What does she mean when she says the following? “He travels in your breath, on your words, in the rustle of your hair in the breeze. You are not possessed. Don’t believe the voices in your ears. Believe only the voice in your head. You have no torches. You’ll go blind. You’ll die of thirst, but...

Okay. So my players did something that completely surprised me. They just got the Arc of Reida and have Kasvarina and are roaming around for memories. The first place the decided to go was Seobriga where they met with old NPC's including Melissa Amerie. This is where they did what I didnt...

Hello! We are quickly coming up to where the constables are going to be going undercover at the convocation. Now i cant find where this is located in the book but i am curious what solutions other DM's have come up with. There are 7 possible choices for OB Officers, however my group only has 3...

Hello all, My group just finished act 2 of Revelations from the Mouth of a Madman. Lya assisted them and I've been roleplaying her as kind and respectful of the party. They genuinely like her and I've already read Zeitvice about having the group possibly recruit her. My players have expressed...

Hello all! After a 9 months break, I'm back to running Zeitgeist again! We're currently beginning act 2 of Revelations from the mouth of a Madman. My party immediately asked to switch to working with Griento's team for the challenge. My question is, what changes in the challenge? Does Lya give...

Are there any thoughts or plans for official novels written in the Zeitgeist universe? Maybe short stories or novellas focusing around certain characters, getting into the minds of villains or side characters. Just a thought, curious on your opinions.

Hello! I am trying to figure out what happened to Benedict Pemberton between the Arms Faire in the 3rd module and everything he is doing in the 6th module. It seems at the Faire he was doing rather well for himself. The next module he writes a book called Behold, Science! And tours Risur...

Hello! Recently my group, after nearly 20 years of only playing D&D 3e, 3.5e, 4e, and most recently Pathfinder have decided to move away from d20 systems. We've been playing other systems with one shots and trying new things. Ever since the begining, one of my players said Zeitgeist feels...

Okay, this might be a long one. Im going to copy some text from the books because some of it confuses me and there are some inconsistencies. Maybe one of you can help explain it a bit better. Campaign guide. 200 years ago the connection to the plane of air was damaged, so now no spell or magic...

Hey all, I'm coming up to the point where the Eschatologists are going to kindnap Stanfield and bomb the Sharon M. Baker station. However they discovered the information of the bomb and deduced that something is going to happen on that morning from everything in the safehouse under Soknik...

Hey everyone, I have a question about the balancing of the encounters in the campaign. Now for the longest time I only had 3 players and the combat seemed relatively easy. Now I have my 4th player back again and in curious about how to balance the encounters or if I should increase the...

I have a player who stepped away from my table for a couple of months and is now coming back. He wants to play a Lamia race and we managed to make a balanced race for him to be. Now here comes the fun part, I'm looking to add Lamia to the lore and history of Ber, and have them be one of the...

Hi all. I've been reading through Zeitvice and came across a very interesting passage where Arkwright had Lya survive her encounter with the party and left the OB and Marry the King and works to usher in peace between their two nations. Now here is where he suggests replacing the next two fights...

For my particular campaign this is a far way off, however as any good storyteller I constantly read ahead. I am curious on the Rites of Rulership and how they effect the party as a whole. I can understand the Monarch him/her self will get considerable bonuses to their character. Are there any...

Hi All, I've seen some great maps people have made for this campaign so I thought why don't I make a thread where everyone can put their best maps up. Part showing off, and part to see inspiration of other maps that you all have made. My group is just about to go to the Ziggurat of Apet, So i...

Hey all, simple question here. Frequently throughout the modules it references Months. however it is shown that the calendar is 4 Seasons of 91 days each with a single day for new year. Each season comprising 13 weeks. My exact question is about the Kaybeau Fair in module 3. It says it's going...

Hey all, A bit of back story, My players hate "Roger Porter". I mean they absolutely loathe him and remind me of this at least once a session. They know that Roger Porter was at the Consulate when Nilasa died, They know he was probably the one who shot her, and they know he was pursuing the...

We finally began our adventure in Zeitgeist! I’m going to try and keep up a campaign journal but I am terrible with taking notes but i will try my best to write from memory. The introductory session was Fantastic and I was very excited to be able to run it. My players really enjoyed it as well...

I finally get to start running Zeitgeist! We just finished our long running campaign and I'm the next DM in rotation. I've been reading this campaign way back when it was still being written and I invested in both kickstarters, and I've been reading the various campaign journals here for years...

What do you do if your players kill an important NPC? Specifically Asrabey Varal who comes back in Adventure 5, and Rock Rackus who looks to be important in the final act of the campaign. Do you just have them return from the dead? If so, when? DM's of Zeitgeist, are there any other important...
