Greyhawk

Then as you got into like 3.0 and some of these other systems, suddenly, like you said, well, the weapon quality, weapons made a big difference.

Of course, they started that in Greyhawk, so with different damage and different things.

So you couldn't carry.

Like you said, it would just be absurd.

At the end of the day, the Feywild at your table may look different than people's other interpretations of the Feywild.

You can go really in depth with how, uh, the Forgotten Realms handles the Feywild versus Greyhawk, which have, are, like, very similar, 'cause the Feywild is still, like, a conjoining thing between those two D&D properties.

But, like, there are tiny differences.

You know what I mean?

And I discovered this villain.

What I was trying to do was find more about Greyhawk.

Like, I was trying to look for more Greyhawk-adjacent topics to talk about to kind of continue our series.

And I really wanted one that spans, if I could, both Earth and...

Oh, good.

Straight, straight to enemies for sure.

But yeah, I was looking for some topic that covered or I guess touched both Oerth and Abortoral.

For those of you that are like, I don't really care about Greyhawk.

Yeah, it

sort of edged out Greyhawk, right? It just became like the thing.

Okay, I have something really interesting to talk about with how Forgotten Realms replaced Greyhawk.

If you want to get into that, I'm so excited to talk about that part.

Well, let's start with, like, the campaign setting concepts, right? We talked about the history of D&D.

Because Blackmoor is the first quote-unquote setting.

That was Dave Arneson's homebrew campaign that eventually was turned into a setting.

Then there's Greyhawk.

But when it comes to Create, You can literally use that with any RPG.

You can take an existing setting such as, and I'll just use like, I don't know, pick what's the current hotness in Dungeons and Dragons, like Greyhawk, I think, right? Is there a new thing? So you could take Greyhawk and say, great, here's Greyhawk as it is.

now I want to make a new city-state somewhere else here, and I'm going to use these rules, and all I have to do is set up a little bit of, like, what are some guidelines that I don't want to break, and then build onto it using the rules in Create, and you can absolutely do that.

You can also play in that setting directly with Discover if you wanted to, and most of the tools in Evolve really easily sort of dovetail into any RPG scenario as well I would say because you can add downtime sessions to any game and those downtime sessions could be things like determining like more information about relationships between npcs and pcs or it could be just like getting some really quick feedback information from the group that helps you think about like what's next or or maybe even in the moment if you if you have one of those moments like i do occasionally when i'm gming a game and i'm like And, you know, a character appears because the character must appear.

It was, it's called the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons WG5 and WG6 booklets.

So this is World of Greyhawk.

Now again, these are just modules.

One of them has like a chimp on the cover.
