Explore Airspur (4e Forgotten Realms)

I saw this article and noticed that there wasn't any discussion about it.

First, the image on the first page is really awesome. What a cool way to represent what has happened to the Sea of Fallen Stars.

It’s no wonder many consider Airspur the most beautiful city in all Faerûn, nor do they question how it earned its moniker as the Brightest of the Fallen Stars.

These are the kinds of pure fluff articles that I hope to see in Dragon regarding the Forgotten Realms. And it looks like they will do more to feature this location.

If you’d like to know more about Airspur, check out Dragon #378 when it comes out. This article is the first in a short series about the city, and you’ll find the next installment in the August issue.

And there's the RPGA adventure "The Depths of Airspur" that is going to start a series of adventures in the city.

Nice..... Very nice.

Yes, great article and it does whet my appetite for more. Just wish I could get the RPGA adventures as well.

I wish the intro adventure in the campaign guide had instead been an article like this describing a city (with a good map- how I love good maps [and the corollary to that: how I hate the FRCG maps]) with a multitude of adventure hooks.

I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

Ahhh, but you can!

Just sign up for LFR (RPGA), take the DM's Herald test -- which isn't tough and it's open book -- and you can set up a game and download the adventure.

Anyone can do it, really.

Good article. I could use more art, though. It's so hard to picture side views and 3D views of a city like that.

I wish they had used a new piece of art for the Genasi at the very end of the article. As a guy that really loves to play them, I find it tough to find lots of good pictures!

Eager to see what August brings.

Look no further!

Back in June, WotC art director Jon Schindehette held a contest (as he does every other week), with Airspur as the theme. Lots of artists (nyself included) took part: ArtOrder: Tuesday Challenge - Environment

Wow, Klaus, very interesting. I didn't know this. It certainly sends signals that Airspur may be a (relatively) well supported location in the 4R.

Thanks but to become a member you need to get a application card which I have not been able to find in Singapore or Australia which are the two countries I live in. How I wish I could enrol online....

Klaus... love your work!

Details on how to join are in the FAQ under "How do I become a member?" (they cover the standard method first, and then mention the alternative).

I'm interested in knowing more about the Virushead. I hope we see more of it the later articles on Airspur.
