    Rappan Athuk Issues

    I've been reading the later chapters in the FGU 5e release (book) and some things seem to be missing.
    For example Appendix A: Bestiary, The Beasts of Rappan Athuk gives a brief description what should be in that chapter and nothing else. There are no creatures mentioned.
    The arrow for the next page goes to Appendix B: Game Master's Guide.
    This chapter tells us the magic items not in the SRD and found in the adventure are all described here and following that is a bunch of diseases found in Rappan Athuk, but there are no diseases described.
    The next chapter Appendix C: Player’s Guide the introduction is the same as the Game Master's Guide regarding magic items and diseases, then tells us it will list Spells, which it does.

    It seems ... incomplete? If I'm wrong, I apologize. Its a masterpiece as is, but if there is more to this, can it be updated please?

    The Items will most likely be under Items rather than in the Reference Manual.
    The Creatures will most likely be under NPCs rather than in the Reference Manual.

    No idea about diseases.

    At the end of Appendix A: Bestiary, the last paragraph states: "See the NPCs section as all creatures have been converted for Fantasy Grounds use and can this be searched for accordingly." This is what @damned referred to - click on the "NPCS" button in the right desktop sidebar to access the NPC records.

    For Appendices B and C the dev will need to address the disease omission and incorrect text.

    Hi NGP_Greegan,

    Thanks for letting me know. Like Trenloe stated as well as Damned, the NPCs were not listed as a full spread as the module is very large at it is and needed to keep that in mind. I did settle on a compromise and updated it to be in alphabetical order and listed the NPC as links.

    With the Gamemaster Appendix I did the same I removed all the text and listed the items as a links and added the missing Diseases.

    The last appendix just lists the new spells and ends with the next being the legal text.

    Thank you for calling it a masterpiece, this endeavor took me from March of 2020 and I finished it November 2022...I've learned quite a bit about Fantasy Grounds and it's vastly improved as well.

    Well to keep from being long winded. I've made the updates and I've included a couple of screen captures for how the new Appendices will look now and a capture of the RA pdf of that section for comparisonScreenshot 2025-01-25 235054.jpgScreenshot 2025-01-25 235225.jpgScreenshot 2025-01-25 235303.jpgScreenshot 2025-01-25 235333.jpgCapture of Rappan Athuk PDF.jpg.

    You are correct about the NPCs/creatures. The diseases I created as NPCs, not quite sure how to write them as conditions/effects. I may revisit at later time though...
