BoEF: Book of Erotic Fantasy

(...what? :p )

the book of Elf pr0n.



3.x = 3.11ed for workgroups

if you goto the WotC site they used to have a list of the abbrv. on the message board try trollbill's dictionary.

I haven't been able to find anything on the net, so I was wondering if someone can enlighten me as to all the acronyms (short forms) used for WotC D&D books (3rd edition and 3.5e)? Here are the ones I know for sure:

BoED = Book of Exhalted Deeds
BoVD = Book of Vile Darkness
DMG = Dungeon Master's Guide
FRCS = Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting
MM = Monsters Manual
MM2 = Monsters Manual II
MM3 = Monsters Manual III
MoF = Magic of Faerun
PHB = Players Handbook
RoD = Races of Destiny
RoS = Races of Stone
RoW = Races of the Wild

Thanks!
WotC themselves often use different acronyms for some of the books you listed. They have lists of acronyms in their books. Two examples for different use:

BV = Book of Vile Darkness
Mag = Magic of Faerun

You are probably capable of finding out yourself what EL, FP, FF, LD, Mon, PF, Rac, SK, Una or Und stand for :).

Do you have a direct link? There have been "slight problems" with WotC messageboard search engine (read: it isn't functioning) for a while now... at least for me.

Thanks for all the help, everyone. I needed this information for my SSA-X2 D&D Character Sheet, as I wanted to make sure I was usin recognizeable acronyms.

Does anyone have the acronyms for the following:

- Frostburn
- Sandstorm
- Draconomicon

Thanks again!

I'll guess Epic Level Handbook, Faiths & Pantheons, Fiend Folio, Lords of Darkness, Monsters of Faerûn, Players' Guide to Faerûn, Races of Faerûn, Serpent Kingdoms, Unapproachable East, Underdark.

Because it's mostly the FR books that references so many other books. Core sourcebooks usually avoid referring to more than a handful (like psionics, vile, exalted, and maybe the bestiaries).
