Hi everybody,
I am on the list for about 2 months now, but I remained silent -- until now!
I just started DMing a new campaign in Khinasi in the Plain States -
Zhaiinge Valley region, and I have some questions for those who know the
answers. I am sorry if these questions were on before, in that case I could
not find it in the archives.
So here they goes:
1) Who rules in Direwood? In the map it seems that Direwood belongs to the
territory of the Black Spear gnolls, however the Cities of the Sun handles
it under Mesire, but without saying any particular facts, but a short
sentence: "today all know that some malign entity rules the Direwood". Also
at Mesire, the book states: "The emir, a skilled mage controls sources in
his own state and in the wild Direwood and Black Spear Tribe land to the
north as well." But later in the "Other Domains" section nothing indicates
that the emir actually has some sources there. What is the truth then?
2) On p36 of the Cities of the Sun it says under "The Dhoumaire" section :
"Local say the dhoumaire are a tall, slender folk able to take other shapes
and possessed of strange mind powers." Does it mean, that the dhoumaire are
shapeshifters and psionicists all in one? It would contradict the fact,
that there are no psionicists in Cerilia. What's the truth then again?
Thank you in advance for any responses,
Roland
