David 'Jester' Gibson For those of you who haven’t heard of MotRD this is it in one sentence. It’s Ravenloft only with even less magic, weaker heroes and set in the ‘real’ world during the 1890s. That about sums it up.
Except the world is called ‘The Gothic Earth’ and instead of the Dark Powers there is a single entity that is definitely and unarguably evil. This was a 2E boxed set that is being republished/revamped by S&S in December of 2004 and was featured in the RPGA with their Living Death Campaign. It is no longer just television and movies, even in Role Playing Games now there are no more new ideas! Back on topic, inside the MotRD Boxed Set was the main book and three (count em three!) adventures along with a reasonably useful DM screen and both a poster and a poster map. Personally, after reading through the adventures and main book, I thought the product would have been better served if only one or two adventures were included and the remaining book(s) put to other use. It can be argued that more than one adventure was necessary to aid new or less skilled DMs in the designing of adventures suitable for the Gothic Earth; help craft adventures that would not just end up being dungeon crawls with revolvers and men in top hats. However, a single adventure and list of possible adventure threads and ideas would have proved far more useful to this.
As such, the setting, while very interesting, is simply underdeveloped with no listed NPCs and a few scant villains who are sparsely detailed. Hints of where in literature or history they were lifted from would have been of immense use for future reading and research. Additionally, of the 128 pages, only 18 are devoted to the land and world. While it is essentially a dark reflection of our world more thought should have been put into describing how it was a century earlier. There is no large timeline detailing events and history, which would have been useful and saved much wandering through libraries, especially for those people without ready access to large research resources. Likewise, much is made of the oft-mentioned Qabals in the book and they play an important role in its histories, but not a single one written about in detail. The only contemporary Qabal mentioned, save the old and presumably defunct ones in the history, is mentioned in one of the adventures.
