Is there any word whatsoever on what exists on Toril’s version of Antarctica? You’d think Auril would enjoy having an entire landmass that fits her modus operandi spot on. |

Great Reader Karsus,
Nice. Yeah, I really like the idea of lucid dreaming with substances in addition to magic as it has this really uncontrolled element to it that adds some subjective, unknown, danger to the situation. Kind of cool!
Best regards,

-That's pretty much what it is. I want to say it was a specifically an opioid analogue to some degree when originally envisioned, but any psychotropic would work. Lucid Dreaming was supposed to be an important game mechanic and substances to increase the effectiveness of it was what that and Dreamstones and whatever else was for. |

I hear you there. I love Planescape myself. Not particularly knowledgeable in that arena, but great stuff. I almost wish they'd bring it back, but then, I know that WotC would likely screw it up, so better to leave it be.

I happen to be a diehard Planescape fan (see my avatar, lol). I do like the notion of distilled elements from the Elemental planes - fundamental building blocks of the universe, leakages and interactions through elemental vortices, all of that. Alchemy with raw elements can produce all sorts of interesting items. I'm less enthused about the notion of distilled elements from demiplanes - things which can only manifest in somewhat tangible forms due to the peculiar intrinsic properties of these cosmic half-places, things sustained by abstracts which don't always exist anywhere else in the D&D cosmos.
Later planeslore does contain all sorts of wonderful ideas. And it's a nearly-infinite setting filled with all sorts of inexplicable weirdness. I'm just of the opinion that substances like oneirium are interesting novelties yet would be uncompelling additions to the wider setting. And I dislike the notion of a "demiplane of dreams" since it introduces other convolutions ... questions like whether or not deities and powers can dream, whether or not "dead" or "dormant" gods might dream, whether or not they are captured by this place when they dream, etc ... I'd hate to have a demiplane inhabited by Karsus without establishing a very good reason consistent to all other planeslore. |

I hear you there. That is pretty much how I would go about it as well. It can add some spice, but the rarity of it, and difficulty procuring it can be the adventure itself.

A "true cold" area of the paraplane is a region in which more than just water or flesh can freeze. A substance, energy, word, thought or even a concept like "goodness" or "nearness" can freeze solid, taking on the form of a strange ice crystal. While frozen, the item, thought or whatever it is has no power or meaning.
Some outsiders enjoy scouring the true cold areas of Ice for frozen ideas, which they take back with them. Once removed from the frigid temperatures of the paraplane, the prizes thaw, usually within a specially prepared container. Then, they might be used somehow to power a magical item or an esoteric scheme, or simply sold for profit. I've heard that Sigil's Great Bazaar offers anything a buyer might want, but I'll wager that even some of the most jaded planars are surprised to find distilled "chaos", bottled "sadness" or liquid "left" for sale.

Senior Scribe Delnyn,
That is a really great question. I went and checked the Epic Level Handbook to reread about the Dream Larva again, and it just says that it comes from the dreams. I would imagine that would mean it is coming from the Plane of Dreams. However, I think oneirium (correct spelling) just like dreamstones would just make it to where you would be able to be detected by dream larva, just as much as anything. I don't think it would specifically attract attention though, at least from my readings.
Best regards,

Yeah, we get "hints" of "dream magic" all over the place (I think the article you're talking about might have been something like the Oineromage or something... I barely remember it, but I do remember an article). But, we don't have any good resources that I know of. Part of me would like to link dream magic and psionics (as in psionics is a power someone uses almost like they're in a "waking dream"... they take their mind to a different state to effect reality....). At the same time, many telepathic disciplines also represent themselves as making one "hyper alert", so maybe its only certain styles of psionics. Illusion also fits well with dream magic, and to another degree enchantment. But I don't think anything we've seen really gets down to a nitty gritty of what it is and how exactly its different, and how it might be a fully fledged school like evocation, etc... |

Ah, I was more curious if the date corresponded to any interest from around here. Honestly, I don't want to see australia on Toril, but I wouldn't mind some of its ideas discussed and possibly imported. That's why my interested in the magic topics mentioned by others. Australia has some studies of dream magic, and since Abeir does as well, it might help fit some pieces. |

As far as Wombats are concerned two talking wombats (awakened maybe?) named Bert and Lugg featured heavily in the Ring of Winter and claimed to hail from an island of talking wombats. |

Ka’Narlist used to experiment on these altering their bodies and I believed at some point claimed to have created the kobold from them - something which has since been contradicted dozens of times with all of their dragon connections. IMHO kodingobolds (which we’re also extinct not long after) would make an excellent explanation for the early edition kobolds which were dog faced. |
| Lord Karsus |
Posted - 15 Nov 2020 : 16:57:32
Here's what I have for flora. I've got nothing for fauna lol:
Baji Foam Algae
Baji foam algae is a type of algae that grows in the Waatikantri Swamp and in certain parts of the Mlimli Mudlands. Like normal algae, this type is greenish-yellow in color, and grows on standing water. Unlike normal algae, baji foam algae contains within it trace amounts of onierium, and when enough is extracted, can be synthesized into a usable form.
Wapa-Yandi Plant
The wapa-yandi plant mainly grows on the coastlines of Osse, across the island continent. The plant itself is a small shrub, reaching a maximum height of two feet or so, and a maximum width of about the same size. The flowers of the wapa-yandi plant grow from the tips of each branch. The flowers are a pastel yellow color, and are very small, about the size of a thumbnail. The small amount of pollen that these flowers produce contain trace amounts of onierium, and when enough is extracted, can be synthesized into a usable form.
Gariguu Plant
The gariguu plant is a plant that grows in large clusters across Osse, primarily near bodies of water, where they can get a large amount of water. The plant grows very tall, reaching heights of six or seven feet, while, at the same time, it is very thin, with a width of only a foot or so. The plant reminds me very much of sugarcane, in it’s appearance. The outer layers of the plant’s stalk are shaved off, because they contain trace amounts of onierium, and when enough is extracted, can be synthesize into a usable form.
Jamba Plant
The jamba plant is a fruit-bearing tree that grows all over Osse, primarily on the plains. The tree grows about five or six feet in height, one or two feet in thickness, and resembles somewhat a small, thick willow tree, because it tapers into various, umbrella-like branches that hang down. The fruits that the tree puts out resemble small gourds, because they are orange in color, and are fairly similar to gourds in terms of shape and thickness. Inside, the flesh of the fruit is red, and is quite juicy and sweet.
Dreamstone
Dreamstone is some kind of magical stone that is found primarily in the Tolyiwandi Mountains. While I was not able to see the rock myself, I am told that it grows in large clusters, and is very similar looking to purple crystal. Dreamstones have some kind of connection to the Plane of Dreams, and are the reason that the Dream Dwarves came to Osse centuries ago. The stone is used simply, apparently, by touching it, and is not imbibed or consumed in any way by the user.
Oneirium
Oneirium is a substance that, like Dreamstones, help those who possess it enter into the Plane of Dreams. Oneirium, unlike Dreamstones, is a substance that must be imbibed or consumed for its effects to be felt. It is a sticky, gooey substance extracted from a few plants that grow naturally across Osse. When consumed, the effects of Oneirium manifest, and the user slowly drifts into the world of dreams. Most commonly, a dab of the substance is added into pipe weed, and smoked. The amount used directly influences how strong its effects are. More…“enterprising” individuals chew on the sticky substance directly in their mouths, eliciting a very strong effect.
-Kodingobold are a tauric kobold/dingo creature (similar to wemic) that were introduced by Elaine Cunningham in her early Elven writings. Might be natural creatures, might be creatures that were created by Ka'Narlist (or some other powerful magician from way back when). "They were nasty, odorous, rat-tailed creatures-ugly things with four-footed, doglike bodies that were topped with scrawny humanoid torsos and sly, bug-eyed faces. Gray of skin and of soul, they seemed to possess neither conscience nor ambition. Kodingobolds lived solely on whatever they could steal. They were cowards who fought only if they greatly outmassed and outnumbered their prey. And they had a particularly fondness for the flesh of young wemics. In years past, many an adventurous and wandering wemic cub had fallen prey to the disorderly packs of kodingobolds that ranged the savannah." |

If you could find it, I'd be interested in reading it. The ideas that were popping in my head were things like a place where giants pretty much still rule (but picturing more like the "giants" in the avatar ... blue people... movie) and humans live in the fringes, etc.. maybe dinosaurs and draconic type beings (not true dragons, but like wyverns, drakes, giant crocodiles, etc...) getting hunted like we would hunt a deer, etc...
I'd love to read that stuff too. I am extremely happy that at least so far, WotC hasn't taken those continents and tried to do anything with them to enter it into lore/canon. They need to stay away from things more often than not it seems like these days.

Ok, so it sounds like you want to do with Osse a lot of what I want to do with the idea of nyama-nummo for Katashaka. Which, given that I actually do have a linkage I was writing up between those two continents in fact it could work well. I actually made a bit of a story that basically the humans of Katashaka got sent to Abeir, and they ended up on Osse. Later Osse got transferred to Toril, kind of like what happened with the spellplague. So, basically, Osse is stolen land. |

There was a video game in the 90s called Primal Rage where mankind had been relegated to barbaric and savage people who worshipped titanic beasts (kaiju of a sort). Dragon magazine even statted out a couple of the monsters which included a giant icy King Kong wannabe, some dinosaurs and a serpent-dinosaur creature known as Vertigo.
If I were ever to head to this southern continent that’s exactly what I’d put there. |

I don't recall talking much about Osse on the old WotC forums. I'm pretty sure most of my discussion was here on Candlekeep in the perennial threads on it. I like to fill Osse with fantasy versions of Australiana, of course, such as Aboriginal culture, wars against elemental fire and flood, and giant animal statue shrines that come to life. :D

There might even be some swapping in Osse and large amounts of loss at the same time such that maybe there's something there, but not even remotely the same size/shape. If this were done, we'd be much closer to having the whole world having at least some kind of definition. Now, I don't PREFER this to happen (because it means more large scale map changes), but honestly I don't even remotely have any ideas for realistically fleshing out Osse other than some ideas for some islands off the northeast coast as human islander cultures.
