  • An "Official" Spelljammer Guide to the Spheres [Revised 1.0]
    Guide to the Spheres An "official" Spelljammer Guide to the Spheres [revised 1.0] By Paul Westermeyer aka GMWestermeyer Table of Contents: Page Section 1 Introduction 2 Phlogiston Navigation 4 Phlogiston Transit Times 4 Where is the Rock of Bral? 6 “Official” Flow Map 7 The Spheres and other Phlogiston Locations 23 ‘Loose’ Planets/Worlds 34 Bibliography: Introduction Spelljammer is a very unique and creative setting, but it is also one of the worst organized settings TSR produced with material is scattered among many different products. This makes it very difficult to find what you are looking for, a problem exasperated by Spelljammer’s status as a ‘connection’ campaign, designed (like Planescape) to connect the ‘big’ three settings, Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, and Dragonlance. I’ve been working to alleviate this problem by writing guides and indices for those aspects of Spelljammer that are most important for creating a coherent, rational game setting. The first of these guides was An “Official” Spelljammer Timeline, which collated Spelljammer-related historical mentions in published TSR products into a cohesive, coherent timeline that Spelljammer (or Hackjammer) gamemasters could use as the foundation of their own, personalized campaigns. This guide, An “Official” Spelljammer Guide to the Spheres, has a similar purpose. Spelljammer’s iconic center is the Rock of Bral, just as Sigil is the iconic heart of Planescape, Spelljammer’s setting cousin, but Sigil’s location is quite firmly placed at the center of the Plane of Concordant Opposition, metaphorically the heart of the entire Advanced Dungeons and Dragons multiverse. Moreover, the various inner and outer planes are all well mapped in relation to each other, and have been ever since the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons Player’s Handbook in 1978.

  • Boomstone Brass Assassin Charis Coral General Russo Inquisitor
    Boomstone Boomstone is a Thunder Golem redesigned around one of the new red magestone golem­brains. The addition created a Thunder Golem who is sentient­­or at least very nearly so. Boomstone has of course heard of Redgear Bowblade and his Steelhands, but he is quite happy blasting things to bits for his Atlantean friends, and sees no reason to stop doing so. Brass Assassin The Brass Assassin is a variation on the Impaling Golem designed for stealthy elimination of key targets. Select implantation of red magestone has increased the initiative shown by the construct, but has left it still far short of sentience. Charis Charis returned to the fold when the Apocalypse Dragon began its rampage, returning to Atlantis in an attempt to save the Empire he realized he still loved. Coral Although her father Dagon succumbed to the lure of the Apocalypse Cult, Coral has remained true to the Atlantean Empire. She is sometimes viewed with suspicion due to her father's frenzied loyalty to the forces of the Apocalypse, but her continued success as a treasure hunter and relic­finder keeps her in favor. General Russo Now that Rayden Marz has taken Prieska, General Russo has been called back to serve as General Volkare's second­in­command in the Imperial Legion. Russo sees the transfer as a demotion, but remains loyal to Jeet Nujarek's regime, determined to excel in his new position and demonstrate his worthiness for promotion once again. Inquisitor In order to ensure the continued loyalty of the Imperial Legion, Emperor Nujarek has embedded picked Inquisitors into each cohort of the Legion.
