And how much more characterisation can they stuff in there, and still be consistent with the Gollums we see in The Hobbit and LotR? His journey doesn't exactly scream "transformative character arc".

That's still kinda rude to do in a meeting, though. At least, that's what HR told me.

I came up with a campaign world which took place on a mostly-desert continent with more verdant settled areas near the coast, the main idea being to have trade between nations being carried out via sand-skimming ships that plied the desert. To answer the question "why not just have conventional...

At the Council of Elrond, the Wise debate the news of Gollum's escape from the Misty Mountains, and the forces mobilised by the Enemy to pursue him. Ranger Ryan, having given the briefing, pores through the scrolls while the debate rages, until he finds something startling. Ryan: "Son of a...

"Recurring" villain dies first round.

Coincidentally, when I used an actual Purple Worm in my Eberron game, it was at the Glowing Chasm in the Mournland, as one of a number of previously-ordinary worms and insects that had been mutated by a combination of exposure to the Mournland and feeding upon khyber dragonshards.

Heck, I have a hard time not just hard-coding them into my written notes.
