Oh very nice! I am anticipating this new boxed set! Our table has been utilizing the old Complete Psionicist HB for integrating psionics into the game.

Run it as its own world as is. Mostly RAW, we deviate a little on some rules,

How do we pronounce this?
Krim with a short I and silent r at the end? Krimm-ER, enunciating the R at the end and still using a short I vowel?
Or Kream, Kream-ER?

By Crom!

So, any updates on a time frame?

I was thinking about this supplement coming out and was totally stoked about it. It’s like being a teenager again and waiting for a new AD&D boxed set coming out!

The difference back then compared to now is that there were no internet and forums that you could bug the creators about products!

That's one possible interpretation. I'd be inclined to rule that a failed SV means the character is entangled for the duration of the spell, so treated as prone for the duration. In other words: it's a deadly spell, especially as it's only 1st level.

Ah, interesting, yes that make's it quite deadly!

I was thinking targets would have to roll a save every round for the whole turn.

Generally you roll a SV once, unless it's stated otherwise. And while deadly under the right circumstances, there is the requirement for some vegetation to be in the area of effect to work at all.

Noted, I like it. Makes low level druids quite effective.

So, if a target fails its save  and is entangled is that considered prone until a save is passed?

I’m fixing to play a paladin. One of the party members is a neutral necromancer. Is there an issue with a paladin working with someone who practices the necromantic arts?

I don’t feel that there is since the character in question isn’t necessarily evil but does practice a questionable form of magic.

Thought and opines?

I use the 2E screen with no problems.

I have been playing and running Hyperborea 3E since January 2023.  Excellent game for anyone new but particularly if you came from 1 and 2E Ad&d, it is a joy!

I imagined the same. But having a necklace or some such with several runes on it. That made me laugh and think of a kid with a charm bracelet and scrambling to find the right rune in an dangerous dynamic situation.

So, is it just a verbal poem to release the magic of runes once prepared?

Does that take a whole round or can you release it with a verbal and attack?
