Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘The Merchant of Nevra Coil’

This is the 8th volume of Legends of Windemere.  The funny thing is how this book was not really planned and came about because I needed something to happen to make volume 9 work.  The Merchant of Nevra Coil ended up solving … Continue reading

Questions 3 and a Look Back at ‘Sleeper of the Wildwood Fugue’

Sleeper of the Wildwood Fugue had a lot going on.  The big thing was introducing Dariana, who was the final champion.  I was going to make her origins a big reveal later, but realized that it might be more interesting to … Continue reading

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

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’

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 Looking Back at ‘Family of the Tri-Rune’

This is the fourth volume of Legends of Windemere and one where I felt like I had to do a lot of clean up.  Not in terms of handling sloppy writing, but I had to make a few plot points come … Continue reading

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

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

Revisiting Origins: Baron Arthuru Kernaghan

(Realized I never did an early origin post for the Baron.  It was just this one right before I released the final volume.  Looking it over, I don’t think I would have changed anything.  There was the temptation to have … Continue reading

Revisiting Origins: Mab the Dark Mistress

Mab is the only character from War of Nytefall who has already been introduced to readers.  She appeared in Legends of Windemere: The Mercenary Prince and kind of helped Delvin.  This showed an older, more mature, not as friendly version of this … Continue reading
