@newbiedm: Sounds like a fun take on the Raven Queen. I think one of the reasons I like her so much is that she can be interpreted in so many different ways, and still work well for the campaign in question.

I plan to base my campaign around the Raven Queen. My world came out of a magically induced ice age 500 years ago, and the Raven Queen is not happy about the fact that the world didn’t perish “as it was supposed to”, so she send her agents, the Shadar-Kai return to the world to finish what was begun.

But in reality, the Raven Queen is scared about something else, and is using this to get her way… she is scared about the rise in power of Lord Orcus, who wants to take her place… So eventually she’ll bargain with the PC’s… destroy Orcus, and your world gets spared certain destruction.

I’m doing it so that when a God gets a certain whim or desire, other gods don’t interfere, and let fate play itself out…

There's been some concern over at the RPG Bloggers google group that the author's work is being submitted without their consent - so I just want to clarify: Nothing will be published in Open Game Table unless the author releases the material for inclusion in the Anthology. This post was simply submitted for consideration; which is the first step towards identifying the best in RPG blogging. Let me know if you have any questions over at the The Core Mechanic or in the OPEN GAME TABLE google group. I hope that this clears up any confusion you may have.

I’m submitting this to
OPEN GAME TABLE
for consideration because, its just another shining example of talented work! As I go through my google reader “starred” list – this post is one of them – and I’ve submitted the whole series in fact because I just enjoyed it so much.

Thank you; I’m glad you enjoyed it. Mythology is something of a hobby of mine, so I pull a lot of campaign material from it.

This is simply a fantastic piece of work. Right now – I’m having a hard time thinking of another blog entry from another blog that is this good. THANK YOU. For some reason, this post really struck a (good) chord. /applause
