think the story of Vanod will be worthy adding to tvtropes?

Really kewl.  I loved the Bilbo part.  What exactly were the world gen parameters for this?

Morul, Cacame, and Vanod. A dwarf, an elf and a human.

I can already see them in this scene, with exploding goblin gore in the background   8)

If you guys want 100% good/evil world on your own, just put maximum amount of "good/evil in the small/medium/large region" in advanced world gen.

Tried just putting max evil...1400 rejected worlds and counting.  Probably need to add good too, huh?

No, you need to put good at zero.

And put "No" to "Playable civilizations required".

Why? On evil biomes, only goblins can live, and in good biomes only elves can live. Which means no dwarfs. Not sure about kobolds. Anyway, it means that you can only play as human outsider, unless you play 100% in which case you can play with elves.

Though, no matter what you do, its unlikely that you will create awesomeness that is one tinier than pocketworld evil island that is only land in whole large world with all other areas being sea.

You inspired me to try playing as an outsider on a regular world. I came to the conclusion that playing without a huge warband (preferably one companion to avoid bogeys) actually makes the game much more fun :).

Pity that my companion died serving as a pincushion for kobold bowmen. He bled out while I was sleeping so bogeys appeared. I thought I could lose them by crossing a river, so I jumped down a cliff and POW! I classify this as an epic fail - the river was there, but it was bloody frozen...  :D. At least my character died immediately...

The story and the art are Überawesome.

i think the fact that it is a large map with a less than pocket sized island on it is why the island has such high populations of trolls and whatnot, instead of being just about anywhere other then that island they are forced to be on the island, which is prolly why he got ambushed by 20+ trolls even without companions.

"Engraved on the wall is a masterful depiction of a human by Logrin.  The artwork relates to Xotano Beastblood The Everseeing Dwelling of Clouds the human vampire recruiting some new human shields companions after his encounter with Ral Firewealthy the Warm Flicker the dragon, during which his face was melted off."

300 human/elf/dwarf/goblin/kobold bodies 20 random animal/fish/bird bodies and 3 dragon bodies all in one backpack. fun stuff.

I think what we really need to see is a picture of Vanod shaking Bilbo around by the throat.

Poor elephant monster! We hardly knew ye. Bet he tasted good though. And JUST as he was settling down for a nice dinner of +toad paste+ on toast.

The most awesome thing is that he managed to survive what I think would be too much for a regular adventurer and did that naked. I imagine that either he will finally succumb to some giant beastie or, more probably, he will exterminate every single living (and undead) being on the island :). That would be an epic achievement!
