Open Call: Return of the Ring of Five Questions

Greetings Greyhawkers! With Virtual GreyhawkCon fast approaching, I am glad to see so much creativity, commentary and collaboration in the community. I'm however in one of those slumps where I don't feel like writing anything, drawing anything and most of my posts are news items. Someone asked me recently about my Ring of Five Questions column (scroll to the bottom of the linked page for examples). I used to do this column years ago back when things weren't so active in the community and I was trying to make some connections to notable Greyhawk authors (some never responded like the Paizo crew). It seems now is a good time to dust off this part of Greyhawkery one last time and this time let all my friends and fans of Greyhawk try it out.

Below is five Greyhawk-related questions. Copy and paste them into an email and send your answers to mortellan@gmail.com. Be as short or wordy as you want! I will try to feature all respondents I get until I reach my 1000th post (I expect sometime next year). Have fun with it, but be respectful (no trolls). I look forward to reading your replies. Enjoy!

p.s. If you are one of the people I interviewed previously, don't fret, you can enter again!

Ring of Five Questions 2020

Q1. What is your favorite realm or region in the World of Greyhawk setting? 

Q2. If you could actually be one Greyhawk deity which one would it be?

Q3. You have one wish. Which Greyhawk module or accessory would you do over or fix?

Q4: You're putting together an all-star Greyhawk NPC group. Who is your number one pick?

Q5. If you could possess one artifact or relic from Greyhawk lore, which would it be?

    Sorry Fozzy not how it works. I need responses emailed, so I can blog them later. Love the answers though!

    Hey Mike > thanks for doing this again.
    Are these questions for anyone or do you have to be a part of the gaming industry?

    Gary: Anyone. And I'd appreciate if they were mailed to mortellan@gmail.com
    If you post the answers in the comments section that defeats the purpose of me featuring you to the community!

    No do overs, they are all good as they are. Instead, maybe add extra ones for the unexplored areas?

    1: The Duchy of Tenh. Surrounded by Bandit Kingdoms, trolls from the Troll Fens, the Pale, and even a pass between Stonefist and the town of Calbut, there's plenty of adventure to go around.

    2: The god of bopping people on the head, St. Cuthbert!

    3: Castle Greyhawk. preferably by erasing it from history.

    4: After equivocating, I'm going to have to go with Gord.

    5: I like some of the ideas about Heward's Mystical Organ as the origin of human music and bards, so probably that.
