The Mask and Mirror

A website for the D&D Greyhawk campaign setting

"Would you like my mask
Would you like my mirror
cries the man in the shadowing hood.
you can look at yourself
you can look at each other
or you can look at the face of your God." ~from "Marrakesh Night Market"
by Loreena McKennitt
 
 


 







Honor, chivalry, valor, courage, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. These are the hallmarks of the Greyhawk campaign setting. I've only recently discovered the world of Oerth, but I was immediately captivated by its power. The source material paints an amazing picture of the world and its inhabitants. I could picture myself being there, something I couldn't do in other game worlds. Somehow, when playing Forgotten Realms for example, I knew I was entering a world that could only exist in a movie. The world of Oerth, though, gave me a fantasy world with just enough reality to make me feel at home.

I was suprised by how few Greyhawk world sites are out here. I thought building one of my own was the least I could do. Enjoy.

Update 5/11/02: School's out for summer! And we'e all moved in to our summer home. The hard work of moving everything here from the 'Berg site is done. Now all that's left is to get started on some new material.
