Further notes on the 1971 Great Kingdom Map, based on a copy located by Dave Megarry. Thanks to Daniel Boggs for giving me this opportunity. This map will soon be appearing on the Secrets of Blackmoor FB page. #quagkeep

Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe Hither Hills in Quag Keep was in reference to a land where half-elves live (and maybe other half-blood characters). It seemed to be spoken of with some contempt from the elf in the main party, so maybe it is a place of exile?
ReplyDeleteTony Rowe My impression on re-reading that part is that the elf's disdain was due to the people of that region being half-elves.
ReplyDeleteZach H, I may be reading too much into it, but what might cause a group of half-bloods to live in a place apart from other communities? Exile is probably the wrong word, I should say segregation. It is unclear if humans feel the same way about half-elves that elves do.
ReplyDeleteAll the characters in quag keep seemed to barely tolerate each other.
