[QUOTE="Cyrinishad, post: 6970612, member: 6808925"] I haven't read or mastered all of the info either... Quite frankly I don't think anyone has even if they presume to believe that they have done so. An important part of the Realms "canon" is that it is merely the prevailing assumptions made by imperfect narrators. Players that equate "canon" to hard "facts" or "truth" are welcome to operate under that assumption, but must be prepared to have their a-priori assumptions disproved at any time. I like the Realms because it gives players the resources to explore ideas without requiring the DM input to fill in all the blanks or contradict their creativity. I don't like saying "no" to players either, but I will always reserve the right to tell them that they only knew part of the truth. ... and I very much hope that we all get support for the settings we want to use.
