Perilous Lands -- where does everyone play?

[Daniel Newport]

Hi.  Sorry it took so long for me to reply but I've been ill along with my
3 kids and husband so I've had very little time for anything else.
Well, anyway, I've run games in Marentia, Donaora and am currently running
one centered in Caldo.  I've also run one in Katai and Lemasa before.  That
one was quite fun as magic is not allowed in Katai and our characters had
to be very careful.  Another campaign was in Fomoria and I also had one in
Valheim.  All of these places are good if you like a little variety and
flavor to your campaigns.  I've had characters from all over Perilious
Lands and any country can be fun to play in especially if you take into
account local customs.
The game I have going right now has been a lot of fun.  Another country to
be careful in is Dirllar as doing magic there can get you killed outright
by locals.  One of the characters in my current game found that out the
hard way - he didn't die but he hurt a lot!
My current campaign has 2 faerries, an elf, a dwarf and 3 humans in it.  We
are in Caldo but plan on going to the Kingdom of Mab and killing Mab if we
can.  We tried once before but got sidetracked when we had to kill an Elder
dragon.  The dragon got a few party members so we had to make up some new
characters before we can go back.  We're going to try to go by sea this
time and see if that won't be easier (yeah, right!).
Well, we'll see how it goes next session.  Talk you later.  Bye.  Yvonne
