Yeah, so this is kind of the red-headed stepchild of Ravnloft 3rd Edition. It has some pretty nice tidbits in it: I liked a few of the prestige classes and most of the feats. However a lot of what is presented here comes off hammy and two-fisted, and there are some widgets in here guaranteed to unballance your game. There's a lot of good stuff here on secret societies and what not, but with the exception of the Fraternity of Shadows (which I think was covered already in Van Richten's Arsenal, Vol 1.) it's all retreds of 2nd Edition stuff. Fanboys, if you wand good 2nd Edition material, go on eBay and spend the scheckles to buy the source material. Why settle for two pages of Carnival when you could own the whole thing (and a much better supplement THAT is).

Use with caution, fanboy. ( )
