I might, but after I heard what he did with the last book of "His Dark Materials", his stuff fell to the bottom of a very long list of books I intend to read.trollsmythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895349218958093151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28751902.post-15511390890337848042009-09-22T06:49:40.962-05:002009-09-22T06:49:40.962-05:00@Pukako:

Don't rely on it; the Necromancer was infamous for his use of bloodmagic, and many human shamans of the more northern climes still practice it. <br /><br /><i>And now you've got me wondering just how planar the campaign(s) might get.</i> <br /><br />You've probably noticed a bit of the interconnectedness of the Planes in my themes. I'll be surprised if both campaigns don't eventually involve a bit of plane-hopping.<br /><br />And I'll be shocked if that doesn't involve at least one trip to Tartarus.trollsmythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01895349218958093151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28751902.post-75527586162949431402009-09-11T20:34:20.352-05:002009-09-11T20:34:20.352-05:00People think it's sshian because of the carvin...People think it's sshian because of the carvings?
