Re: Nordlond: The Citadel at Nordvorn
Wow. That was what, a week or two?
Not bad, Royal Mail!

Re: Nordlond: The Citadel at Nordvorn
Just over two weeks.
I'm liking the heft of this tome.

Re: Nordlond: The Citadel at Nordvorn
Got the PDF yesterday. It's interesting, but a little hard to digest. It feels like every bit of world-building depends on every other bit of world-building. I'm also a bit puzzled by the apparent use of corpse-golems as the setting's generic undead—are they undead rather than constructs in this setting? Do they have hands or do they sprout blades on rising?

I'm not asking these questions because I feel permanently stumped on them; I suspect I could work out the answers eventually. But it's a snapshot of what it's like trying to digest the new setting. It's a bit like reading GURPS Martial Arts: Technical Grappling for the first time, actually. |

the Frostharrow is the north end of the Vesturham mountain range, straight northeast of the Veiddarlond. You're right - the exact location isn't defined in Nordvorn, but it is shown in Hall of Judgment. If I ever collect all the books into one large setting tome, there will be a larger scale map. Finally, the Dragongrounds are more or less the area north of Audreyn's Wall from Nordvorn east.

In my concept the cleric does not just display his religious symbol, instead he is focusing Divine energy through his holy item in order to turn the undead. This requires fatigue and Divine energy reserve points to do. |
