And "Sean of the Seven Hostages" - does he have a distant cousin named Niall?

Yes, but in true alliterative fashion, Niall had Nine Hostages There will be more nods to the Hill of Tara in future modules!

<r>Hi everyone and thanks for the comments. I hope you enjoy playing the adventure - we had a hoot during playtesting.<br/> <br/> I'm going to be putting out a few freebie extras for the module: a larger-scale wilderness map covering a wider area, and a set of pregenerated characters. We are making ...

<t>It's been a long journey but I'm really pleased with the result. All the guys at BHP are really professional. I hope you enjoy it!<br/> <br/> The most controversial argument in the editing team was whether one of the critters should be classified as 'Animal' or 'Vermin'. You'll have to buy the mo...

Vermin Monster Type / M&T 3rd printing

<t>Hi, sorry this is a bit of a technical question, but it came up as part of the proofreading process for The Secret of Ronan Skerry:<br/> <br/> In M&T 2nd printing, monster types (p.5) lists 'Vermin' as including insects and arachnids. However, I can't see that any monster is listed as 'Vermin...

<t>Thanks for the pointers everyone.<br/> <br/> I would prefer to use an existing critter rather than waste space in the "new monsters" section of the module creating another Bullywug-variant with yet another name, especially as there seems to be a proliferation of Bullywug-variants already. Is ther...

<t>Yes, now that I look into this, there have been various other Bullywug conversions. Points of Light (Goodman Games/system neutral) had "boglings". S&W has Ranine. It would be nice if I could use these monsters without contributing Yet Another Name.<br/> <br/> What about those Wuggs? Was Verda...

The unfortunate Bullywug - a question about IP

<t>Sorry, another question about Castle Zagyg IP. This time about the new monsters in Appendix C. Who owns the monsters/stat blocks and is it possible to re-use them in other (published, for profit) adventures?<br/> <br/> I got thinking about this as I wanted a Bullywug-type monster for a new module...
