Blackmoor in the year 500

[Havard]

Woof! Nice list, my friend! Thank you!

I think it wouldn't take much effort to make this a playable setting, even with the tools that we already we have (i. e. your antediluvian map, etc.).

Yep. This may also inspire me to revise and improve that map given the feedback I got in that thread. Antediluvian is a cool word btw

For a BM Town campaign, I'd probably focus on the Id cult, and on the relative closeness to the Elven realm. (In "Tales from the Old Land", I think I kind of hinted at how the relationship could have looked.)

Cool, so pre destruction of Id then?
Yes, the relationship between elves and Men seems like a likely theme for such a campaign.

As in, for example, the Afridhi themselves might not be there, but perhaps some first traces of them...

Certainly. I believe I have hinted at some older darkness attacking the Vales in this era in my Vales Campaign... :twisted:

Then again, there are many other evils to pick from in this time. The Temple of Id should be the most obvious candidate as villains especially if the campaign is set prior to the destruction of that Order. Even after the Temple is destroyed, the cultists could be scattered and attempting to rebuild their organization. An entire campaign could be built around that.

Another note:
In my Rulers of Blackmor thread, I have suggested the Dog Duke (see FFC) as one of the rulers around the year 500. I have a writeup of him and his adventures here. This also sheds some light on how I see the elf human relationship of the era.
