Troll Lord Games

<t>I will chime in with the whichever works best for Troll Lord Games crowd. I can wrap a book in contact paper myself and go from there.<br/> <br/> After seeing the infamous rust monster article from WOTC, whatever it takes to promote Castles & Crusades and help them save some money works for m...

<t>I have had shadowy gnomes in my Palladium Fantasy game for several years (although I don't play that system anymore) that are fairly close to the Fiend Folio's dark creepers.
