[QUOTE="Amrynn Moonshadow, post: 153313, member: 382"] you know . . . some of the old 2e FR suppliments / adventures and stuff describe time travel. maybe a quest to find a long thought dead chronomancer (possibly on some other plane) and bring him/her back to toril and beaseech them to transport you and a whole bunch o' people back in time may be one way to adventure in Myth Drannor. the drow, iirc, are infesting in cormanthor (like the elven court), no one group has sway over myth drannor. myth drannor is filled to the brim with high level monsters though. according to the books ancient red dragons are afraid of the things there. you'd need an army to retake it, and the elves are currently pretty weak because of the whole sharn wall and return of the shade enclave deal. (stinking phaemins sp?) it will take years and years, and some sort of positive evidence that it can be re-took before the elves of evermeet decide to help out. additionally, a little help from the drow splinter groups would be needed, for who else know how to deal with mind flayers as well as they? I don't see how this can be done by 8th level PC's, even as subordinates to high level elven mages and their cohorts. (it's not like evermeet is strong either, as their most ancient protections are destroyed) the elves are currently like a wounded animal, but the kind that senses that if it extends itself too much, more of its' blood will be shed. *myth drannors current inhabitants aren't getting stronger *the drow in cormanthor are getting stronger, so they are a bigger issue *once the drow are out, then the elves can start healing the land, and have the place to mount a fullscale attack from *taking out the drow would take a very long time, but the dales would want them out too, as the dales are being harried by the dark ones a party would be able to go to deepingdale, and read up on lore about myth drannor in their history archives. also from there they could be informed by a servant to the queen that they want a small group to assess the 'situation' in their elven woods. as the retreat is over, the elves may need a lewis & clarke expidition into their old homes to just see how much has changed. it could precipitate into a future war / battle for land, but right now, the elves would probably need reconaisance. this could be fun? sneaking past drow, elves aren't against assassignation (esp. not vs. drow), i know my elf pc wants to take our that jizz the lame guy from the frcs . . . and then scouting around mythdrannor. as for getting from the west coast (sword coast) to the old forest home of cormanthyr, the black road isn't a good idea. elves aren't good as the whole desert deal, there are problems looming in that area (according to the cannon), including a fight in upper cormyr vs. shades, and the black netword (zhents) aren't keen on helping the elves at this point. try going through the western heartlands, through south cormyr, the mountain pass, and then into deepingdale (which has a significant sympathetic population to elves). and the FR is fine for me. and that's all that count. people who don't like it sure know a whole lot about it, in correlation to how much they apparently hate it.
