Every Realms pdf I have has the maps included at the end broken into 8.5x11" sections. I don't have that particular one but I am sure it is a safe bet that the maps are included. I have been very happy with the pdf's that I have purchased from rpg now except my only teeny tiney complaint is...

Maybe things that fall into a sphere of anihilation elsewhere pop-out whole and hearty from a sphere of creation. This might seem random to an observer when it is in fact a function of what falls in from the other side. :)

Don't forget about the Aarakocra and the Dire Corbies. In Forgotten Realms the Kenku, Aarakocra and other flying races descended from the Aeree, one of the Five Creator races (or 6 if you count Dragons). Not much is known of the Aeree. They lived and dominated Faerun some 30,000 years ago...

Fiendish Dire Flumph A player in my campaign requested a flumph show up at some point, so for one encounter I created a fiendish dire flumph. I used the flumph stats from the Tome of Horrors, tacked on the fiendish template and advanced it to what I figured was appropriately "dire." The player...

Great thread! We ought to add the Planar Handbook critters and the new ones from the Monster Manual III.

Generations even in modern times are figured about 20 years apart or 2 decades per generation. There are 5 generations per century. 50 generations per Millenium.

The chaos beast disturbs me on a fundamental level. There are worse things than dying and the chaos beast is an example of that. The devourer is a close second. No matter how a monster munchs or mauls you, death should be a release not the begining of the indefinite torture of your soul.

If a Bard is performing you could use Ghost sound to make it seem like the audience is cheering or clapping more loudly than they are to help get the audience more in the mood or make a speech more persuasive. Sort of like a laugh track. If an evil noble or overlord is giving a speech, you...

In the very first original edition of D&D they actually did have Balrogs and Ents by name. When they were putting together AD&D they changed the names. I always assumed that Treant was a combination of the words "Tree" and "Giant". If that is the case then the pronunciation should probably be...
