Reception
Rick Swan reviewed Elminster's Ecologies Appendix 1 for Dragon magazine #221 (September 1995).[1] He calls this package "charming", and concludes that "Whimsical asides and grumpy narration [...] makes this as fun as a fairy tale. They could have cut the 5-page encounter booklet, though, which is long on pretty pictures but short on useful information."[1]
