If you look in the 1e Monster Manual II at the list of undetailed demon lords/princes, she's on the list ... however in this instance it's someone who may have borrowed the name ... --Eric

Just in case it's of interest, there's a little known "fourth" adventure in the series. See "Khamsa's Folly" in Dungeon #40. --Eric

And Frukatha gave a link to a free PDF version of it above. --Eric

I blame the infinitesimal growth of science/technolgoy on the presence of magic. Compare magic to science/technology. Both enable you to do incredible things, but magic is largely the province of individuals. (A select few know spells. A select few hold magic items.) Science/technology, once...

There's an adventure designed to be "stuck in the middle" of CoTSQ in Dungeon. I don't remember the issue number, but it was a side trek into a mind flayer prison. --Eric

The chief insight I picked up from Shrek II is that an ogre is really a human with the half-frog template. --Eric

I'm running a game on Saturday afternoon at 3 PM set in Waterdeep, playtesting an upcoming adventure. --Eric

The web enhancement for Cloak & Dagger (on the WoTC website) has more info on Westgate. --Eric

The best information is found in FRS1 - The Dalelands, a 2e product by Rich Baker. Do you have that available? --Eric

In "Sea of Fallen Stars", there's a suggestion that Cthulu-like "old gods" dwell in the depths of the Trench of Lopok (off the coast of Altumbel). I might suggest tying any "Far Realms" or "alienist"-type character to that little buried (pun intended) tidbit. --Eric

I've never been a fan of "by coincidence, an ancient evil JUST woke up plotlines ..." My first question is always "Why this year/decade/century and not last or next?" In a game setting that lasts for many years, there will over time be a disproportionate number of such events in a short period...

You can also find information (albeit historical information) on Starmantle and its environs in the novel "Temptation of Elminster" by Ed Greenwood. I don't remember for sure, but I'm guessing that Starmantle gets briefly addressed in "Sea of Fallen Stars" as well. Finally, there's a tidbit of...

Khaasta is another possibility. (I can't recall if they are in the Fiend Folio or MMII.) Further information can be found in SK. --Eri

You can find a conversion of the Ondonti here: www.ericlboyd.com/dnd, go to Realmslore, then Monsters. --Eric

We included a lot of monsters here: http://www.ericlboyd.com/dnd, go to Realmslore, then Monsters. --Eric

I'm not sure if the modules have been converted, but we did convert (to 3e) a certain undead high level NPC from "The Lost Level." See www.ericlboyd.com/dnd, go to Realmslore, then Monsters, search for "Bandaerl". --Eric

While there are tabaxi (cat people) in the Realms, they are native to Maztica, not the Jungles of Chult. The "Tabaxi" of Chult are actually a human tribe, first detailed in FRM1 - The Jungles of Chult, now referred to as "Chultans" in products such as Races of Faerun to avoid the confusion...

FRQ2 was pretty bad (based on a read, not playing it) both in playability and in ties to the Realms. I10 was pretty good, although it's not well integrated with the Realms either. X10 was very good, if I remember correctly, although it's been a long time. (It was for basic D&D, set in the world...

What spells (if any) will banish/dismiss a nature's ally? (Compare dismissal and banishment against summon nature's ally I.) I'm assuming dismissal/banishment won't work. --Eric

If you want to go the "Tharizdun-like" cult route, you might look at Gargauth, Ghaunadaur, or Moander. The first two are detailed in Faiths & Pantheons (as well as Powers & Pantheons and Demihuman Deities, respectfully). The latter is detailed in Faiths & Avatars (not in 3e, because its dead). I...
