Oh, and another bit of CotN: Vampires trivia... the "Alexi" adventure was supposed to be BEFORE the Jander adventure. Some of the references within the Jander adventure (like those referring to Nira having stood along the PCs in an adventure involving the Vistani) make more sense if you read "Alexi" first, THEN the Jander tale. I have no idea why the order was switched. | Oh, and another bit of CotN: Vampires trivia... the "Alexi" adventure was supposed to be BEFORE the Jander adventure.

Type: portrait of vampire NPCs, with mini adventures

Summary of content:
- Lady Heather Shadowbrooke (druid vampiress)
Level: all
Errata: (As per Steve Miller's comment on the RL Mailing List) p. 83 (Ezra): Missing Sewer fiend HD is 7. THAC0 should be 12.
Notes: As additional info, Steve Miller had this comment on the WotC board, after the following comment by Charney:
posted by Charney: (…)But it's useful to have his (Jander) stats for those who want to use him. I'm very tempted to do so myself since he was a good character. posted by Steve Miller: And that is EXACTLY why we "ressurected" him in CotN: Vampires. Here's the short version.... While we were conceiving of "CotN: Vampires" someone (either Harold Johnson, Bill Connors, myself, or possibly even Paul Culotta--I no longer recall whom) said we should put game stats for Jander in the product. I think THAT was a great idea, as he's a neat character who had never been statted.
I thought he should be featured in an adventure that took place between chapters of "Vampire of the Mists" as there is plenty of room in that book for side stories. Harold disagreed with that idea, basically reasoning that no one would want to play a flashback adventure, so Jander had to be brought forward. If memory serves, the Mists moved Jander to Forlorn not so he could hunt vampires, but because it was the only piece of real estate available in the Core.
Oh, and another bit of CotN: Vampires trivia... the "Alexi" adventure was supposed to be BEFORE the Jander adventure. Some of the references within the Jander adventure (like those referring to Nira having stood along the PCs in an adventure involving the Vistani) make more sense if you read "Alexi" first, THEN the Jander tale. I have no idea why the order was switched.
