[QUOTE="Big Mac, post: 5729401, member: 61182"] Thanks for the well thought out answers, Echohawk. As someone who is after every scrap of SJ canon, perhaps I should make my own list. ;) Sorry. I did indeed mean [I]Evermeet: Island of Elves[/I], but didn't have it in front of me and typed the name from memory. SJ expert, [URL="http://sjml.spelljammer.org/archive/mpgn/199903/22-000003.html"]Paul Westermeyr put me onto that novel[/URL]. It has several related SJ references squeezed into a story that starts from before mortal elves were created and ends up on Toril. There are elves originally living with the gods (so some Planescape fans might like the book) and eventually they migrate to conventional worlds. Then you have some elves that use uber-magic to jump from one world to another (more world-hopping than SJ so far) with the world they land on turning out to be Abeir-Toril. There is also a world full of undead elves mentioned in the story. But a world, without spelljamming ships, might not count as a SJ reference to you. But the one thing that it mentions, that definatly is of interest to SJ fans, is a world called Arborianna that is a spacefaring world inhabited by a different branch of the same race of gold elves that worldhopped to Toril earlier in the novel. That world is one that has been conquered by the scro, and a spelljamming ship of the elves from that world is manipulated into coming to Toril by the gods that are trying to undermine the peace on Evermeet. Evermeet even ends up with its own small fleet of spelljamming ships. It isn't a world-changing influence on FR by SJ, as SJ is mostly there to explain how you can get new "alien gold elves" onto Toril when a fan might expect them to only exist in Forgotten Realms, but the story would not work without the SJ stuff. Thanks. I need to buy that book, before the "collectors" steal all the copies. [/QUOTE]
