Prism May I know if Moander appears in the book?

That's still remarkable though, I wish were able to go on for so long.

Thanks for answering. Yes, I thought of that, but IME, even with those solutions, it takes a remarkable dedication to stay decently focused for long periods of time, especially going through the night. I'm kind of the opposite of that. I always try to prepare things rather meticulously, and...

These kind of sessions really make me curious. Don't people get tired, or weary during such a long time? Do they manage to keep immersion and actively RP their character? Don't they lose focus? This is especially true for DMs, who have to interpret so many NPCs, describe the world and the...

Do Skullport/the Promenade get any coverage?

Protection spells would also be allowed, I guess.

Neither do I. Probably the only insight we're going to get will be nuggets hidden in the novels, or --if you're lucky enough to not run into a NDA-- by asking Ed Greenwood. I like having info and updates about them being given through stories, even small appearances, *but* yeah, we've got to...

Yes, I see what you mean. I don't really that kind of approach, because if I want to change something, I have no problem doing so, but I still want to know what things are like in the Realms. However, it works for many, so... With their storylines, WotC has been using ''uber'' beings, even...

D&D draws upon Tolkien, but it also draws upon mythology and fantasy in general. Tolkien's influence is definitely there, as it is for a lot of modern fantasy.

Authors have been featuring gods in their novels quite often as of recent, though. You get little updates, like Ed Greenwood does, or even full blown scenes directly involving gods (I'm told that RAS did it in his latest book).

Yes, I see. But the book does give some description of the gods themselves and what they do, so it is seems to be about both. In fact there's a religion section, plus a god section

Yes, I guess that it makes sense. He could be currently answering to prayers invoking both Lathander and Amaunator.

Well, thanks for the info, but that's rather surprising. Sounds like a retcon of what was said in a novel published when? 2 years ago? Meh...

So, it lists Amaunator and Lathander, and it says nothing about the fact that they're two faces of the same god?

Yes, that's the quote from the DMG that I was talking about.

Why? I'm not really a fan of Maztica, but there are people who like it, and would be happy to see something about it, probably even a small update. It wouldn't be game-breaking, as people who don't like that land could easily ignore it in their campaign, while those who like it would know that...

It's in the DMG, but IIRC it doesn't explicitly confirm its return.

Regarding the map, Mike Schley tweeted: https://twitter.com/schley/status/657709777536090112 Mithreinmaethor it's explained in one of the Sundering novels. IIRC, Lathander and Amaunator are basically two faces of the same god, and one of them emerges accordingly to what ''the world needs''...

Right, sorry for that irritating behaviour. I have an OCD, and sometimes it shows.

Hm, I see. But does the list refer to the current era/post-Sundering, or is it just up in the air? And thanks for answering my questions.
