Eh.
There is the Church of Law, with many saints. Some call it the Church of the One True God but all shrines are dedicated to a saint. St. Ygg is popular as is St. Cuthbert. Also St. Ahleena. St Clewd is mostly forgotten. Old gods such as Crom, Arcantra and Silvanus are paid respects, but they have no church. The Death gods Orcus and his sister Set are worshipped in secret or far from Lawful society. There are other less known Chaos Cults as well, such as Khorne and Slaanesh.

ReplyDeleteWHERE is the Fount of Law? There's no index in the book, and I've flipped throgh the first 100+ entries with no dice...it's referenced over and over again that the players will need it but...no indication where it is. Is it even in Barrowmaze?
ReplyDeleteRoom 47D. It's buried deep. Even sorta hidden on the map be the book's gutter.
ReplyDeleteIt would not be wrong to offer some sort of augury to direct a group into the twisting catacombs in the south of the map.
There's a lot of crucial bits and pieces in the Barrowmaze books that are not made immediately obvious. The author seems to see this as a feature. I've done some pretty thorough highlighter work to pick out the necessaries.
