The Vizier’s Views: The Isle of Dread
Once more, The Martian Vizier appears with his views to share, as he has before…. The Dying Sea of Mars is not so vast as to give Koraz-hu, the Martian Vizier, a true appreciation of the scope such bodies can reach on other worlds. Nor is his Mars a place of fecund life, steaming jungles, or terrible monsters which lurk in half-drowned temples. The Mars which he inhabits had become hostile to such teeming creatures as had once...
The Vizier’s Views: Fifth Edition Fantasy #15 – The Drowning Caverns of the Fish God
Once more, The Martian Vizier appears with his views to share, as he has before…. When Koraz-Hu, the Grand Vizier of Mars, was next able to sit at the frigid table of Omolo the Impassive, the Triumph of the Martian Warlord had long passed. The Vizier knew that Omolo’s people sometimes used the astralnet to visit cold, high places on the Earth. Sometimes, in decades past, they had even gone so far as to visit the blue planet in...
The Vizier’s Views: Mystery Under the Monastery
Once more, The Martian Vizier appears with his views to share, as he has before…. Spaces beneath the earth extend in three dimensions. This is well known to the denizens of other worlds as well as to our own. In some worlds, use of these spaces exceeds our own, and the inhabitants frown upon our rather flat dungeon designs. When his astral form sat in the cavern of Omolo the Impassive one evening, he was therefore pleased to...
The Vizier’s Views: The Forgotten Hive
Once more, The Martian Vizier appears with his views to share, as he has several times before…. Gaming is not always face-to-face on Earth. So too does gaming take many shapes on various worlds we know but little of. The astralnet has been known far longer than role-playing games among the higher civilizations of the multiverse, but tireless advocates of gaming, such as the Martian Vizier, have turned it to that purpose. With...
The Vizier’s Views: Tales From the Magician’s Skull #2
Once more, The Martian Vizier appears with his views to share, as he has several times before…. The Great Martian Vizier Koraz-hu had no game that night, for, even with his vast powers and estates, the needs of the Martian Warlord sometimes required his personal attention. In this case, one of the lesser Stone Princes – silicate beings far older than Koraz-hu himself – sought to create trouble along the western edge of the Dying...
The Vizier’s Views: The Queen of Elfland’s Son
It has been many long years since the Martian Vizier last walked the green fields of Earth. For him, the Lands that We Know are an exotic country. His library is vast, and it contains many works that cross into Appendix N as it had been compiled by Gary Gygax. He reads Lord Dunsany like we read Edgar Rice Burroughs, not with a wistful and dreamlike longing for an imaginary past, but with a thrill of high adventure on an alien world....
The Vizier’s Views: Dungeon Alphabet 4th Printing
“They are dungeons, yes,” said the Martian Vizier, “but not like those of Your Exalted Highness. Far from being oubliettes to keep those best forgotten, they are places wherein memories of adventure are created and stored.” The Warlord’s frown was one of perplexity rather than displeasure. They had long known each other, these two, and each considered the other a true companion against the adversities of far-sighted Fate. “And this...
