[QUOTE="Kobold Avenger, post: 7656926, member: 779"] I remember there being the fan theory that the demiplane of imprisonment that Tharizdun was banished to was Ravenloft. It was an interesting theory about the nature of the dark powers and the demiplane. But now things are changed such that the theory is less viable. And then there's the completely non-canon Gord the Rogue novels that Gygax wrote, where Tharizdun destroys Oerth. Somehow I've always got the impression he's like a Dark God beyond other Dark Gods (after all Warlocks can have a pact with him). While he feels more tied to GH than other settings, but as an apocalyptic entity that must be sealed away he could show up in other settings. I guess with the idea that the adventure path must start in a generic as possible world (I wouldn't be surprised there's some plane-hopping involved), so FR he ends up in, as I don't think they're going to bother with campaign setting books just yet. They'll probably try to tie elemental evil with the Vaati, Queen of Chaos and the rod of seven parts too, since it's another part of D&D lore they want to tie up neatly with the rest of their IP.
