A Walk Through the Planes – Part 87: The Lich-Queen’s Beloved
SeanIn the context of today’s direct competition between Wizards of the Coast and Paizo, it can be weird to remember just how linked the two companies once were. Not only was Paizo made up…
A Walk Through the Planes – Part 86: Humor & Hellspawn
SeanJust a month from our last planar Dragon article, we already have another pair to check out in issue #306 (April 2003), the “Humor & Hellspawn” issue. Not that either of these articles have…
A Walk Through the Planes – Part 85: Cities of the Planes: N’Gati
SeanAs of third edition D&D, the Astral Plane was the only truly unique location of the multiverse in terms of time and space. Ok, maybe some demiplanes had their own weird business going on,…

SeanIt’s been a bit since we’ve had one of these write-ups where I’m not quite sure I should even be covering the subject, but occasionally it’s nice to read something short for a change…
