Everything you need to know about Iuz
17 July 2000
Format:Paperback
This book is set at the time of the From the Ashes boxed set. It has connections to the Marklands Greyhawk Sourcebook, but this is not required.
If you get a chance to buy this book, jump on it. This is the best Greyhawk sourcebook I have seen. Iuz the Evil details the holdings of Iuz, the evil demigod of the flanaess, just after the signing of The Pact of Greyhawk where the Greyhawk Wars ended. The sourcebook begins giving an excellent history of Iuz, from his birth to the end of the Greyhawk Wars. It explains Iuz's fears and aspirations for the future. Iuz's priesthood is examined and new spells and magic items are added for his faithful. All of Iuz's lands are detailed including the howling hills, Dorakaa (the city of skulls)and the rest of the Land of Iuz as well as the occupied territories (Horned Society, Shield Lands, Bandit Kingdoms, and the Land of Tenh). Included are the stats for Iuz's Armies and all the key players good and evil (mostly evil) including the dreaded members of the Boneheart. The sourcebook also gives adventure ideas for low levels all the way to the highest of levels. Another note of interest is that the areas described are the location for several previous adventures including The City of Skulls, White Plume Mountain, The Return to White Plume Mountain, and several others.

A classic setting and great resource
17 Nov 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Seriously, if you are familiar with Greyhawk, and intend to use Oerth as your campaign setting, this can be an invaluable book for you. The detail of Iuz, his lands, clergy, motivations, enemies, etc...is spot on. As you well know, the three greatest evils to face the Flanaess are Iuz, the Scarlet Brotherhood (representing Tharizdun), and Vecna (at least that is how i perceive it), with a nod the the Elder Elemental Cult as well. This handles Iuz's part efficiently and in great detail. So many adventure ideas can be had simply by reading this one accessory, i consider it to be an essential piece of your D&D library, as it pertains to Greyhawk.
It can be difficult and/or expensive to acquire these days, but a worthwhile investment if you can keep the cost under $50. Just a further price tip...unless you are planning to buy and sell, get a game used copy. You will save $50 easily, and still get exactly what you are expecting.
If you have any other questions, feel free to write me. Otherwise....
Enjoy!

Iuz the Evil

Good module and lots of information provided but I was surprised that there was no description of Iuz himself. I know he is covered in other game products but he really should have been covered in the one that bears his name.
