| Grizzly bear can be proxied by either the Black Bear or Dire Bear (depending on what size it is).
Small scorpions would be extra sweet. Yolchlol Demon seems like it'd be likely to show up in BW or UH
How about a review of the mod? It'd be nice to see some feedback before picking it up. | |

But Id prefer a Grizzly/Brown Bear mini someday...The Dire Bear may use the same size base but its to bicg for a regular Brown Bear. | |

| Well Z its a Forgotten Realms module
It takes place in the Yuirwood (in the east)where the rare star elf race live. The party has too use the stone menhirs (stone ancient portal) too recuse a noble but it traps them in a demi plane known as Sildeyuir (Night Realm) where they have too battle their way back too the realms by defeating an evil Nilshai sorcerer and a corrupted star elf and his undead army.
I'm only part through reading it (as I'm not using it till after RHOD) but I find its a great adventure for east of the realms which I find is sometimes ignored. | |

I looked through it yesterday at Borders and was kinda let down. Matt's July preview said the following:September: The Twilight Tomb  This is a 160-page adventure designed to challenge a quartet of 3rd-level characters who call the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting"home." Like all of the adventure-type products, I won't go into much, if any, detail about what's inside, but I'm told that it delves into the culture of star elves more so than anything else we've done.
The bolding is mine. Leafing through I didn't see much detail about the culture of the star elves at all. Unapproachable East gave me more. Is there more to it than my quick glance afforded me? You don't have to give spoilers if you don't want to.

| Hey CC,
Well its 31 pages not 160 so thats maybe where the info in the problem lies.
There isn't much overall info on the star elves that you can't find in Unapproachable East but it does deal more on the plane of Sildeyuir that we didn't know much about.Thats a little bit where the new info lies. | |

| An adventure that deals with The Unnaproachable East is very cool.
For ten bucks just pick it up.
We collect minis for cryin out loud...One stinking booster is over $10. Its not really a hard financial decision.  | |

I liked it as a $10 adventure, and I guess a lot can change in 2 months. Unapprochable East is still one of my favorites, so when the birthday rolls around in October, I'll probably pick it up. | |

| | Does the Girallon Zombie carrying the Brain in a Jar remind you of a certain pair of villians from DC Comic Books or is it just me? | |

| | Well I've put off all book purchases including RPG book for the time being since I might be moving in the next few months (no need to create more items to pack.) But this is one book I might have to buy now. Must show WotC the importance of producing adventures! | |

Yes. I just saw them on the Teen Titans cartoon the other day! I wonder if the designers did that on purpose... | |

| Nilshai are CR 7 without any sorcerer levels. Does it really end with a
fight against a nilshai sorcerer, or do you just mean a regular nilshai?

It's deja vu all over again. | |
