    "Immortal Fortress" - WotC Drops Clues About The Upcoming Storyline?

    I would really enjoy that. It would provide more room to explore the many adventure hooks that the Waterdeep/Undermountain/Skullport combo offers.

    "Immortal Fortress" - WotC Drops Clues About The Upcoming Storyline?

    Indeed. And WotC have been dropping hints about returning big figures during the last couple years, that could contribute to that kind of thing. Halaster, Khelben, they all could invest in those factions and back certain goals. Also, during the last year, Ed claimed that the Promenade has been...

    "Immortal Fortress" - WotC Drops Clues About The Upcoming Storyline?

    Part of it already is a mini setting, with Skullport and the near Promenade of the Dark Maiden. It wouldn't be that much of a stretch to present the whole dungeon as some kind of setting

    The Blood War: Part of Mordenkainen's Contents Page

    A lot of lore was published about the drow gods in 2e, especially Eilistraee (if you go to the FR Wiki, you will find exhaustive writeups of most of those gods, their followers, and their orders, like this one. Past tense is a policy of the wiki, the pages about the drow gods seem to be mostly...

    The Blood War: Part of Mordenkainen's Contents Page

    gyor They will never include that many deities. I went with the drow and elven deities listed in the SCAG, those are most likely to covered by the MToF (in addition to the Eberron ones).

    The Blood War: Part of Mordenkainen's Contents Page

    Likely. However, given the sheer number of elven deities (we're at like 19-20, if we include the FR-specific drow gods, Eberron's Vulkoor, and Ghaunadaur), that will take up quite a lot of space.

    The Blood War: Part of Mordenkainen's Contents Page

    Crawford said that the book will go in "a lot of depth about the drow pantheon". He confirmed that Eilistraee, Ghaunadaur and Vulkoor will all get sections dedicated to them in the book when asked. That leads me to think that most of the drow and elven gods will receive a writeup like the ones...

    Drizzt Do'Urden Poll: Love Him Or Hate Him?

    I don't particularly care for Drizzt. I liked the Dark Elf trilogy, but I didn't feel compelled to go further. I also generally don't like the kind of society that the drow have in the books about him. it's very, *very*, cliché/cartoonish villain. I mean, if even the very sourcebooks tell you...

    Where did they confirm this?

    List of monsters confirmed in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes

    No longer. He kept his acquired divinity, but lost much power when Azuth broke free. The MM says that he's on par with a lesser god.

    D&D Beyond: Drow in MTOFs

    Yeah, that pretty much goes by itself, but I've only seen the name Dark Seldarine appear in FR supplements. That said, it's mostly irrelevant. It's just a name. Eilistraee is the only goddess that could fit that spot (unless they create new deities or change existing ones), but one of her...

    D&D Beyond: Drow in MTOFs

    I've only seen the name Dark Seldarine mentioned in FR material, but that's what I meant in any case. The fact that Valkoor is included in the drow pantheon is because he's part of the drow pantheon of Eberron (do you call that the Dark Seldarine of Eberron?), and is therefore part of the...

    D&D Beyond: Drow in MTOFs

    Note that they didn't talk about just the Dark Seldarine, they talked about the drow pantheon. That means all the drow gods, from any world. Looking at the 3 deities mentioned by Crawford, Vulkoor is included because he is active in Eberron; Eilistraee is included because she is active on Toril...

    D&D Beyond: Drow in MTOFs

    This lore is pretty much the generic D&D version of the descent, with a twist on it. It's fine to me, and I also enjoy the new lore about the elves being able to change form in their original state. It is vaguely close to what I did in my own homebrew. I don't mind at all the blessed elves/drow...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why Forgotten Realms is Loved

    My 2c The Realms feel like a living world to me. It's so full of history, detail and lore to discover (and intrigues/mysteries left hidden within that lore), that it's like visiting a world that has seen eras being shaped by people and icons, each region with its own history and flavor. Not...

    The New D&D Adventure Is - Tomb of Annihilation!

    Well, he technically made Eilistraee for his game, which some count as Drizzt's clone even tho she's *drastically* different from him, but yeah. We're talking about writing stories, and children are full of imagination (although some have better eloquence than others), and when Ed was a child...

    D&D 5E (2014) Redemption Paladin

    I honestly like this theme. Would make for a good paladin of Eldath (she has nurtured communities of goodly, peaceful orcs), or a Silverhair Knight of Eilistraee (they refuse to use lethal force except in extreme situations, need to atone after doing so, believe everyone can change life). It'll...
