    Grimhollow. Come to the idyllic village of Grimhollow, where the real estate is cheap because your neighbors are to die for.

    See! Rivers of blood!

    See! Plagues of locusts!

    See! The Rolling Stones still on tour after all these years!

    (Some irony not included)




    This is why I love fantasy. You can't get away with names like that anyplace else :D

    Nice to see consistent roll of information, written in a way to keep suspense alive and whetting the appetite too.

    Agreed Gill, this is certainly a great sign, and well done.

    Nice lore post, but again I would like to helpfully point out a typo as I did in the Monster of Ebon Downs thread, although nobody seemed to notice my help :-( , it has been corrected, so here's another I spotted.

    "Kelemvor" is the correct name and spelling of the Realms' God of Death, not Kelevmor.

    A simple Letter Juxtaposition error, I am prone to spot them now since I am mildly dyslexic and always on the lookout for my own such errors.

    Game on.

    Thanks for catching that! I'll ask Stormshade to edit it. We're all dyslexic over here.

    Sounds a lot like the Barrow Downs. I can't wait to check it out.

    I'm just happy somebody caught it. My jokes are always funny to me, but often times fall flat on everybody else.

    Otherwise, it's a good teaser and I'm excited for more from the art department and content folks.

    I read it correctly! Sometimes dyslexia can be a good thing!

    Like I mentioned, my dyslexia is mild, and when I'm not tired I am very aware and on the lookout for these typos.

    Typical low-level undead-infested area. They're like plot holes - every RPG has one b:laugh

    Still, I'd say very well done atmosphere-wise, and quite fitting for the post-apocalyptic-ish setting. I also chuckled at how they made the sounds for the wights b:chuckle

    P.S. Kelemvor is a chump. Myrkul ftw! :p
