The following is an entry
in my series on Ultimate Greyhawk. Much like how comics and
movies will reboot a franchise with a new take on an old concept,
this is my personal re-imagining of the Greyhawk Campaign Setting
beginning with the venerable town of Hommlet.
Key to the Village

The following locations are
numbered based on how they appear on the map of the village of
Hommlet as found in the module T1-4 The Temple of Elemental Evil.
4. Widow Finnch's Farm
The Widow Jellek Finnch is a
crazy cat lady. Townfolk believe that after the death of her husband
and sons during the Battle of Emridy's Meadow she went a little nuts.
The truth of the matter is that Jellek is a Witch and her family
still lives with her. After the battle, in the dark of night Jellek
made a pact with otherworldly entities and through a profane ritual
she transformed her husband and children into ghouls that live in
warrens and tunnels that criss cross the town. While her numerous
feline companions may look like cats they are in fact cat-things,
part cat, part familiar, part something else. Ghoul tunnels attach to
the crypt at the church and the Inn and many other buildings in the
town.More importantly these tunnels have invisible gates that connect
to a Dream Realm and the labyrinth of tunnels beneath Moat House.
