him now is imperative, before the strength of the fiendish demigod waxes great again. The Dungeon Master using this sourcebook will find a wealth of material, enabling him to use this campaign setting for many adventures. What is more, these adventures can very greatly: guerilla warfare on the outskirts of Iuz's lands; border watch in the fair land of Furyondy; desperate struggles for survival in the Fellreev Forest or the Rift Canyon; spine-chilling encounters with Iuz's priests; rescue missions replete with danger and tension; rallying the resistance which remains in some quarters of Iuz’ empire; the intrigue of setting the servants of evil at each other’s throats; and strikes to despoil and thwart the resources and plans of the Old One. What more could any adventurer wish? The lands of Iuz have all of this and more. This sourcebook will provide any Dungeon Master with a string of campaign ideas for characters of any level of experience. These lands will reward heroic adventurers over a long career. If they survive its perils, that is. To use Iuz the Evil, you will need the standard AD&D® rulebooks (Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master™ Guide, Monstrous Compendiums I and II), and From the Ashes, the world guide to the whole Flanaess. Possession of the sourcebook The Marklands is strongly recommended if you wish to use the Vesve Forest and the border with Furyondy in campaigning. The Monstrous Compendium™ Greyhawk® Appendix is likewise vital for campaign play in Greyhawk. Finally, the Monstrous Compendium: Outer Planes Appendix is an important reference for details of the fiends which consort with the Old One. The servants of a terrible darkness are waiting. Only the bravest and best can hope to face them now at the height of their power. History of the Lands his chapter gives a resume of the history of Iuz's lands and a broad overview of how his empire now stands. It also Tincludes the low-down on his goals, ultimate objectives, fears, and those who ally with: and oppose him. Finally, Iuz's relations with the rest of the Flanaess and the Powers of Oerth are described. Spawn of Evil As of 479 CY, what would become known as the Land of Iuz was only a collection of petty fiefs, with chiefs of minor bandit warbands and clans fighting each other for control of small swathes of barren land. One of these minor despots died in that year and his "son," Iuz, took control of a few hundred chaotic, vicious bandits. That was just the beginning, but then Iuz was no ordinary bandit's "son." Iuz was born of a human mother, the necromancer Iggwilv, and a great tanar'ri lord, Graz'zt, ruler of several Abyssal planes. The young cambion tanar'ri soon used his powers to great effect. Realizing that his warriors could not hope to triumph by simple force, Iuz began to ally his men with other minor clan leaders to beat off stronger enemies. Of course, those allies always ended up suffering most of the casualties and their leaders died in battle with astonishing predictability. Slowly, the size of Iuz's warband increased. Celbit and Jebli orcs of the Vesve margins began to join. The human scum serving Iuz didn't like the orcs overmuch, but they soon saw how their enemies liked them even less. And of course, there was Iuz's magic. Many cambions wield magic, but that of Iuz, aided by his mother, was far more powerful than anything the competing hordes could muster. Iuz had control of the entire Land of Iuz in little over a decade. 2 Refugees from this domain fled to Furyondy, telling stories of the most ghastly abominations. Iuz's capital city, Dorakaa, was a charnel house, with a road of skulls being constructed from there to the Howling Hills. Watchtowers along the road were entered by chained slaves, who never saw the light of day again. From the towers, acrid clouds of smoke belched out across the barren plains. Burning beacons proclaimed to all Oerik that Iuz had a kingdom and sought further conquest. King Avras of Furyondy grew concerned about the rise of evil to the north of his lands, and the elves, rangers and good forces of the Vesve began fighting in earnest for the safety of their homeland against the increasingly well-trained and marshalled humanoids in Iuz’ service. But neither Furyondy nor Vesve was directly involved in the banishment of Iuz, generally dated to 505 CY. The full tale of this banishment, in the dungeons of Castle Greyhawk,

  • Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil ERRATA and FAQ
    Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil ERRATA AND FAQ A collaborative product of the members of Monte Cook's Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil web forum. Compiled, edited, and formatted by Siobharek. PDF version edited by ZansForCans. Modified: 11 February 2003 The definitive source for this errata and FAQ can be found in the ‘sticky’ threads at the top of the topic list on Monte Cook's Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil web forum. None of these errata or FAQ are official in any way (i.e. Monte or WotC have not said "That's right."), but most have been agreed to be accurate and true to the core rulebooks by many DMs running this adventure. NPC stats corrections are grouped in the appropriate chapter that the NPC appears in. In some cases, there is no ‘fix’ suggested—the errata is simply provided to alert you to a discrepancy. You didn’t think we’d do all the work for you, did you? It may seem like there are quite a lot of errata for this product. There are! Part of the explanation we have heard is that Monte was working on the adventure while D&D 3e was still being finalized. The rest we simply blame on his editors. ;) We welcome further corrections and additions to this list. However, when and if you find something that doesn't seem right, please check in every available rulebook. For instance, adding the right number of feats and stat increases to monsters with classes can be fiendishly hard but check it and double check it as much as you can.

  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

Its origins date back to the end of the 6th century; when saint Gall came to the duke of Alamannia, Gunzo, around the year 613, the duke promised him the episcopate, if he would cure his doughter.i In the 9th century some of the bishops also were abbots of the monasteries on the Island Reichenau and of Saint Gall. Three of the bishops were called Salomon, one being the uncle of the following.ii The noble family they belonged to is not known, but they possessed land on the southern shore of Lake Constance, in the province of Thurgau. Salomon III. was educated in the monastery of Saint Gall, and prepared especially for the episcopate. Maybe his uncle and granduncle also benefitted from such an education. Even their predecessor, bishop Wolfleoz, started his career as monk in Saint Gall. It is likely that the three Salomons were given their names with the wish, that they once would gain this office.
