Wow, this was just evil...

I think that someone going from ''apprentice who can barely lit a flame with magic'' to ''archmage that can wipe an entire horde with a couple spells'' in a year is rather ridiculous, let alone in 33 days. Same thing goes for the other crafts.

Erin Evan's next novel comes out on the 29th of December, AFAIK.

About the prominency of Drizzt, I will just say 1 thing. 5e FR is getting around 4 novels year. After the Sundering, the setting needs a lot of updates and they are getting delivered through novels. The Sword Coast Adventurer's guide will be a comprehensive update, but it probably won't have...

I guess that if you succeed, the demons lord are banished back home (according to previous lore on outsiders, you can't really kille them on the prime) and Lolth's plan is screwed, as it relies on the DLs' absence.

Nice summarizing skills ;)

A drow (or any rare race) PC can be a good addition to a group and make for some interesting RP, but it heavily depends on the setting and story. In a world where the drow are supposed to be a rather nuanced race, like the Realms (they have different deities and factions there, even if the...

Oh, ok. Thank you.

If I may ask, is there any new FR lore in the book?

Eilistraee and Vhaeraun are worshiped in the Sword Coast area. The activity of the worshipers of Eilistraee is quite relevant in the area near Waterdeep. Besides, despite its name, if you read Steve Kenson's interview on Dragon+, the book will be an update to the whole Realms anbd its gods, with...

Uh, the MM weights 2.5 lbs and is 352 pages long. That's weird... Just how thick is RoT's cover??

Judgin by the weight on Amazon, it should be like 170-ish pages long.

;):p

Nope, this time gods are being brought back (and, in given cases, gods that people thought gone weren't actually gone at all). All in all, it is a return to the previous feel of the FR, with *many* of the iconic deities, organizations and nations of old being restored.

Of course it isn't, but c'mon, you get what I mean. No need to rub salt in the wound.

Heh, I too love the FR, but this is kind of an a** thing to say, don't you think?

Oh, yes, when the discussion doesn't become tense or spiteful, it is enjoyable. What I was saying is that if someone just deosn't like something, it is good to show them what you see in that something, but, unless the dislike completely comes from misinformation, it is really unlikely that they...

At the end of the day, most disagreements over this kind of stuff boil down to that. You try to show other people what you see in something that makes you love it, but if other people just don't like that (and I'm quite sure that they have their own valid reasons to do so), then the discussion...

The FR wiki can be a valid tool, when it cites its references. There are some really nice articles over there. IIRC, in the book, it appears that the Simbul vanished, but what was left of her (her silver fire, that she sacrificed), carried by Elminster, was then given to Mystra alongside all the...

Yes I know, but the Silver fire that the simbul gave to Elminster was then given to Mystra, possibly leading to what I said in the other post. Ed Greenwood himself commented on Candlekeep, saying that the Simbul's story wasn't fully told yet.
