[QUOTE="TheYeti1775, post: 5390300, member: 20914"] I think you could like the Grey Box era of the Realms. Many of us use that for our Realms and just ignore all the cannon after that as it didn't fit our worlds, or how we wanted to play. The books weren't so bad until the Avatar Trilogy which really shook up the world when they made the revision including all that. There is a whole other feel to FR between Pre and Post Avatar Trilogy. Hard to explain, just is. For myself FR lost me totally with the 4E revision and the changes in world events. While the reboot was needed, to me the hundred year jump was too much in a setting that has regularly progressed itself year by year till that point. You might also try a few third party sourcebooks as well. Fantasy Flight's Dawnforge has a definite points of light and everything is new and fresh feel. The gods aren't even gods yet, just Immortals that grant powers. Different World's Valus (written by a member here) is another one of those fresh worlds. Basically an Island continent that can be fitted into almost any other world you wish. I know others will have quite a few they could offer up as samples for ya. [/QUOTE]
