This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I may not be remembering this right, but isn't Corwin the only one able to interact with TNN's "ghosts"? Because he has Grayswandir (the NIGHT blade)...

What's the story behind that?
Running:
Dungeon Crawl Classics (influences: Elric vs. Mythos, Darkest Dungeon, Castlevania).
DCC In Space!
Star Wars with homemade ruleset (Roll&Keep type system).

I assume that the Pattern property of Corwin's blade allows it to have contact with those of Tir. We only know of one other Pattern blade out there (Werewindle) but it's possible that the spikards that Merlin has could interact as well. I would also guess that Benedict's new arm would possess this property.

Basically, we don't know what property of Greyswandir allows this, but I would guess that it has to do with the Pattern....

Remember that Greyswandir was forged on the stairs to TNN.

This was buried deep, but I wanted to give it a "bump" just to see if anyone has come up with additional thoughts on the issue.

My earlier Amber campaign never really got off the ground but I'm thinking of trying it again, so any ideas or suggestions about Tir would be appreciated.
