Oh, I have already seen that, but to me it seems that someone tweeted the text you quoted as a question, and Mearl's answer was ''who sez we aren't updating it?'' Thanks for the link, though.

What tweet? I didn't know anything about WotC even considering to allow a kickstarter for a FRCS...

Sadly, the novels are the only official source that I'm aware of, and they clarify very little about the Sundering, offering only a narrow perspective of a much larger event. The other offical source would be Ed Greenwood himself, you can ask him here, but you may run into a NDA as well as...

Totally agreed. And yes, while I agree with the people here saying that demons don't need motivations to be evil, that doesn't really make them narratively interesting. They are fascinating in the same sense the whole outer planes/creatures are: being embodied concepts. However, as main...

Where are people seeing anything that even remotely resembles Lolth in the drawing? Even assuming that they are not portraying her as half spider half drow, I still see nothing resembling a drow female there :confused: Also, with the Sundering, by Ao's edict FR gods can't directly meddle...

Actually, WotC changed the Cult of Dragon by pointing it towards a completely new direction and had Tiamat all of sudden trapped in Hell, when that wasn't the case in FR, in order to make the ToD plot fit (and Ed Greenwood had to spin how that came to happen, since WotC's official answer didn't...

For example, this Underdark story could be a good opportunity to release -among the other things- more info on Eilistraee and Vhaeraun, who have just returned, and whose return should have at least some impact on the drow (now, Drizzt's presence doesn't necessarily prevent that, but makes it...

Why the sarcasm? It's obvious that Drizzt is a marketing tool and it is known that his stuff sells better than most D&D. I've just tried to explain that (for a portion of the Drizzt haters) the hate is more due to his ''ubiquity'' than to the character itself, and that it would be nice if he...

The Realms have that likes of Szass Tam and Larloch (and Velsharoon, if you want a god) they don't have to bring in Vecna (unless the next AP isn't going to be in the Realms).

I don't think that people hate the character, rather his excessive prominence in most D&D stuff. I get that he is their icon, but we now are at like 40 novels revolving about him, and even after that, they alone still take up 2 of the 4 yearly novel releases that WotC appears to have set. I...

Don't forget that this time around the cultists will be some dimwitted, power hungry priestesses of Lolth/drow wizards, and that will totally make all the difference in the world (or perhaps it will be revealed that this is just another Lolth's plan to take over the world, when her previous one...

I wonder if this will somehow feature the followers of other drow deities (Eilistraee and Vhaeraun, who have just returned in the Sundering), or other Underdark forces (Illithids and the likes).

PDF purchases would be fine IMO, I just want the Realms updated...

I would back this kickstarter in a heartbeat.

Updated info on the post-Sundering Realms. Currently the only source of those is Ed Greenwood himself, assuming that those are not NDAs. Granted such an update wouldn't necessarily require a FRCS, but I -and a lot of other FR fans- would really appreciate a ''current state of the Realms'' kind...

Right now, the only way to obtain updated info is to ask Ed Greenwood here: http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=19841&whichpage=1 (which basically is the AMA you are asking for). He will answer your questions -unless you run into a NDA-, you can already find some updates on the...

If you really want an official take, you can directly ask Ed Greenwood over here: http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=19841&whichpage=1

Oh, I see. But still, beside Eilistraee and Vhaeraun, some currently active deities are missing from the 5e PHB list (and mainly the racial ones). Most of the Dwarven pantheon, Hoar (which is confirmed as active, since he is one of the deities served by the Order of the Gauntlet), Erevan...

You know, someone on DA actually drew a picture for that ''in your face''. It's small, but still '
