  • 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.

  • The Dragons' Return
    Nithogar stared at the giant in silence, without the twitch of a draconic muscle. Eventually, he spoke. “The ancient pacts made be- tween your people and my own lord Erixalimar, the dragon king, forbade you from even coming to this land. Yet here you stand.” “We came here,” Re-Magul said, “because this land was in peril. A peril you had wrought, then fled from.” The muscles around Nithogar’s wide mouth twitched. “Oh yes,” the giant continued. “Perhaps you thought that such lore had been lost, but I know who you are, Nithogar the Wicked. Nithogar the Hated. Nithogar the Despoiler.” “These are epithets I must have earned after I left.” “Then how about this one, dragon: Nithogar, creator of the dramojh.” Out of habit, Re-Magul spat as he said “dramojh.” Nithogar flexed his wings. “You know nothing of it, Hu-Charad.” “Nothing?” Re-Magul’s eyes flared. “You are ancient, it is true, but I am no mere youth. I was there when the stone ships arrived on these shores. I remember the battles with the dramojh—the so-called ‘dragon scions.’ I saw friends and relatives die in their claws and teeth. They scuttled out of the shadows and raped this land like nothing before them or—thank all the singers in the Houses of the Eternal—since.” “So your kind dealt with the dramojh. I am aware of that,” the dragon said. “And you were some kind of leader in your campaign against them. What do you want from me? Gratitude? So be it. Thanks to you, giant, and to all your kind.” And with a sneer, he added quickly: “Now be on your way.” Sample file PROUDLY PRESENTS MONTE COOK’S ARCANA EVOLVED A variant player’s handbook written by one of the designers of 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons®.
