And to go back to my last post, there’s something about the rules for magic, how to get around, and terrain forming that rub me the wrong way. There were entire pages I skipped on getting around because they all amounted to “.but these can’t be relied on because KAYOS!”. Well thanks book! It’s one thing for a player to latch onto the Fishmalk role, but it’s entirely different if the book is encouraging the DM to take that role.
The booklet suggests that the DM adjust the effects depending on how severe the winds are (I forget if the 2nd Edition DMG had rules for weather. If it didn’t then I’m sure one of the blue soft-covers had rules). In addition, spells that operate either in full or in part by sound may be negated. If a spell requires a material component, then the caster has to make a Dexterity Check or the component is swept away before the spell is complete (the spell is lost when this happens). Finally, spells that create clouds or flames are ruined by the winds. Pandemonium’s Spell keys are thankfully uncomplicated: wind instruments carved from the stone of Pandemonium.
I see your point. Can I be a part of your faction now? The Travelogue gives some more info on the two major inhabitants of Limbo, the Slaadi and the Githzerai. The Travelogue repeats some information from the MC, because the assumption in those days was players never read the Monster Manuals. One new info is that Slaad almost pathologically fight one-on-one with their enemies. While this has the benefit of travellers never having to worry about getting overwhelmed by Slaad war parties, it can get frustrating because just killing the leader of a group of Slaad won’t convince the others to flee from the fight. Marivus Quince, merchant posted: The Githzerai come in two types: hardheaded and stubborn.
For example, while the booklet says that portals to Limbo have a tendency to misfire, it tells the DM that this should only happen if it’s a part of the adventure he has planned. Exasperated Planar to one of the Clueless posted: Of course the place looks different from last time, you berk! We’re in Limbo! A long analogy is provided to try to describe Limbo. The tl;dr version is “Element Stew where the chunks spontaneously form, mutate and dissolve.” The size of these chunks range from miniscule to continent-sized. And how long a chunk lasts can be for a minute to months or even years, but without support any distinct element dissolves back into the chaos. When chunks are a mix of elements, it can be as simple as burning air and up to complete ecosystems and even recognizable structures.
“The tavern’s missed, but the smell of the stable still lingers.”. Ysgardian Proverb posted: Better to wrestle a giant than lock horns with a Bariaur Steadfast is in fact a Bariaur community. I think that’s something that should have been stated in the first paragraph. The town boomed chaotically once the Bariaur discovered that it was relatively safe from crazy petitioners. Steadfast is built with Bariaur in mind, so there are no chairs, and guests of any species have to make do with a bed of straw and a bucket of oats. The town can quickly be moved if necessary, and the Bariaur know how to defend themselves.
Really glad you covered all your bases. Red Shroud of the Broken Shroud posted: One dose of poison is worth twenty daggers. The next entry is labeled a site, but more accurately it’s a ship. In particular it’s the Ship of Chaos.
If you stay in Pandemonium too long, you go mad. There are ways to manage the insanity, but it’s impossible to explain until you’ve already gone batty. Finally, there are no natural light sources in Pandemonium.
A spell school is either enhanced, altered, diminished, or nullified. To circumvent these restrictions and alterations, a Wizard can use Spell Keys that take the form of props or additional actions to cast the spell.
There are two additional booklets in the box. One is a collection of adventure seeds, and the other is the Monstrous Supplement. Next time: It’s just a fraction of a box set and I already miss Tony.
A “famous” pride of weretiger bandits called The Half Moon Tigers operate on the outskirts of the town. Their leader is called the White Shadow, and it’s at this point that I wonder if a freelance writer mixed up his submission to a White Wolf splatbook. The village of Eowr is run by celestial lammasu. The lammasu run a hospital, but they’re also really smug, and passive-aggressively encourage patients to switch to lawful-alignments. They’re certain that their irritated guests will return after they get into a fight with another soul-sucking fiend because what is healing magic? The oldest lammasu in the realm is named Shinora of the White Mane, and will talk the ear off of anyone who gives her the chance. The last town is Bresiris.
There are a couple of nearby monsters for adventurers to beat the crap out of. The Unseelie Court: This is the realm of the evil fairy deity, the Queen of Air and Darkness.
Here the booklet gives some great advice, telling the DM to encourage players to start hamming things up even more while in Arborea. Then it has the not-so-good advice of requiring a save versus paralyzation to not react strongly, but at least it says this should only be done as a last resort, and “failing a saving throw shouldn’t always be a bad thing for the characters.” It even says to give extra xp to players that that get melodramatic. Wow, I almost forgot I’m reading 2nd edition D&D.
Magical Conditions For starters, you’re going to need the Tome of Magic. Whenever a Wizard tries to cast a spell, he has to make an Intelligence Check. At least that’s his primary stat, but on a failure, the spell fizzles. If the wizard was in the chaos-soup and fails this check, a wild surge automatically occurs. In stable areas, wild surges occur if the wizard rolls a 20 on his check. Then there are the changes to specific schools: Alteration: When casting an alteration spell, a player must make a percentage roll and consult the following table. This roll is modified by adding the spell-level and subtracting the caster’s level.
TAKE THE PLUNGE INTO: The infinite depths of the Abyss. The wild passions of Arborea. The immeasurable randomness of Limbo.

Women will help in defense too “though they wield only kitchen knives and kindling axes.” Uhh, okay. Geirmund of the Ring-Givers posted: Strength to those who stumble, food to those who hugner. Everything is free in Skeinheim, at least on the face of it. The dark of it is that giving shit out is how Ring-Givers get people in-debted to them. The Bargainers are actually insistent on giving stuff away, which results in them tossing about plot-hooks like Pinhead. The two adventure seeds involve finding an arsonist that has infiltrated the hall and finding out what is spooking the ratatosk on the nearby connection to Outlands. Steadfast: The last location described in the first layer is an independent town located halfway between Asgard and Vanaheim.
Move Silently and Move in Shadows get a 10% bonus and creatures have a +2 to their chance to surprise. On the 46th layer, light comes up from the ground instead of down from the sky, making shadows rise in stark columns. One would think this would mess with attempts to hide, but no rules indicate they are. On the 47th layer, hot and cold are flipped.
Unlike other water layers like Gaping Maw or Thalasia in Elysium, Ossa’s waters are shallow, only 3 feet, meaning it’s possible to wade through the water unless you are a gnome or halfling (anyone that ran Black Morass as a gnome is permitted to shudder). Unfortunately the actual realms occupy deep chasms, so bring your water-breathing potion and free movement ring. Poseidon’s realm is known as Caletto. According to the description, it “is remarkably habitable for most travelers - those who can breathe water anyway.” I think that’s sort of a sticky point for even a low-level group of adventurers.
Dream Hunters are most often sphinxes, tabaxi, and a breed of house-cats called The Children of Bast. Besides guarding visitors from the effects of this realm, a Dream Hunter can “stalk and kill dreams, wyrds, fates, and prophecies. Mechanically, this works as a variant of the psionic powers Spirit Sense and Precognition. The best of the Dream Hunters is an Androsphinx named Mragatep. 
He’s described as relatively sociable for his kind, and is eager to find a Gynosphinx mate.
The book repeats the explanation for how Githzerai can be insanely loyal while also being Chaotic Neutral (“Loyalty of Individuals”), and again I find the explanation fine because otherwise you get dumb nonsense like Kender. Xaositects are common in Limbo, since it’s basically what they want the rest of the Multiverse to look like. Being Xaositects they have no stronghold or overall agenda. Aside from the Githzerai, other PC races and more unusual races such as orcs and goblins have migrated to Limbo either intentionally or by accident. Like the Githzerai these races have formed cities from the chaos-soup, which are unusually cosmopolitan. The different races in these cities have an uneasy alliance, but the threat of Slaadi hordes coming and eating/raping/assimilating them is enough to keep these cities from exploding into racial violence.
The second method is to find the gates between the layers. These take the form of open furnaces, and passing through them do fire damage to the unprotected. Of course Tanar’ri will set up non-portal ovens because they are nothing if not dicks. The final way out is to travel to the realms’ capital city, Zelatar, which connects to the other layers of the realm and has a conduit to other layers and Lower Planes. Unfortunately, most of those conduits are anchored inside Graz’zt’s palace, and before even reaching the city, adventurers have to avoid hunting parties led by Graz’zt and his partners. The final layer described is the 113th, Thanatos. The aptly named layer is dominated by the undead and ruled over by Kiaransalee, the Drow goddess of vengeance and the undead.
Despite his importance, Bjorn isn’t actually a proxy. Bjorn is a true believer in the Fated philosophy, so if you get scammed in Himinborg then you’re S.o.L. Despite this, Bjorn is described as being “quick but fair” when judging disputes. Himinborg serves as a center of trade and Asgard’s first line of defense. The trade comes from traffic along Bifrost, which brings a lots of visitors from the Prime Material.
I dislike that the rules require purchasing an unrelated supplement, but at least the 2nd edition Tome of Magic is a worthwhile addition. That doesn’t excuse that the rules explicitly encourage the DM to fuck with his players. Compare this writing to what we get for The Abyss. The Abyss is supposed to be the deadliest place to visit on the Outer Planes, but reading through the book it’s clear what to expect and the rules are written to so that the DM can be fair without sacrificing the feeling that things are dangerous. By contrast, Limbo goes full hog on being Chaotic Neutral to the detriment of being a worthwhile place to adventure. On the other hand, “Slaadheim” So that’s Limbo, the Garry’s Mod of Planescape. Next Time: It’s a Mad, Mad Universe.
I dislike this because it leaves too much room for a DM to screw a player trying to be as as the dice allow. Second, the effect works as the raise dead spell, which in 2nd edition meant the player has to make a resurrection survival save, and loses 1 point of constitution on a success. If a player does manage to prove himself, then Asgard will treat him or her like a rockstar, at least until someone new comes by and shows them up. The most important non-Power NPCs in Asgard are the Valkyries. Now, there are no stats for Valkyries in the Monstrous Supplement that came with the box, nor are they in the Planescape Monstrous Compendium. It’s a pretty big oversight, but I suppose you could wing it by just re-flavoring one of the Aasimon. Anyway, the leader of the Valkyries is Reginleif, who is amusingly a member of the Fated.

Zelatar, the largest city, shifts so much that rumors are that it’s trying to recreate the portals of Sigil. Zelatar’s town crier is a Tiefling Convert name Mefisto who’ll shout any news you pay him to deliver, whether it’s true or not. Tanar’ri find it amusing to figure out what’s true and what’s not. Somehow, no one has killed Mefisto or “injured him enough that he can’t make his daily rounds.” The Argent Palace is said to contain mature conduits to the Plain of Infinite Portals, Pandemonium and Gehenna.
So humans become tieflings, tieflings become Tanar’ri, githzerai become githyanki, elves become drow, bariaur become lamia, and so on. If the target is a Tanar’ri, it becomes either a stronger or weaker form of Tanar’ri. If the target is inanimate, it becomes useless goop. Conjuration/Summoning - There’s a 10% x spell level chance that a Tanar’ri answers the summons. Divination - True Tanar’ri and Abyssal Lords in The Abyss always know when they’re being snooped on, and can reach through the spell to retaliate. This retaliation takes the form of the divination spell used, and the counterattack is of lower or equal level to the divination spell cast.
Green fire, which is especially rare, does 4d6 damage/round, but also hardens the skin of any creature that can withstand the flames for 10 rounds (-1 bonus to AC). White flames do 7d6/round, and blind anyone that can’t protect their vision (such as a darkness spell or equivalent).
While the wilderness will go easy on a respectful berk, but it’s damn near impassable. While the terrain isn’t obviously supernatural, it is massive, well beyond the scale of any Prime Material world. It’s fortunate that both the Greeks and Elves love ridable flying creatures, because you’ll need one to travel the plane.
Loki is always in a bad mood while here. The Halls of Winter include both the longhouse and the cavern it’s in, which is in a perpetual snow storm.
Unlike his colleague, Surtr stays in one place, ruling from Meerrauk. Meerrauk is where the Skull-Throne of Ymir can be found. The smallest settlement in Jotunheim is a Ring-Giver enclave. It’s a beer-hall named Okalnir, and it’s where giants go to have fun when not battling the Norse.
