NWN1 Module: Shadow from a Soul on Fire

Hey everyone :)

Today, first and foremost, I was pleasantly suprised to see that a new module has been released from one of my favorite NWN1 Authors -- namely -- Chris Huntoon! 

This new module will definitely be on the forefront of my playlist for the coming weeks! :P 

Chris just releasing a new module made me think of his older work... one that, still to this day, is one of my favorites among NWN1 modules. 

Namely Shadow from a Soul of Fire (SSF), whose mere name sends chills down my spine. Yeah, that's how much I love it. 

So... why do I love it so much? It's (1) mysterious... it's (2) dark... and (3) creepy, in a cozy way. A trinity that I personally prefer very much. 

Most of Chris' work is, in one way or another, inspired by Lovecraft, so if you're familiar with Lovecraft's work, then you'll feel right at home. 

If not... then you can feel intrigued, since Lovecraft is considered to be one of the worlds most influential horror authors of all time. 

SSF has a prequel as well, which I can also heartwarmingly recommend, which is called A Halo of Flies (AHF). Chis recommends that you play this part first, since the story won't make much sense otherwise, and I agree with him.  

Neither SSF or AHF requires any kind of hakpack either, its just placing the module in your module folder -- and you're good to go.

I was just about to write some spoilers, but then I reflected upon this... should I include spoilers, or not? I'm not really sure. 

Personally, the first time I play, read or watch something, I want to feel suprised. Then I avoid spoilers. 

Once I'm done, I usually want to read up a lot on stuff that I like. I'd love to talk more about this hidden gem when it comes to the story, the events and such. 

Hmm... what to do... maybe I could ask you guys? How would you want this to work from now on, when it comes to future posts as well? I'll attach a poll below, where you can leave your opinion:


That's all for now. Here's hoping you'll have some fun with Chris Huntoon's modules, both old and new! :P Also, remember to <<subscribe to my email list>>, so you'll avoid missing any future posts!

Birger out. ✌💖
