Questions 3 and a Look Back at ‘Curse of the Dark Wind’

Posted on March 19, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This book tends to get lost in the shuffle at times. Curse of the Dark Wind didn’t introduce any new, long-standing characters. Part of this might have been because this was when the game started crumbling. So, I was struggling to move … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘The Compass Key’

Posted on March 12, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Legends of Windemere: The Compass Key was an odd book for me to write. In terms of the game, it covers half of one campaign and the entire one after. This meant the previous volume ended on a cliffhanger. I really … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Look Back at ‘Allure of the Gypsies’

Posted on February 27, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Prodigy of Rainbow Tower’

Posted on February 20, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Legends of Windemere: Prodigy of Rainbow Tower is the book that really fleshed out the world of Windemere. Luke Callindor and friends had to travel across the kingdom of Ralian, so I had to design the terrain. Cities, towns, rivers, … Continue reading →

Posted on April 25, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Posted on February 14, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz
