Hi Dustin,
I have a question about Sahaugin/Sar-aigu - whenever you can get to it.
Basically I find it really curious that Sar-aigu are prominently featured and even renamed in ZG products. Obviously this wasn't necessary. You could have just made up a new monster or whatever. So there seems to be some reason Sahaugin were chosen. I've long speculated that while the name and some of the characteristics were created by Steve Marsh, the original entry in Supplement II Blackmoor represents a mash-up by Tim Kask of Marsh's Sahaugin write up and another similar type of monster written by Dave Arneson. Maybe that is why you guys used them?
Just wondering if you have any thoughts or insights on this.
