Dream Realms

[smiorgan]

Did anyone pick up "Dream Realms" for Elric? Is it good?
Does it add much to what was already in "Magic of the Young Kingdoms"?
Does it contain nifty scenario hooks or campaign ideas?

Mmm... I guess nobody got it...

Its a worthy enough addition to the range, though a tad slim.
It also addresses the use of Dream couches and has nice inclusions worthy of developing such as souless Melnibonean's.
Definately useful, though and it includes a scenario. (I think I would prefer to tailor a dream adventure of my own to a campaign, though I would use the articals and parts of the scenario itself. )
The main source material used from MM is 'The Fortress of the Pearl', 'and the trilogy of novels which ended with White Wolf's Son. I thought the inclusion of details from the Elric the Making of a Sorceror comic mini-series would have developed the section on dream couches.
Likewise 'The Roaming Forest' short story.

It seems enough interesting.

Thanks a lot!

I have it as well but family life means that I have not got to dig into it as deeply as I would like.
The scenario,from a brief glimpse, seems good and their are stats for a selection of new characters- White Crow,Alnec Kreb,Oone and Klosterheim to name but a few.
There does seem to be a little carry over from previous books in the range-but whether any is direct cut and paste, I cannot confirm.
That said, it is another worthy addition to the line.(Long may it continue!)
