"I love books like this." - Ed Greenwood (excerpt from Foreword)
"When Arclath asked me what a forest was, I probably looked at him like he’d sprouted an extra head. Though, he posed a good question; if I’m writing this book to explain these locales to people who have never seen them, how would I explain a 'forest' to someone who’s lived in a desert wasteland for their entire life and never seen a stand of trees larger than a dozen? Saying ‘you just know what a forest is when you see it’ doesn’t work anymore."
- Amarune Whitewave
Amarune's Almanac Volume 1 is the first in a multipart series exploring the eight biomes of Dungeons & Dragons within the Forgotten Realms campaign setting.
Forests of the Realms gives an overview of Faerûn's various forests and their flora, fauna, and some history. It does this through both narrative prose, written from the perspective of Amarune Whitewave (the great, great granddaughter of Elminster Aumar), and through occasional notes from her husband, editor, and traveling companion Arclath Delcastle.
Contained with this 50-page tome, you'll get:
- 2 new subclasses
- the Circle of the Grove druid which seeks to expand on the land (forest) druid
- and the Sylvan Sentinel, a conclave of Rangers who are blessed by the fey to guard their realms.
- Variant rules: expansions to the Druid and Ranger classes to allow them more access to the new spells contained within this book!
