Why is his face blank and featureless? Why is he a skinny toothless albino?

Considering the dungeon is full of other freaks, why does he wear this mask?

Where did he come from? Did he ever have a name? Who is the man behind the mask?

Anybody come up with an interesting backstory?


In your game-world, what are you calling this band? Do they have a fancy "adventurer-company" style title that they use for their group, or are they just an "unnamed" trio of traveling companions?


Looking at the supplied picture of the blue lantern, er, indigo lantern, got me thinking. Indigo and blue are both pretty much the same color. When the PCs look the faded fresco in room 6, would they even notice such a subtle difference? How to describe it?

DM: "Clockwise, the colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet"
Player: "What's indigo?"
DM: "Somewhere between purple and blue."
Player: "But that's violet."
DM: "Uh, this violet is more purplish, it's a purplish-bluish-purple. The indigo lantern is more bluish, it's bluish-purplish-blue."
Player: "So what type of blue is the blue lantern?"
DM: "Bluish-bluish-blue."


Carter's Coaches - Destination Chart (pg61, Diamond Lake Backdrop, #124)

"Free City 3 days East" -- I'm pretty sure that should be west.
"Blackstone 1 day East" -- I think that supposed to be west too.

The others seem correct, Elmshire is indeed north (Nyr Dyv shoreline) and Blackwall Keep is indeed southeast (Mistmarsh shoreline).

Or were the directions altered to fit non-Greyhawk campaigns?
